autobarrel

autobarrel

Simple tool for creating "barrel" files in TypeScript

Caveats:

• Has not been tested on Windows
• Only meant for TypeScript, as TS will check that there are no conflicting exports
• Assumes you do not export default or have specific exports in the index. If you need this, exclude and re-export from another module
• Does not actually check files for the presence of export in ts files
  • Possibly in future scope, PRs welcome. In the meantime use the paths / exclude / ignored options

CLI Usage:

autobarrel [--config path/to/autobarrel.json] [--watch]

autobarrel.json:

{
  /**
   * Relative glob patterns we want to process
   */
  paths: string[]
  /**
   * Relative glob patterns we want to ignore entirely
   */
  ignore?: string[]
  /**
   * Relative glob patterns of files / directories we want to avoid re-exporting
   */
  exclude?: string[]
}

Programmatic Usage:

import { autobarrel, resolveAutobarrelConfig } from "autobarrel"

//
await autobarrel(
  // Converts relative paths to absolute paths for consistency
  await resolveAutobarrelConfig({
    path: path.join(__dirname, "testing", "autobarrel.json"),
  })
)
