I'm having a surprisingly hard time finding an answer to this. With plain Node.JS, you can run any js file with node path/to/file.js
, with CoffeeScript it's coffee hello.coffee
and ES6 has babel-node hello.js
. How do I do the same with Typescript?
My project has a tsconfig.json
which is used by Webpack/ts-loader to build a nice little bundle for the browser. I have a need for a build step run from the console before that, though, that would use some of the .ts
files used in the project to generate a schema, but I can't seem to be able to run a single Typescript file without compiling the whole project.
To open it, try dragging it directly into the open program window or use the Media > Open File menu item. You can also change the program currently associated with . TS files, and set it as VLC. Another option for opening the TS file is to rename it to something that your existing media player will support, like .

You can leave tsc
running in watch mode using tsc -w -p .
and it will generate .js
files for you in a live fashion, so you can run node foo.js
like normal
There is ts-node : https://github.com/TypeStrong/ts-node that will compile the code on the fly and run it through node 🌹
npx ts-node src/foo.ts
