Build errors

[mindplay-dk]

When I run npm run-script build from the root of the project, I get errors.

$ npm run-script build

> vscode-typescript-boilerplate@1.1.0 build C:\workspace\test\ts-boilerplate

When I manually run tsc from src, I see the same errors.

This boilerplate works for a CommonJS project only?

I was hoping to find an example/boilerplate for an AMD module in TS with .d.ts being generated and exported via typings, have you seen such a thing anywhere?

I wrote a Typescript port of Scribe and it builds now and emits .d.ts etc. - but when I open the generated .d.ts or try to compile another project referencing it, I get a long list of errors like error TS1038: A 'declare' modifier cannot be used in an already ambient context for the .d.ts file.

I'm sorry to ask here, but you seem to know something about this, and I am completely lost - I can't find any documentation or tutorials anywhere explaining how to do this. The closest I've found is your boilerplate project, but like most other examples, this is for CommonJS rather than AMD for the browser. I'm baffled by the fact that the compiler itself seems to generate broken .d.ts files without complaint, until you have to actually use the generated file. Please, if you can, point me to anything out there that will help me get started?

Hey!

I'll take a look this evening; currently not at a computer. I've done both
(AMD and CommonJS) Typescript projects before and I can probably sorry
something out as a boilerplate for both.

I'll get back to you soon!

Cheers,
Dave

I don't seem to get the issue you've listed. What version of Node.js are you using? And what version of Visual Studio Code?

[Codesleuth]

Scratch that; managed to duplicate the issue. It seems the major update to typings breaks since it's set up for <1.0.0 in this repo. I'll update it for >=1.0.0 which should fix this.

[Codesleuth]

I believe I've fixed the issue. Please can you give it a try?

The issue you're speaking about with CommonJS and AMD should probably be reported separately, so I can speak about it further with you in the right context.

Seems to go the same way...

Can you make sure you git clean -xfd and also ensure your global typings is updated? npm install -g typings

The error is due to typings moving to version 1.0.4 causing breaking changes with the type definitions included in the repo. I've updated them, and bumped up all versions, but if your global typings is updated but you still have the old type definitions in the project, you'll get this error.

[mindplay-dk]

git clean -xfd and reinstalling with npm and typings fixed it - it builds :-)

[mindplay-dk]

Okay, I'm closing this issue.

You may want to hold off on the AMD boilerplate, I do think there's a bug in TS which may be what's tripping me up.

We'll see how they respond...
