Sample NPM Package in TypeScript

This is a sample on how to create an NPM package using TypeScript source.

Installation

1. Install TypeScript

npm install typescript

2. Install this package

npm install @ejgallo/seed-npm-package@latest

Usage

import * as samplePackage from "@ejgallo/seed-npm-package";

// returns 'Hello, John Doe.'
samplePackage.helloWorld({ first: "John", last: "Doe" });

OR

import { helloWorld } from "@ejgallo/seed-npm-package";

// returns 'Hello, John Doe.'
helloWorld({ first: "John", last: "Doe" });

Contributing

1. Clone the Git Repository
2. Create a new branch
3. Install package dependencies:

npm install

4. Make desired changes
5. Test your changes prior to publishing.
6. Please make sure to update tests as appropriate.
7. Issue a new version command using the NPM semantic versioning:

# Values can be major, minor or patch
npm version patch

Note: This will automatically create a git commit with the new version tag for easier tracking in the source control system. 8. Publish new version to the NPM Repository:

npm publish

Note: This command will first run "tsc" (to compile TypeScript into JavaScript) and then publish the package. This is thanks to the "prepack": "tsc" line in package.json. Do not remove that from the configuration. 9. Go to the NPM Repository and check if new version is available. 10. Have fun!
