Unable to generate declaration files d.ts

klinki commented 6 years ago

Hi guys, I have problem with generating .d.ts files. tsc won't generate them for me, even though I have declaration: true in tsconfig.json.

I tried following 5 cases:

having no include or files section - in this case, tsc complained about overwriting existing d.ts files in output. It is similar to this issue https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/16749
having no include or files section and outputDir in exclude
having no include or files section and specifying declarationDir (and also having it in exclude)
having includes section
having files section

except the first case, which at least showed error, none of other 4 cases showed any error, neither or produced d.ts files as expected.

TypeScript Version: 2.0.10, 2.4.2, 2.6.2, next, I haven't tried on any other

tsconfig.json Code

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "noImplicitAny": true,
        "module": "commonjs",
        "target": "es5",
        "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
        "experimentalDecorators": true,
        "declaration": true,
        "moduleResolution": "node",
        "outDir": "./dist",
        "declarationDir": "./dec",
        "noEmitOnError": false
    },
    "include": [
      "src/index.ts"
    ],
    "exclude": [
      "node_modules",
      "tests"
    ]
}

(You can also have a look on my repo, it is really small one: https://github.com/klinki/HumanizeDuration.ts/tree/separate-languages )

Expected behavior: .d.ts files should be generated when declaration: true is in tsconfig.json

Actual behavior: It is not generated.

I can not see this locally. if you believe this is a compiler bug and not a configuration issue, please provide a minimal reproduction of the issue.

sorry, it wasn't in master, but in separate-languages branch which was on the link. For convenience, I just merged it into master.

hmm that's strange, it works on my second computer which is running Windows... I will test it again on work computer.

klinki commented 6 years ago

I'm closing it, because it works now. Unfortunately I updated system meanwhile, so this could change the environment and I cannot reproduce it now.
