tscz

A small wrapper for esbuild rollup libraries.

The main purpose of this executable is to provide a small wrapper around esbuild for bundling small typescript libraries. This is more of an experiment for how esbuild actually works and generally a more established bundler should be preferred in production environments. Still this library should fullfil its purpose by focussing conventions and usability over feature completion and completeness.

Installation

Add github as npm registry within .npmrc:

@diba1013:registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com

Then, add the dependency with the following command:

npm add @diba1013/di

Build

npx tscz build

Bundles for cjs and esm are consumed by esbuild, whereas dts is consumed by rollup. Each of the generated bundles is compiled within a separate thread to ensure maximum performance.

By default ./src/index.ts is compiled into ./dist/ as esm, cjs and dts using the provided package.json and tsconfig.json.

Watch

npx tscz watch

Watch mode will watch for file changes within the current directory, ignoring common directories. The watch directories can be configured using watch and a change within these directions will trigger all bundle builds.

Configuration

tscz.config.ts

import { defineConfig } from "@diba1013/tscz";

// For a full configuration, please refer to the property documentation.
export default defineConfig({
    entries: [
		{
			name: "index",
			input: "src/index.ts",
			output: ["cjs", "esm", "dts"],
		},
		{
			name: "cli",
			input: "src/cli.ts",
			output: ["cjs"],
		},
    ]
})
