Usage with tsc --build option

[niklas-dahl]

I am using project-references https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/project-references.html and would like to reload my server if any of the referenced projects change.
Using tsc --build --incremental --watch already does everything I want, there is just no way to restart the server once tsc is done with a change.
As far as I understand microsoft/TypeScript#29978 it should be possible.
But it seems that ts-node has not adopted the new APIs TypeStrong/ts-node#817.

Is it possible with this tool to just pass the required flags to tsc?
Setting build, incremental, watch to true in the tsconfig.json does not work.

Thanks.

Did you try:
tsc-watch --build --incremental (--watch is automatically added by tsc-watch)

Oh wow thanks, did actually not try that, it seems to work perfectly.

Just another small thing, piping the output like this --onSuccess \"node js/index.js | pino-pretty -t -c\" does not seem to work, I just get the regular output.

The commands MUST be one command, you can run an npm command that does just that.

That works! Thanks.
