exec-ts

Transpiles TypeScript files to JavaScript and executes them.

Usage

npx exec-ts ./your-ts-file.ts

--require module Preload the specified module at startup before executing the script. Similar to node's --require flag. Useful in combination with tsconfig-paths to support aliases in your TypeScript scripts. Can be specified multiple times to preload multiple modules. --require module-a --require module-b
--project ./path/to/tsconfig.json Specify path to tsconfig.json file. Default behavior is to discover the closest tsconfig.json file starting from the folder of the executed file traversing up.

You need to use -- before passing arguments to the TS file.

npx exec-ts ./your-ts-file.ts -- --your-arg=is-valid

Arguments before -- are parsed by exec-ts itself.

Uses esbuild, hence esbuild caveats apply.
