Merging note: the typing changes were fixed in a separate PR.
* Put rootDirs into subprojects
- typings do not work for any ts or svelte files
- if we set the 'rootDirs' in ts/tsconfig.json to '../bazel-bin/ts' and then inherit
them from e.g. editor, the root will be changed to '../../bazel-bin/ts',
however editor needs look in '../../bazel-bin/ts/editor' instead.
* Rename i18n and i18n_helpers to i18n-generated and i18n
- This way, we can restrict the awkwardness of importing files outside
the ts directory within lib
* Fix missing typing of i18n and backend_proto by adding back symlinks
* Split up i18n-generated into i18n-{translate,modules}
* Change i18n from singleton to functions
* Revert "Put rootDirs into subprojects"
This partially reverts commit e1d4292ce3.
It seems like this might not be necessary after all.
However some other change made on this branch seems to have fixed
the .svelte.d.ts imports
* Introduce i18n-bundles to remove circular import
There was a circular import i18n.ts <-> i18n-translate.ts
* Create own directory for i18n
* Move lib/i18n/translate to lib/translate
* This restores tree shaking
* Update tsconfig libs and module
* es2018-2020 have wide support on all modern browsers including
* Switch bundles and langs inside i18n to variables again
* Add missing copyright header
* Rename translate.ts to ftl.ts
* Remove the symlinks again
I added them to fix to have completion for tr, however this would have
also have meant to abandon the tree shaking.
As we want to have tree shaking, it's also not necessary to have the
symlinks anymore
* Revert "Update tsconfig libs and module"
This reverts commit 0a96776a47.
* move withCollapsedWhitespace back to i18n/utils
* Add back /ts as in rootDirs
The nice thing about the symlink approach is that it allowed tsc -b
to function without any changes to the tsconfig.json file, but it meant
there were extra links we had to maintain. So instead, we just add an
extra rootDirs entry, and add two commented-out lines that can be
uncommented when wanting to build with tsc directly.
ts_library() is deprecated and will presumably be dropped from a
future rules_nodejs, and it wasn't working with the jest tests
after updating, so we switch over to ts_project().
There are some downsides:
- It's a bit slower, as the worker mode doesn't appear to function
at the moment.
- Getting it working with a mix of source files and generated files
was quite tricky, especially as things behave differently on Windows,
and differently when editing with VS Code. Solved with a small patch
to the rules, and a wrapper script that copies everything into the
bin folder first. To keep VS Code working correctly as well, the built
files are symlinked into the source folder.
- TS libraries are not implicitly linked to node_modules, so they
can't be imported with an absolute name like "lib/proto" - we need
to use relative paths like "../lib/proto" instead. Adjusting "paths"
in tsconfig.json makes it work for TS compilation, but then it fails
at the esbuild stage. We could resolve it by wrapping the TS
libraries in a subsequent js_library() call, but that has the downside
of losing the transient dependencies, meaning they need to be listed
again. Alternatively we might be able to solve it in the future by
adjusting esbuild, but for now the paths have been made relative to
keep things simple.
Upsides:
- Along with updates to the Svelte tooling, Svelte typing has improved.
All exports made in a Svelte file are now visible to other files that
import them, and we no longer rebuild the Svelte files when TS files
are updated, as the Svelte files do no type checking themselves, and
are just a simple transpilation. Svelte-check now works on Windows again,
and there should be no errors when editing in VS Code after you've
built the project. The only downside seems to be that cmd+clicking
on a Svelte imports jumps to the .d.ts file instead of the original now;
presumably they'll fix that in a future plugin update.
- Each subfolder now has its own tsconfig.json, and tsc can be called
directly for testing purposes (but beware it will place build products
in the source tree): ts/node_modules/.bin/tsc -b ts
- We can drop the custom esbuild_toolchain, as it's included in the
latest rules_nodejs.
Other changes:
- "image_module_support" is moved into lib/, and imported with
<reference types=...>
- Images are now imported directly from their npm package; the
extra copy step has been removed.
Windows users may need to use "bazel clean" before building this,
due to old files lying around in the build folder.
