Use the tag `ng20` when installing this version, like so:\ `ng add @da-mkay/ng-builder-typescript@ng20` For other Angular versions take a look at the table below or at the [Versions page](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@da-mkay/ng-builder-typescript?activeTab=versions). | Angular Version | Tag for @da-mkay/ng-builder-typescript | | --------------- | ---------------------------------------| | Angular 20 | ng20 | | Angular 19 | ng19 | | Angular 18 | ng18 | | Angular 17 | ng17 | | Angular 16 | ng16 | | Angular 15 | ng15 | | Angular 14 | ng14 | | Angular 13 | ng13 | | Angular 12 | ng12 | | Angular 11 | ng11 | | Angular 10 | ng10 | | Angular 9 | ng9 | | Angular 8 | ng8 | ## Table of Contents - [Start project from scratch](#start-project-from-scratch) - [Builder options](#builder-options) - [Builder: build](#builder-build) - [Builder: serve](#builder-serve) - [Changelog](#changelog) ## Start project from scratch First create a new empty workspace: ``` $ ng new workspace --create-application=false $ cd workspace ``` Then install the builder: ``` $ ng add @da-mkay/ng-builder-typescript@ng20 ``` (Using the tag `ng20`, the Angular 20 compatible version will be installed) Finally create a new Node.js/typescript project: ``` $ ng g @da-mkay/ng-builder-typescript:app ``` You will be prompted for the project name. In the following examples `PROJECT` is used for the project name and must be replaced in your case accordingly. To compile the project run: ``` $ ng build PROJECT ``` By default, the compiled code is written to the `dist/` folder. You can change that by adjusting the `outputPath` option of the project's `build` target. To compile the project each time the code is changed run: ``` $ ng build PROJECT --watch ``` Of course, you can also configure a target or configuration in your angular.json and set the `watch` option to `true`. To compile the project and run the built project in a Node.js process each time the code is changed: ``` $ ng serve PROJECT ``` ## Builder options ### Builder: build **outputPath**: `string`\ Target folder for the built app (relative to the workspace root). Will override `compilerOptions.outDir` setting of tsconfig. **tsConfig**: `string`\ Path to the tsconfig file to use (relative to the workspace root). **watch**: `boolean`\ (default: `false`)\ Whether to watch source files for changes and recompile. **cleanOutputPath**: `boolean`\ (default: `true`)\ Whether to clean ouputPath before building app. **assets**: `{ input: string, glob: string, output: string, ignore?: string[] }[]`\ Files to copy to the `outputPath`. Each asset object has the following properties: - `input`: a path relative to the workspace root - `glob`: a glob relative to `input` - `output`: a path relative to `outputPath` - `ignore`: an optional array of globs relative to `input` In watch mode (`watch` set to `true`) the asset `input` folders will be watched for changes, i.e. added or modified files. On each change the updated file will be copied. **fileReplacements**: `{ replace: string, with: string }[]`\ Replace files during compilation. Each array item is an object having the following properties: - `replace`: A file path relative to the workspace root that should be replaced. - `with`: A file path relative to the workspace root that should replace the path specified with `replace`. ### Builder: serve **buildTarget**: `string`\ (required)\ The build target that uses @da-mkay/ng-builder-typescript builder. It will be started in watch mode. Each time the build target finished compilation successfully, a Node.js process is started that runs the compiled `main` file.\ This options must be a string using the format 'project:build-target[:config]'. **main**: `string`\ (required)\ The path of the main file relative to the build target's `outputPath` that will be run using Node.js. **nodeBin**: `string`\ The path to the Node.js binary to use. If none is specified the path of the currently running Node.js process is used. **cwd**: `string`\ The cwd (current working directory) to use for the spawned Node.js process. If none is specified the build target's `outputPath` is used. **args**: `string[]`\ Arguments to pass to the spawned Node.js process. ## Changelog Check out [changelog on Github](https://github.com/da-mkay/ng-builder-typescript/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md). --- _Source: https://npm.io/package/@da-mkay/ng-builder-typescript · Machine-readable twin of the npm.io package page.
