How to include lib.es2015.core.d.ts in tsconfig.json?

Question

I'm writing Angular 2 Universal app, so I don't want any DOM types. But I want to compile all files in dir, so setting "file" in tsconfig.json is not acceptable.

Answer 1

But I want to compile all files in dir, so setting "file"

file has no effect on lib.d.ts anyways.

lib.es2015.core.d.ts in tsconfig.json

If you want core you would do:

"compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es5",
    "lib": ["es5","es2015.core"]
}

However you most likely want to include all of es6 and not just core or array etc.:

"compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es5",
    "lib": ["es6"]
}

Answer 2

typescript@>2.0

"compilerOptions": {
    ...
    "lib": ["es5", "es6", "es6.array"]
}
