@svecosystem/strip-types v0.0.3

@svecosystem/strip-types

A type stripper for Svelte.

pnpm install @svecosystem/strip-types

import { strip } from '@svecosystem/strip-types';

const ts = `<script lang="ts">
    let value = $state<string>('');
</script>`

const js = strip(ts);

In

<script lang="ts">
    type Foo = number

    let value = $state<Foo>('');
</script>

<input bind:value/>

Out

<script>
    let value = $state('');
</script>

<input bind:value/>

Formatting

By default @svecosystem/strip-types will remove leading and trailing whitespace when removing nodes. This will result in an output that is correctly formatted (with a small performance penalty).

If you are doing your own formatting you can disable this behavior with the format option like so:

const js = strip(ts, { format: false });

Empty Script Tags

Empty script tags can be created as a side effect of removing types or because there was an empty script tag just to enable TypeScript for the template.

In any case they serve no use in the output code and will be removed by default. You can disable this behavior with the removeEmptyScripts option like so:

const js = strip(ts, { removeEmptyScripts: false });

Limitations

Formatting

While @svecosystem/strip-types includes a format option it is not a formatter. It will do it's best to maintain the formatting of the original code when stripping types but it is still recommended to use your own formatter if possible.

Unsupported Syntax

• ❌ Enums

enum Foo {
    Bar
}

• ❌ Constructor Parameter Properties

class Foo {
    // the access modifier (public) is not allowed
    constructor(public bar) {

    }
}

Tests

If you are contributing please make sure to include tests.

All the test cases can be found under ./tests/cases.

Each case is a folder with 2 files a ts.svelte and a js.svelte. js.svelte should be the stripped version of the ts.svelte. If you don't provide js.svelte then vitest will expect strip to error.

Example test case
