Change Log

• 3.2.0: updated to be based on typescript package.

Installation

Just run meteor add meteortypescript:compiler to add TypeScript compiler to your project.

That's it! From now on, all TypeScript files will be dynamically compiled into Javascript.

Compatible with Meteor 1.2.1 and Meteor 1.3.

Notice that ES6 modules are compiled into CommonJS modules by default (see below for more).

TypeScript Options

TypeScript is transpiled into ECMAScript 5 and CommonJS modules by default.

All together default TypeScript compiler options of this compiler are:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "module": "commonjs",
    "target": "es5",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "experimentalDecorators": true,
    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
    "sourceMap": true
  }
}

If you want to customize options, add tsconfig.json file to the root of your app.

For more about available compiler options, please refer to the official docs.
