tstc(1)

tstc wraps TypeScript compiler to allow transformer plugins.

tstc does its best to keep up with TypeScript releases. We do this by keeping the wrapper shallow and small.

Usage

Installation

Install using npm

npm i -g typescript-transformer

Then use it just like tsc:

tstc my-file.ts

Every command line flag that's supported by tsc is supported by `tst.

Adding a plugin

Install plugins from npm and add it under tstPlugins under compilerOptions.

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "target": "es5",
        "module": "commonjs",
        "outDir": "dist",
        "tstcPlugins": [
            { "name": "sample-tstc-plugin" }
        ]
    }
}

Pulgins are applied with the same order of tstcPlugins array.

Existing plugins

• CSS Modules plugin

Writing a plugin

A tstc plugin exports a function that conforms to TSTCPlugin interface as default exports.

import { TSTCPlugin } from 'tstc';

export default const plugin: TSTCPlugin = (transform) => {
    // Code here
    transform((node) => {
        return node;
    });
}

The "main" field of your plugin package.json should point to JavaScript file that exports the plugin function using CommonJS module.exports.
