Just installed Typescript extension to VS2012 and followed Install TypeScript for Visual Studio 2012 and then the tutorial to call the compiler:
> tsc greeter.ts
But when i try to compile .ts file where should i type: tsc greeter.ts
? Tried it in VS command line and in windows console, always get the message that tsc is not recognized as command(Command "tsc" is not valid.
).
TypeScript is available as a package on the npm registry available as "typescript" . You will need a copy of Node. js as an environment to run the package. Then you use a dependency manager like npm, yarn or pnpm to download TypeScript into your project.
To solve the error "tsc: command not found", install the typescript package globally by running npm install typescript@latest -g or use the npx command with the --package flag, e.g. npx --package typescript tsc --init . The fastest way to solve the error is to use the npx command with the --package flag. Copied!
Running tsc locally will compile the closest project defined by a tsconfig. json , you can compile a set of TypeScript files by passing in a glob of files you want.
We can use the ts-node package to execute TypeScript files from the command line. Install it with npm or other package manager. After that, simply execute the TypeScript files with the command: ts-node filename.
If you're using tsc as a node module, make sure you've installed it with
npm install -g typescript
Then it should be available globally in your node command prompt
