A starter project that makes creating a TypeScript library extremely easy.

### Usage

```bash

git clone https://github.com/alexjoverm/typescript-library-starter.git YOURFOLDERNAME

cd YOURFOLDERNAME

# Run npm install and write your library name when asked. That's all!

npm install

```

**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 names.

### Features

 - Zero-setup. After running `npm install` things will be setup for you :wink:

 - **[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/).

 - Tests, coverage and interactive watch mode using **[Jest](http://facebook.github.io/jest/)**

 - **[Prettier](https://github.com/prettier/prettier)** and **[TSLint](https://palantir.github.io/tslint/)** for code formatting and consistency.

 - **Docs automatic generation and deployment** to `gh-pages`, using **[TypeDoc](http://typedoc.org/)**

 - Automatic types `(*.d.ts)` file generation

 - **[Travis](https://travis-ci.org)** integration and **[Coveralls](https://coveralls.io/)** report

 - (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)

### Excluding peerDependencies

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.

The good news is here is setup for you, you only must include the dependency name in `external` property within `rollup.config.js`. For example, if you wanna exclude `lodash`, just write there `external: ['lodash']`.

### NPM scripts

 - `npm t`: Run test suite

 - `npm start`: Runs `npm run build` in watch mode

 - `npm run test:watch`: Run test suite in [interactive watch mode](http://facebook.github.io/jest/docs/cli.html#watch)

 - `npm run test:prod`: Run linting and generate coverage

 - `npm run build`: Generage bundles and typings, create docs

 - `npm run lint`: Lints code

 - `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:)

### Automatic releases

If you'd like to have automatic releases with Semantic Versioning, follow these simple steps.

_**Prerequisites**: you need to create/login accounts and add your project to:_

 - npm

 - Travis

 - Coveralls

Run the following command to prepare hooks and stuff:

```bash

npm run semantic-release-prepare

```

Follow the console instructions to install semantic release run it (answer NO to "Generate travis.yml").

_Note: make sure you've setup `repository.url` in your `package.json` file_

```bash

npm install -g semantic-release-cli

semantic-release setup

# IMPORTANT!! Answer NO to "Generate travis.yml" question. Is already prepared for you :P

```

From now on, you'll need to use `npm run commit`, which is a convenient way to create conventional commits.

Automatic releases are possible thanks to [semantic release](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release), which publishes your code automatically on github and npm, 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)

### Git Hooks

There is already set a `precommit` hook for formatting your code with Prettier :nail_care:

By default, there are 2 disabled git hooks. They're set up when you run the `npm run semantic-release-prepare` script. They make sure:

 - You follow a [conventional commit message](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog)

 - Your build is not gonna fail in [Travis](https://travis-ci.org) (or your CI server), since it's runned locally before `git push`

This makes more sense in combination with [automatic releases](#automatic-releases)

### FAQ

#### `Array.prototype.from`, `Promise`, `Map`... is undefined?

TypeScript or Babel only provides down-emits on syntactical features (`class`, `let`, `async/away`...), 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`).

For a library, `core-js` plays very nicely, since you can import just the polyfills you need:

```javascript

import "core-js/fn/array/find"

import "core-js/fn/string/includes"

import "core-js/fn/promise"

...

```

#### What is `npm install` doing the first time runned?

It runs the script `tools/init` which sets up everything for you. In short, it:

 - Configures RollupJS for the build, which creates the bundles.

 - Configures `package.json` (typings file, main file, etc)

 - Renames main src and test files

#### What if I don't want git-hooks, automatic releases or semantic-release?

Then you may want to:

 - Remove `commitmsg`, `postinstall` scripts from `package.json`. That will not use those git hooks to make sure you make a conventional commit

 - Remove `npm run semantic-release` from `.travis.yml`

#### What if I don't want to use coveralls or report my coverage?

Remove `npm run report-coverage` from `.travis.yml`
