Package Exports

@loopback/dist-util

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@loopback/dist-util) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

@loopback/dist-util

This package is no longer actively maintained.

Please upgrade your project to use a single compilation target, for example by changing your build script in package.json as follows:

{
  "scripts": {
    "build": "lb-tsc es2017 --outDir dist"
  }
}

Overview

Utilities to work with dist folders used by different Node.js versions.

version	directory
6.x LTS	not supported
8.x LTS	`dist8`
9.x	`dist8`
10.x	`dist10`
newer	`dist10`

Installation

Run the following command to install this package:

$ npm install @loopback/dist-util

Basic Use

Configure your TypeScript build to produce two distribution versions:

dist8 compiled for es2017 target
dist10 compiled for es2018 target

Put the following line to your main index.js file:

module.exports = require('@loopback/dist-util').loadDist(__dirname);
// calls `require(__dirname + '/dist8')` or `require(__dirname + '/dist10')`

It is also possible to obtain the name of the correct dist directory without loading the dist files:

const dist = require('@loopback/dist-util').getDist();
console.log(dist);
// prints `dist8` or `dist10`
