Use typescript-node gem which can handle /// <reference>

[tkawachi]

I've created typescript-node gem which just compiles TypeScript with Node.js + tsc command.
It seems that it is working with /// . It will fix #5

[tkawachi]

Oops travis-ci complains. I'll check it.

[klaustopher]

Could you please add tests that show that the /// works?

[tkawachi]

I'll try.

[klaustopher]

Oh, I forgot: Thanks for the improvement ;) Didn't really have time to work on this and this makes it really usable.

One more question ... Does it check in any way if node.js is available, I didn't see it in any of the dependencies in your node gem, or am I overlooking something?

[tkawachi]

It fails on node command execution when invoking Open3.popen3() if there is no node command in PATH.
I don't know a proper place to check command existence. Do you have any advice?

[klaustopher]

I have looked around for a few minutes and couldn't find anything ... So I guess this is the only way to go ... I don't really like it since this requires people to read documentation instead of just dropping in the gem and using it ... Let me think a bit about this.

[tkawachi]

I've changed typescript-node-ruby gem to raise a command an error when require "typescript-node" is called if node command is not found. An error message is rather descriptive than before.

typescript-ruby/typescript-node-ruby@6f3cf7f

Is this gem updated for references now - it doesn't seem to be working for me

Thanks!

No it isn't ... I think I'll just merge in the requirement for node and we'll use that ...
