rollup-plugin-ts-compiler

library1.0.18jsnpmunverified

A TypeScript compiler plugin for Rollup that uses the TypeScript Compiler API with incremental program for fast compilation. Version 1.0.18 is stable. The plugin supports compiler errors, incremental builds, declarations, source maps, and monorepo setups. It differs from alternatives like rollup-plugin-typescript2 and @rollup/plugin-typescript by using modern TypeScript APIs for performance, but at the cost of bypassing Rollup's preceding pipeline.

Verified usage

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

default

✓ import typescript from 'rollup-plugin-ts-compiler'

✗ const typescript = require('rollup-plugin-ts-compiler')

The library is ESM-only; CommonJS require() will fail.

typescript

✓ import typescript from 'rollup-plugin-ts-compiler'

✗ import { typescript } from 'rollup-plugin-ts-compiler'

The default export is the plugin function; there is no named export.

TypeScriptPluginOptions

✓ import type { TypeScriptPluginOptions } from 'rollup-plugin-ts-compiler'

✗ import { TypeScriptPluginOptions } from 'rollup-plugin-ts-compiler' (without type)

Options type is only exported as a TypeScript type, not a runtime value.

Shows basic usage of rollup-plugin-ts-compiler with Rollup, including compiler options override.

import typescript from 'rollup-plugin-ts-compiler'; export default { input: './src/index.ts', output: { file: './dist/bundle.js', format: 'esm' }, plugins: [ typescript({ compilerOptions: { target: 'es2020', module: 'esnext' } }) ] };

Debug

Known issues

gotchaBypasses Rollup's preceding pipeline: the plugin reads .ts files directly from the filesystem, ignoring any previous Rollup plugins that modify TypeScript source code.

fix

Place this plugin before any other plugins that need to transform TypeScript code, or be aware that earlier plugins won't affect compiled output.

affects: >=1.0.0

breakingNamed export removed in v1.0.0: prior versions exported a named function 'typescript', but now the default export is the plugin function.

fix

Use default import: import typescript from 'rollup-plugin-ts-compiler'

affects: <1.0.0

gotchaMonorepo mode can cause unnecessary recompilation: setting 'monorepo: true' forces the plugin to watch and recompile files outside the project root, which may include large node_modules in non-monorepo contexts.

fix

Only enable monorepo when you have local packages in a monorepo; otherwise leave it false.

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedShared state via 'sharedState' option may be deprecated in future versions. No official deprecation notice, but consider using Rollup's native caching mechanisms.

fix

Avoid relying on sharedState for long-term; monitor releases for alternatives.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module not supported

Using CommonJS require() to load the ESM-only library.

fix

Switch to ESM (e.g., add 'type': 'module' in package.json) or use dynamic import().

TypeError: typescript is not a function

Using named import 'typescript' instead of default import.

fix

Use default import: import typescript from 'rollup-plugin-ts-compiler'

The 'compilerOptions' option does not match tsconfig.json: 'module' can only be 'ES2015', 'ES2020', 'ESNext', etc. when target is 'ESNext'.

Incompatible compilerOptions override violating TypeScript rules.

fix

Ensure the overridden options are valid according to TypeScript's constraints.
