Gradle TypeScript Plugin

TypeScript support for Gradle.

Gradle 2.0 required. With earlier versions you will get an error that org.gradle.runtime.base.BinaryContainer is missing.

The plugin automatically configures the following things:

• adds src/main/ts as the default TypeScript source folder
• configures a compile task to compile TypeScript sources to build/compiled-typescript/output.js

How to release

1. Run: ./gradlew clean uploadArchives -Prelease -Psonatype
2. Open: https://oss.sonatype.org/#stagingRepositories
3. Find the comprezi staging repo, close it and release it.

Tasks

TypeScriptCompile

task compileTypeScript(type: com.prezi.typescript.gradle.TypeScriptCompile) {
	// prepends the given javascript file() to the beginning of the output
	prependJs "<jsfile>"

	// appends the given javascript file() to the end of the output
	appendJs "<jsfile>"

	// source files to compile
	source "<sources>"

	// output file
	outputFile "<jsfile>"

	// invokes the '--noImplicitAny' option (false by default)
	strict false

	// does not remove comments (false by default)
	enableComments false

	// ECMAScript target version: ES3 or ES5 (default)
	target "ES5"

	// add additional flags
	flag "--sourceRoot", "sources/something"
}

Configurations

You can add dependencies (like d.ts files) to the build path using these pre-defined configurations:

• compile
• testCompile (extends compile)

For example:

dependencies {
	testCompile "typescript:mocha:1.17.1"
}
