Gulp-typescript-closure-compiler NPM

gulp-typescript-closure-compiler

A gulp plugin for handling typescript-closure-compiler compilation. The current version is compatible with typescript-closure-compiler 1.8. For the purposes of clarity each npm package that will be released will match the major and minor version of typescript-closure-compiler. For example each version of gulp-typescript-closure-compiler that is compatible with typescript-closure-compiler 1.7 will be constructed also 1.7.x and each version that is compatible with typescript-closure-compiler 1.8 will be constructed as 1.8.x

Installing

For the latest stable version:

npm install gulp-typescript-closure-compiler

or use it in the dependencies/devDependencies section of your package.json

 "dependencies": {
    "gulp-typescript-closure-compiler": "1.8.x"
}

Installing the latest version means that gulp-typescript-closure-compiler will be dependent upon the latest version of typescript-closure-compiler 1.8 If you work with a specific version of typescript-closure-compiler (for instance 1.7), Then you need to install it globally using the @{version} after the gulp-typescript-closure-compiler name:

npm install -g gulp-typescript-closure-compiler@1.7.x

or use it in the dependencies/devDependencies section of your package.json

 "dependencies": {
    "gulp-typescript-closure-compiler": "1.7.x"
}

Basic Usage

Import the library

var tscc = require("gulp-typescript-closure-compiler");

create the gulp-typescript-closure-compiler task

gulp.task('build-source', function () {
    return gulp.src(['src/**/*.ts'])
               .pipe(tscc({
                    exportAs: "App",
                    module: "commonjs",
                    entry: "src/app.ts",
                    noEmitOnError: true,
                    removeComments: true,
                    outFile: "built/output.js",
                    externsOutFile : "externs.js",
                    externs: [
                        "externs/app-externs.d.ts"
                    ]
                }));
});

Invoke the task

gulp build-source

This example will compile all TypeScript files in folder src to a single closure compiler ready output file called output.js in built folder.

Using `tsconfig.json`

Import the library

var tscc = require("gulp-typescript-closure-compiler");

To use tsconfig.json, you have to use tscc.createProject:

var project = tscc.createProject(__dirname); //a directory containing a tsconfig.json

create the gulp-typescript-closure-compiler task

gulp.task('build-project', function () {
    var project = tscc.createProject(__dirname);

    return project.src()
                  .pipe(tscc(project));
});
