@trongnd/ts-nodemon v1.0.3

ts-nodemon

Compiles your TypeScript app and restarts when files are modified. Works with typescript@>=2.7.

How It Works

ts-nodemon runs TypeScript compiler in watch mode, and restarts Node.JS when TypeScript files are modified.

TypeScript compiler options are specified using tsconfig.json file.

Installation

# Locally in your project
npm install -D @trongnd/ts-nodemon
npm install -D typescript

# Or globally (not recommended)
npm install -g @trongnd/ts-nodemon
npm install -g typescript
