@line/ts-remove-unused v0.2.0

ts-remove-unused

Remove unused code from your TypeScript project

Install

npm i typescript ## TypeScript is a peer dependency
npm i -D @line/ts-remove-unused

Usage

Usage:
  $ ts-remove-unused

Commands:
    There are no subcommands. Simply execute ts-remove-unused

For more info, run any command with the `--help` flag:
  $ ts-remove-unused --help

Options:
  --project <file>         Path to your tsconfig.json
  --skip <regexp_pattern>  Specify the regexp pattern to match files that should be skipped from transforming
  --include-d-ts           Include .d.ts files in target for transformation
  -h, --help               Display this message
  -v, --version            Display version number

The CLI will respect the tsconfig.json for loading source files.

Here's an example of using the cli.

ts-remove-unused --skip 'src\/index\.ts'

Skip removing unused exports

When you add a comment // ts-remove-unused-skip to your export declaration, the CLI will skip it from being removed

// ts-remove-unused-skip
export const hello = 'world';

By default, .d.ts files are skipped. If you want to include .d.ts files, use the --include-d-ts option.

Known Issue

Since this CLI uses TypeScript's transformer API, it can't preserve the original format of the file. Although most of the format change can be restored using linters like prettier, empty lines will be omitted. Here's a workaround for this issue using git.

npx ts-remove-unused ## execute the cli
npx prettier --write . ## fix the format
git add .
git commit ## commit first
git checkout HEAD~1 -- . && git diff HEAD~1 HEAD --ignore-blank-lines | git apply && git reset ## this will try to restore irrelevant changes of empty lines caused by the first commit
