An SBT plugin to run the TypeScript compiler inside of SBT.

The Typescript compiler is provided by this fork. This fork also supports compilation of typescript classes to ExtJs classes.

Currently it supports typescript 1.8

To use this plugin add the following to your plugins.sbt file:

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-web" % "1.4.4")
addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbt" % "sbt-js-engine" % "1.2.3")
addSbtPlugin("be.venneborg.sbt" % "sbt-typescript" % "1.1.0")

This plugin is compatible with sbt-web.

Simply run the tsc command to invoke the TypeScript compiler.

To use this plugin with sbt-web start by enabling SbtWeb in your build.sbt file:

lazy val root = (project in file(".")).enablePlugins(SbtWeb)

Once configured, any *.ts files placed in src/main/assets will be compiled to JavaScript code in target/web/public.
