Custom plugins #41

Open edsrzf opened 4 years ago

edsrzf commented 4 years ago

I'm playing with ts-migrate on our code base and have developed some custom plugins which are useful for us, but probably not general enough to be worth including in ts-migrate itself. I would like to have a way to run these plugins without having to maintain a fork of ts-migrate.

Is this something that the project would consider supporting?

ts-migrate-plugins are already used as a separate npm package. You can create a separate package for other plugins as well and use it in the same way.

Perhaps we could add some documentation that would make it clearer how to do this?

edsrzf commented 4 years ago

So if I want to run custom plugins, it's expected that I write my own CLI-like tool? That seems kinda reasonable but just want to be clear.

Rudeg commented 4 years ago

@edsrzf Yeah, that's one option. Another one would be to create a separate command, for example like reignore In addition, it may be used with the --plugin flag (like you mentioned in PR)

edsrzf commented 4 years ago

That would work for plugins that live in ts-migrate-plugins, but I'm asking about plugins which I believe are not general enough to belong in that package, and so I would not look to open source them.

@edsrzf oh, sorry, I miss understand you :( Your own CLI-like tool would be an option (easiest one) or it might be possible to do easier with exposed NodeJS API, however it's not implemented.
