library2.1.3jsnpmunverified

mistc is a compiler for Mist templates, a UI templating language. Version 2.1.3 ships TypeScript declarations and provides both a CLI tool and a programmatic API. It supports minification, binary compilation, platform targeting, and various TSX optimization options. The package is stable with a moderate release cadence. Key differentiators include first-class Mist template support, TSX-like options, and an integrated CLI for building.

Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

compile

✓ import { compile } from 'mistc'

✗ import compile from 'mistc'

compile is a named export, not default. TypeScript users should use named import.

CompileOptions

✓ import type { CompileOptions } from 'mistc'

✗ import { CompileOptions } from 'mistc'

CompileOptions is a type, use type import to avoid runtime overhead.

CLI

✓ import { CLI } from 'mistc'

✗ const CLI = require('mistc').CLI

CLI is a named export. CJS require is possible but not idiomatic; prefer ESM.

Demonstrates using the compile API with minification and tsxOptions, plus CLI shorthand.

import { compile } from 'mistc'; async function build() { const result = await compile('/path/to/template.mist', { minify: true, tsxOptions: { removeConsoleLog: false, symbolNameOptimization: true, shortStyleKeyOptimization: false } }); console.log('Compiled output:', result); } build().catch(console.error); // CLI equivalent: // mistc -o output.js --minify template.mist

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe CLI tool globally installs via `npm install -g mistc`. If you have a local install, the global command may conflict or run a different version.

fix

Use npx mistc or a script in package.json to ensure local version.

affects: >=2.0

deprecatedThe `--check-update` option returns a JSON string with version info; this may be removed in future versions. Rely on npm check-update tools instead.

fix

Use `npm outdated -g mistc` or similar.

affects: >=2.1

gotchaThe compile function expects an absolute or relative file path, not a file URL (e.g., file://).

fix

Use a valid filesystem path string.

affects: >=2.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'mistc'

Package not installed in current directory or global path not set.

fix

Run `npm install mistc` locally, or `npm install -g mistc` for global CLI.

compile is not a function

Default import when named export is required.

fix

Use `import { compile } from 'mistc'` instead of `import compile from 'mistc'`.

SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'export'

Using ESM syntax in a CommonJS environment without transpilation.

fix

Add `"type": "module"` to package.json or use .mjs extension.
