What is this?

This package exports a set of utilities for working with TypeScript configuration files.

When should I use this?

This package can be used to load tsconfig files, resolve path aliases, and normalize user options for the TypeScript Compiler API.

Install

This package is ESM only.

yarn add @flex-development/tsconfig-utils

From Git:

yarn add @flex-development/tsconfig-utils@flex-development/tsconfig-utils

See Git - Protocols | Yarn for details on requesting a specific branch, commit, or tag.

Use

Let's say a developer wants to run a TypeScript file using node. The developer has a tsconfig.json with path alias configurations.

They implement loader.mjs (and for good measure, typings/node/loader.d.ts too 😉):

/**
 * @file Custom Loader Hooks
 * @module loader
 * @see https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#loaders
 */

import * as mlly from '@flex-development/mlly'
import * as pathe from '@flex-development/pathe'
import * as tscu from '@flex-development/tsconfig-utils'
import * as tutils from '@flex-development/tutils'
import * as esbuild from 'esbuild'
import { fileURLToPath, pathToFileURL } from 'node:url'

// add support for extensionless files in "bin" scripts
// https://github.com/nodejs/modules/issues/488
mlly.EXTENSION_FORMAT_MAP.set('', mlly.Format.COMMONJS)

/**
 * URL of tsconfig file.
 *
 * @type {import('node:url').URL}
 * @const tsconfig
 */
const tsconfig = mlly.toURL('tsconfig.json')

/**
 * TypeScript compiler options.
 *
 * @type {tscu.CompilerOptions}
 * @const compilerOptions
 */
const compilerOptions = tscu.loadCompilerOptions(tsconfig)

/**
 * Determines how the module at the given `url` should be interpreted,
 * retrieved, and parsed.
 *
 * @see {@linkcode LoadHookContext}
 * @see https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#loadurl-context-nextload
 *
 * @async
 *
 * @param {string} url - Resolved module URL
 * @param {LoadHookContext} context - Hook context
 * @return {Promise<LoadHookResult>} Hook result
 */
export const load = async (url, context) => {
  // get module format
  context.format = context.format ?? (await mlly.getFormat(url))

  // validate import assertions
  mlly.validateAssertions(url, context.format, context.importAssertions)

  /**
   * File extension of {@linkcode url}.
   *
   * @type {pathe.Ext | tutils.EmptyString}
   * @const ext
   */
  const ext = pathe.extname(url)

  /**
   * Source code.
   *
   * @type {tutils.Optional<esm.Source<Uint8Array | string>>}
   * @var source
   */
  let source = await mlly.getSource(url, { format: context.format })

  // transform typescript files
  if (/^\.(?:cts|mts|tsx?)$/.test(ext) && !/\.d\.(?:cts|mts|ts)$/.test(url)) {
    // resolve path aliases
    source = await tscu.resolvePaths(source, {
      conditions: context.conditions,
      ext: '',
      parent: url,
      tsconfig
    })

    // resolve modules
    source = await mlly.resolveModules(source, {
      conditions: context.conditions,
      parent: url
    })

    // transpile source code
    const { code } = await esbuild.transform(source, {
      format: ext === '.cts' ? 'cjs' : 'esm',
      loader: ext.slice(/^\.[cm]/.test(ext) ? 2 : 1),
      minify: false,
      sourcefile: fileURLToPath(url),
      sourcemap: 'inline',
      target: `node${process.versions.node}`,
      tsconfigRaw: { compilerOptions }
    })

    // set source code to transpiled source
    source = code
  }

  return { format: context.format, shortCircuit: true, source }
}

/**
 * Resolves the given module `specifier`.
 *
 * Adds supports for:
 *
 * - Path alias resolution
 * - Extensionless file and directory index resolution
 *
 * @see {@linkcode ResolveHookContext}
 * @see https://nodejs.org/api/esm.html#resolvespecifier-context-nextresolve
 *
 * @async
 *
 * @param {string} specifier - Module specifier
 * @param {ResolveHookContext} context - Hook context
 * @return {Promise<ResolveHookResult>} Hook result
 * @throws {Error}
 */
export const resolve = async (specifier, context) => {
  const { conditions, parentURL: parent } = context

  // resolve path alias
  specifier = await mlly.resolveAlias(specifier, {
    aliases: tscu.loadPaths(tsconfig),
    conditions,
    cwd: pathToFileURL(compilerOptions.baseUrl),
    parent
  })

  /**
   * Resolved module URL.
   *
   * @type {import('node:url').URL}
   * @const url
   */
  const url = await mlly.resolveModule(specifier, {
    conditions,
    parent: parent?.startsWith('file:') ? parent : specifier
  })

  return {
    format: await mlly.getFormat(url),
    shortCircuit: true,
    url: url.href
  }
}

The developer creates scratch.ts to test their custom loader hooks:

/**
 * @file Scratch
 * @module scratch
 */

import { resolvePaths } from '@flex-development/tsconfig-utils'
import { dedent } from 'ts-dedent'

const code = dedent`
  import type { ResolveAliasOptions } from '#src/interfaces'
  import * as internal from '#src/internal'
  import loadCompilerOptions from '#src/utils/load-compiler-options'
  import * as mlly from '@flex-development/mlly'
`

console.debug(await resolvePaths(code, { ext: '', parent: import.meta.url }))

Running the file with node --loader=./loader.mjs ./scratch yields:

import type { ResolveAliasOptions } from './src/interfaces'
import * as internal from './src/internal'
import loadCompilerOptions from './src/utils/load-compiler-options'
import * as mlly from '@flex-development/mlly'

Pleased with their work, they crack open a cold Red Bull 😊

`normalizeImportsNotUsed(option)`

Converts the given option into a programmatic importsNotUsedAsValues option.

Types

This package is fully typed with TypeScript.

Interfaces

`tsconfig-types`

This package re-exports TypeScript definitions from tsconfig-types. This is primarily for the convenience of TypeScript users who do not hoist packages, but may need to import definitions used in this package.

mlly — ECMAScript module utilities
tsconfig-types — TypeScript definitions for tsconfig.json
