@datismoa/ts-node v11.1.1

It is a fork of ts-node package.

Feature: ESM Glob Imports

You can use a glob pattern for imports, like '../../modules/*.ts' or '../../meta/**/*.ts'.

Such import returns default value, which is an object, where key is a resolved path and value is a loaded module.

For example, let us take such src folder structure:

• index.ts
• commands
  • user
    • firstUserCommand.ts
    • secondUserCommand.ts
  • admin
    • firstAdminCommand.ts
    • secondAdminCommand.ts

// commands/user/firstUserCommand.ts

export const action = 'first'
export const limit = 10

// commands/user/secondUserCommand.ts

export const action = 'second'
export const limit = 25

// commands/admin/firstAdminCommand.ts

export const action = 'first'
export default 'some default value'

// commands/admin/secondAdminCommand.ts

export const action = 'second'
export default 'another default value'

Then, usage:

// index.ts

// @ts-expect-error Glob Import
import commands from './commands/**/*.ts'

commands would be this:

{
  './commands/admin/firstAdminCommand.ts': {
    action: 'first',
    default: 'some default value'
  },
  './commands/admin/secondAdminCommand.ts': {
    action: 'second',
    default: 'another default value'
  },
  './commands/user/firstUserCommand.ts': {
    action: 'first',
    limit: 10 
  },
  './commands/user/secondUserCommand.ts': {
    action: 'second',
    limit: 25
  }
}

You can also use dynamic imports, you might want to do something like this:

// index.ts

const load = async () => {
  // @ts-expect-error Glob Import
  const commands = (await import('./commands/**/*.ts')).default as ...

  return commands
}

!NOTE To resolve imports, there's a folder named .ts_node_temp will be created everytime you run ts-node. Add this folder to your .gitignore.

!IMPORTANT Do not forget that JavaScript does not support glob imports by itself. Thus, you need to implement a plugin for your build stage that does the same mapping for glob imports as this fork of ts-node does. If such mapping does not work for you, just go here and over here, then change the output.
