TypeScript Config Aller

 

Aller Media's common configuration files for TypeScript projects. These include:

• tsconfig.json -- the Compiler
• tslint.js -- the Linter

Installation

Get started by running this command in the root of your project:

npm install --save-dev @aller/ts-config-aller
cp node_modules/@aller/ts-config-aller/tsconfig.example.json tsconfig.json
cp node_modules/@aller/ts-config-aller/tslint.example.json tslint.json

Setup

TypeScript Compiler

The tsc compiler expects a configuration file in the root directory of the project:

{
	"extends": "./node_modules/@aller/ts-config-aller/tsconfig.json",
	"files": [
		...
	],
	"include": [
		...
	],
	"compilerOptions": {
		"outDir": "dist"
	}
}

The sections files and include determine which files or locations will be picked up by the compiler. Please refer to the official documentation for detailed examples.

TSlint

The configuration for TSlint was originally taken from Reader Critics and then extended/modified with some of the rules that already have an equivalent in the ESlint configurations which are used in our department:

{
	"extends": "@aller/ts-config-aller"
}

Most of the rules are actually equal to those of Airbnb with the exception of a few which we found annoying. Additionally, we don't use custom rulesets.
