Please use resolve-tspaths instead! It is a rewrite and tested version of this package.
@benyap/tscpaths
This is a fork of joonhocho's tscpaths. Credit goes to joonhocho for the original code.
If you use Typescript's
path mapping
feature (by setting baseUrl
and paths
in tsconfig.json
), you may have
found that transpiling with tsc
doesn't convert your aliases to proper
relative paths. This causes problems as the transpiled code can't actually run
with those path aliases - you'll get a "module not found" error.
Use this package after tsc
transpilation to replace path aliases with relative
paths so that you can develop using path aliases whilst still being able to ship
working JavaScript code.
