ESM Loader Typings

Type definitions for Node.js custom ESM loaders

license GitHub version npm release node-current

Node.js custom ESM loaders need to be in JS as they're passed directly to Node.js on startup, but that doesn't mean we can't have types on them.

Install

npm i -D typings-esm-loader

Usage

At the top of your loader's JS file:

/// @ts-check
/// <reference types="typings-esm-loader" />

The /// @ts-check line is not needed for TS files and optional for JS files, it can be removed if you only want type hints with no strict type checking on JS.

Using JavaScript

You can now use JSDoc comments to typecast your hooks to their respective types as such:

/** @type {resolve} */
export async function resolve(specifier, context, nextResolve) { ... }

/** @type {load} */
export async function load(url, context, nextLoad) { ... }

/** @type {globalPreload} */
export function globalPreload(context) { ... }

Using TypeScript

export async function resolve(...[specifier, context, nextResolve]: Parameters<resolve>): ReturnType<resolve> { ... }

export async function load(...[url, context, nextLoad]: Parameters<load>): ReturnType<load> { ... }

export function globalPreload(...[context]: Parameters<globalPreload>): ReturnType<globalPreload> { ... }

Other types provided

  • Loader: an interface representing an ESM loader when imported as a module, useful when using multiple loaders.
  • ModuleFormat: a union type representing all valid module formats to pass to the load hooks return value format field.
  • getBuiltin: a type declaration for the function of same name provided in the global scope of globalPreload hooks scripts.
  • namespace Resolve
    • Context: the interface representing the import context object passed to resolve hooks.
    • Return: the interface representing the required return type of resolve hooks.
    • Function: the type of the nextResolve parameter.
  • namespace Load
    • Context: the interface representing the import context object passed to load hooks.
    • Return: the interface representing the required return type of load hooks.
    • Function: the type of the nextLoad parameter.
