parcel-plugin-typescript

Enhanced TypeScript integration for Parcel.

Differences with Parcel native support

While Parcel has built-in transpiling support for TypeScript, this plugin provides additional features.

If you only need transpiling then this plugin might not be necessary. You can see this plugin as a Parcel version of awesome-typescript-loader or ts-loader.

Features

• Type checking:
  Checking your TypeScript code for errors, in a separate process for speed.
• Path mappings:
  Rewriting your import on the fly accordingly to your paths and baseUrl compiler options.
• Custom AST transformers: Use your own TypeScript transformers

Upcoming features

• TSLint support

Angular Support

Angular support has been moved to parcel-plugin-angular.

Installation

yarn add parcel-plugin-typescript

or

npm install parcel-plugin-typescript

Configuration

For configuration, you can pass a parcel-plugin-typescript object in your tsconfig.json:

{
  "compilerOptions": {...},
  // the plugin options
  "parcel-plugin-typescript": {
    // If true type-checking is disabled
    "transpileOnly": false
  }
}
