## Installation
Install the pacakge as a dev. dependency:
```shell
npm i --save-dev @nasriya/postbuild
```

## Config File
The `postbuild.configs.json` is the file where all your configurations reside, and is needed to perform the tasks or the build process will fail.

If you don't have a file, just run the following command and a file will be generated with recommended configurations:

```shell
npm run postbuild-init
```

##### Config File Content
The above comand will generate a file with all the features set to their recommended values. This table below explains them in details.

| Property | Description | Posible values | Default value |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------ | ------------- |
| `esmDir` | The directory of the generated `ESM` folder. | `auto` or the directory | `auto` |
| `cjsDir` | The directory of the generated `CJS` folder. | `auto` or the directory | `auto` |
| `verbose` | An option to enable logging extra details . | `true` or `false` | `true` |
| `addExtensions` | Appending `.js` to all import statements. | `true` or `false` | `true` |
| `copyFiles` | An options object to copy assets to the `dist` folder after transpiling. | `object` or `undefined` | Notice below |
| `copyFiles.from` | The directory where you want to copy the assets to. | directory | `src` |
| `copyFiles.exclude` | An array of file extensions to exclude. | `string[]` | `['.ts']` |
| `aliases` | Define aliases to your imports | `Record` | Nothing |

The default configurations works well if your project is structured like this:
```
├── dist/
│ ├── @types
│ ├── cjs
│ └── esm
├── src
│ ├── folder1
│ ├── folder2
│ ├── folder3
│ └── index.ts
├── package.json
└── README.md
```

## Usage
The best way to use this package is to integrate it with your build process by appending the `postbuild` worker to the end of the `build` command:

```json
// package.json
{
"scripts": {
"build": "npm run build:esm && npm run build:cjs && postbuild",
"build:esm": "tsc --project tsconfig.esm.json",
"build:cjs": "tsc --project tsconfig.cjs.json",
}
}
```

#### Defining aliases
In `postbuild.config.json`, you can add your aliases as such:

```json
{
"aliases": {
"my-module": "/modules/my-module",
"@elements/*": "/elements/"
}
}
```

#### Using `__dirname`
All `__dirname` matches in `ESM` will be replaced with `import.meta.dirname`, for example:

```ts
// TypeScript
const dirname: string = __dirname;
```

Will be compiled to:
```js
// CommonJS (CJS)
const dirname = __dirname;
```

```js
// ECMAScript Modules (ESM)
const dirname = import.meta.dirname;
```
