see https://github.com/dominikg/tsconfck/issues/31 and https://github.com/dominikg/tsconfck/discussions/18 for previous discussions around sync apis.

Mostly the sheer difficulties of contributing to get-tsconfig
. I've tried to add ${configDir}
support for get-tsconfig
, but I can't even get its existing test cases to pass after upgrading to TypeScript 5.5. On the other hand, tsconfck
already has full ${configDir}
support.
it might still be easier to add support for that in get-tsconfig (a little surprised it isn't supported yet) than bringing sync support to tsconfck.
There is an old branch linked in the Discussion above but from what i remember it wasn't easy to have a single codebase that supports sync and async. And it probably got worse since then because of the changes around the cache.
Happy to look into contributions that add sync support, but afraid that would require a major refactor to ensure keeping it lean and without duplicated logic.
For the features around implementing a resolver or paths matcher, it is more difficult to justify adding them to tsconfck. I think they would better live in separate packages and shared between get-tsconfig, vite-tsconfig-paths etc.
tsconfck focus is
A utility to find and parse tsconfig files without depending on typescript
what to do with the output is out of it's scope.
Describe the feature
I recently became the co-maintainer of the
eslint-import-resolver-typescript
and theeslint-plugin-import-x
projects, and I am working on replacingget-tsconfig
w/tsconfck
. I have faced a few difficulties in implementing that because of the lack of the following features:A Usecase
ESLint rules are synchronous, so we need a synchronous API to get the tsconfig file.
We also need a resolver that implements a module resolver interface that implements the TypeScript resolving algorithm (https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/blob/3ccbe804f850f40d228d3c875be952d94d39aa1d/src/compiler/moduleNameResolver.ts#L2465):
Alternatives
I could use libraries like synckit to force convert async API to sync, but it is less ideal.
As for the matcher/resolver, I could copy codes from vite-tsconfig-paths, which IMHO is also not ideal.
