TypeScript Compiler Hooks

Installation

For Project Specific tsc:

yarn add tsc-hooks --dev

For Global tsc:

yarn global add tsc-hooks

Getting Started

Example tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "dist"
  },
  "include": [ "src/**/*" ],
  "exclude": [ "src/**/*.txt" ],
  "hooks": [ "copy-files" ] // hooks is a new property you can add to tsconfig to add custom hooks
  
  /* For more hooks look below... */
}

Hooks are executed in the same order as defined in tsconfig.jsons hook property.

Available Hooks

Hook ID Description Author
copy-files tsc does not copy over extra files like .xml, .txt, .html, etc. after compilation. This hook fixes this by copying over files specified in "include". It also ignores files specified in "exclude". Mark Auger (swimauger)
file-permissions This hook sets permissions to files after tsc has completed. joel(dderjoel)

Examples

file-permissions

  1. tsc compiles index.ts to ./dist/index.js
  2. The copy-files-hook will copy the src/helperProgram.bin to ./dist/helperProgram.bin
  3. The file-permissions-hook will set the permissions r-xr--r-- to ./dist/{helperProgram.bin, index.js} (assuming ./src/index.ts has a shebang like #!/usr/bin/env node, one can now execute ./dist/index.js)

Expample-tsconfig.json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "dist"
  },
  "include": [ "src/index.ts", "src/helperProgram.bin" ],
  "exclude": [ "src/**/*.txt" ],
  "hooks": [ "copy-files", "file-permissions" ] 
  "filePermissions": {
    "./dist/helperProgram.bin": "0544",
    "./dist/index.js": "0544"
  }
}

What Can TSC Hooks Do?
