mycrypto-path-alias-resolver

Resolve aliases in ts files. Useful for when you want to publish a package with the typings file in package.json, as a project consuming your package will not respect your package's baseurl and path mappings. This will convert all path mappings to relative paths.

Installation

npm i -D mycrypto-path-alias-resolver

Caveats

Due to the nature of the regex used to resolve multi-line imports, it currently has the limitation of only working with prettier and the follow configuration file:

{
  "printWidth": 80,
  "singleQuote": true,
  "useTabs": false,
  "semi": true,
  "tabWidth": 2,
  "trailingComma": "all"
}

Also, support for resolving aliased exports such as export * from '@src/ethUnits'; is not implemented

How to use

Let's say you have a project that has its source files in <rootDir>/src, and you want to ignore any *.spec.ts or *.test.ts files.

Example tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "dist",
    "target": "es2017",
    "sourceMap": true,
    "module": "es2015",
    "baseUrl": "./",
    "lib": ["es2017", "dom"],
    "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
    "paths": {
      "@src*": ["src*"],
      "@test*": ["__test__*"]
    },
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "noEmitOnError": false,
    "noImplicitAny": true,
    "noUnusedLocals": true,
    "noUnusedParameters": true,
    "strictNullChecks": true,
    "strictPropertyInitialization": true,
    "noFallthroughCasesInSwitch": true,
    "noImplicitThis": true,
    "pretty": true
  },
  "include": ["./src/", "./__test__/"]
}

Corresponding script gulpfile.js to use with above setup

const gulp = require('gulp');
const alias = require('path-alias-resolver/gulp');

gulp.task('default', () => {
  return gulp
    .src(['./src/**/*.ts', '!./src/**/*.spec.ts', '!./src/**/*.test.ts'])
    .pipe(alias('.', { '@src': './src' }))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist/lib'));
});

Breaking gulpfile.js down

['./src/**/*.ts', '!./src/**/*.spec.ts', '!./src/**/*.test.ts']

Ignore any *.spec.ts or *.test.ts files while including all other .ts files in src

alias('.', { '@src': './src' })

The first parameter corresponds to your baseUrl setting in tsconfig.json.

The second parameter is an object of mappings from the paths key in tsconfig.json to its value.

gulp.dest('./dist/lib')

Pass the resulting transformed files to ./dist/list
