Cannot start program in typescript-migration branch
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Hi,
I'm trying to help with typescript-migration but have a problem with set up local development.
Problem:
npm run tsc command not generate .js file but print help message instead.
step to reproduce:
- clone project and check out
typescript-migration
branch - run
npm install
- run
npm run build
expected behavior: get build js file of ts file in dist folder
I think tsconfig file is missing here. I tried add tsconfig file in root folder and tsc is working fine.
result after add tsconfig
Hi @ptantanis thanks for pointing this out and apologies for responding so late. The ts migration work has been on hold for quite a while and I figured I probabaly missed something. Not sure when I'll have time to pick it back up, but will double check to see if i can get the config committed at the very least. From my memory i recall getting stuck on a fairly large portion of the work that was taking a little longer than expected, which kinda blocked getting the community involved.
I'll keep this issue open until I can get that updated.
@ptantanis are you still seeing an issue here? Made some updates to the typescript-migration branch since this issue was opened. We will close this soon if we don't hear back. Thanks!
i'm going to leave this open, after pulling everything into the typescript-migration
branch, i'm seeing issues running the app locally
The error above isn't 100% accurate anymore, but seeing the following mention in the logs
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
^
ReferenceError: exports is not defined in ES module scope
This file is being treated as an ES module because it has a '.js' file extension
Haven't had time to debug and figure out what configs need to change yet. Open to PRs to get this fixed.
