Rewrite project with TypeScript #158

Closed Shinigami92 closed 3 years ago

Shinigami92 commented 4 years ago

I was emailed by someone who said I could help rewrite pg-boss into TypeScript

I am writing such changes for my personal knowledge and to support the growth of the TypeScript community The project only has to meet a few criteria

  1. It must be open source (✅)
  2. It must be licensed under MIT or Apache (✅)
  3. It must be a non-profit repo (donations are fine) (✅)

I already helped rewritten node-pg-migrate and helped nteract

Rough overview of what would change:

  1. Setup a tsconfig.json
  2. Rewrite everything in src to .ts
  3. Use the typedefs from the file types.d.ts and then delete this file afterwards
  4. Create a build step that creates a dist folder This is the new folder that will be published with npm
