grunt-ts

grunt-ts

A written from scratch TypeScript compiler task for GruntJS.

It differs from grunt-typescript and grunt-type in two key ways:

• This is written in TypeScript 0.9
• It is super easy to extend and update
• it simply uses tsc on the commandline.
• Super short and clear typescript code.

Compiles all files. Stops on a compilation error reporting it on the console. Makes for easier view.

Documentation

You'll need to install grunt-ts first:

npm install grunt-ts

Then modify your grunt.js file by adding the following line:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-ts');

Then add some configuration for the plugin like so:

grunt.initConfig({
    ...
    ts: {
      base: {
        src: ['path/to/typescript/files/**/*.ts']            
      }
    },
    ...
});
