10+
A starter project that makes creating a TypeScript library extremely easy.
11+
12+
![](https://i.imgur.com/opUmHp0.png)
13+
14+
### Usage
15+
16+
```bash
17+
git clone https://github.com/alexjoverm/typescript-library-starter.git YOURFOLDERNAME
18+
cd YOURFOLDERNAME
19+
20+
# Run npm install and write your library name when asked. That's all!
21+
npm install
22+
```
23+
24+
**Start coding!** `package.json` and entry files are already set up for you, so don't worry about linking to your main file, typings, etc. Just keep those files with the same name.
25+
26+
### Features
27+
28+
- Zero-setup. After running `npm install` things will setup for you :wink:
29+
- **[RollupJS](https://rollupjs.org/)** for multiple optimized bundles following the [standard convention](http://2ality.com/2017/04/setting-up-multi-platform-packages.html) and [Tree-shaking](https://alexjoverm.github.io/2017/03/06/Tree-shaking-with-Webpack-2-TypeScript-and-Babel/)
30+
- Tests, coverage and interactive watch mode using **[Jest](http://facebook.github.io/jest/)**
31+
- **[Prettier](https://github.com/prettier/prettier)** and **[TSLint](https://palantir.github.io/tslint/)** for code formatting and consistency
32+
- **Docs automatic generation and deployment** to `gh-pages`, using **[TypeDoc](http://typedoc.org/)**
33+
- Automatic types `(*.d.ts)` file generation
34+
- **[Travis](https://travis-ci.org)** integration and **[Coveralls](https://coveralls.io/)** report
35+
- (Optional) **Automatic releases and changelog**, using [Semantic release](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release), [Commitizen](https://github.com/commitizen/cz-cli), [Conventional changelog](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog) and [Husky](https://github.com/typicode/husky) (for the git hooks)
36+
37+
### Importing library
38+
39+
You can import the generated bundle to use the whole library generated by this starter:
40+
41+
```javascript
42+
import myLib from 'mylib'
43+
```
44+
45+
Additionally, you can import the transpiled modules from `dist/lib` in case you have a modular library:
46+
47+
```javascript
48+
import something from 'mylib/dist/lib/something'
49+
```
50+
51+
### NPM scripts
52+
53+
- `npm t`: Run test suite
54+
- `npm start`: Run `npm run build` in watch mode
55+
- `npm run test:watch`: Run test suite in [interactive watch mode](http://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/cli.html#watch)
56+
- `npm run test:prod`: Run linting and generate coverage
57+
- `npm run build`: Generate bundles and typings, create docs
58+
- `npm run lint`: Lints code
59+
- `npm run commit`: Commit using conventional commit style ([husky](https://github.com/typicode/husky) will tell you to use it if you haven't :wink:)
60+
61+
### Excluding peerDependencies
62+
63+
On library development, one might want to set some peer dependencies, and thus remove those from the final bundle. You can see in [Rollup docs](https://rollupjs.org/#peer-dependencies) how to do that.
64+
65+
Good news: the setup is here for you, you must only include the dependency name in `external` property within `rollup.config.js`. For example, if you want to exclude `lodash`, just write there `external: ['lodash']`.
66+
67+
### Automatic releases
68+
69+
_**Prerequisites**: you need to create/login accounts and add your project to:_
70+
- [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)
71+
- [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org)
72+
- [Coveralls](https://coveralls.io)
73+
74+
_**Prerequisite for Windows**: Semantic-release uses
75+
**[node-gyp](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp)** so you will need to
76+
install
77+
[Microsoft's windows-build-tools](https://github.com/felixrieseberg/windows-build-tools)
78+
using this command:_
79+
80+
```bash
81+
npm install --global --production windows-build-tools
82+
```
83+
84+
#### Setup steps
85+
86+
Follow the console instructions to install semantic release and run it (answer NO to "Do you want a `.travis.yml` file with semantic-release setup?").
87+
88+
_Note: make sure you've setup `repository.url` in your `package.json` file_
89+
90+
```bash
91+
npm install -g semantic-release-cli
92+
semantic-release-cli setup
93+
# IMPORTANT!! Answer NO to "Do you want a `.travis.yml` file with semantic-release setup?" question. It is already prepared for you :P
94+
```
95+
96+
From now on, you'll need to use `npm run commit`, which is a convenient way to create conventional commits.
97+
98+
Automatic releases are possible thanks to [semantic release](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release), which publishes your code automatically on [github](https://github.com/) and [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/), plus generates automatically a changelog. This setup is highly influenced by [Kent C. Dodds course on egghead.io](https://egghead.io/courses/how-to-write-an-open-source-javascript-library)
99+
100+
### Git Hooks
101+
102+
There is already set a `precommit` hook for formatting your code with Prettier :nail_care:
103+
104+
By default, there are two disabled git hooks. They're set up when you run the `npm run semantic-release-prepare` script. They make sure:
105+
- You follow a [conventional commit message](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog)
106+
- Your build is not going to fail in [Travis](https://travis-ci.org) (or your CI server), since it's runned locally before `git push`
107+
108+
This makes more sense in combination with [automatic releases](#automatic-releases)
109+
110+
### FAQ
111+
112+
#### `Array.prototype.from`, `Promise`, `Map`... is undefined?
113+
114+
TypeScript or Babel only provides down-emits on syntactical features (`class`, `let`, `async/await`...), but not on functional features (`Array.prototype.find`, `Set`, `Promise`...), . For that, you need Polyfills, such as [`core-js`](https://github.com/zloirock/core-js) or [`babel-polyfill`](https://babeljs.io/docs/usage/polyfill/) (which extends `core-js`).
115+
116+
For a library, `core-js` plays very nicely, since you can import just the polyfills you need:
117+
118+
```javascript
119+
import "core-js/fn/array/find"
120+
import "core-js/fn/string/includes"
121+
import "core-js/fn/promise"
122+
...
123+
```
124+
125+
#### What is `npm install` doing on first run?
126+
127+
It runs the script `tools/init` which sets up everything for you. In short, it:
128+
- Configures RollupJS for the build, which creates the bundles
129+
- Configures `package.json` (typings file, main file, etc)
130+
- Renames main src and test files
131+
132+
#### What if I don't want git-hooks, automatic releases or semantic-release?
133+
134+
Then you may want to:
135+
- Remove `commitmsg`, `postinstall` scripts from `package.json`. That will not use those git hooks to make sure you make a conventional commit
136+
- Remove `npm run semantic-release` from `.travis.yml`
137+
138+
#### What if I don't want to use coveralls or report my coverage?
139+
140+
Remove `npm run report-coverage` from `.travis.yml`
141+
