sui-ts-transpiler-advanced

library1.0.0jsnpmunverified

A CLI tool and SDK (v1.0.0) that converts TypeScript smart contracts to Sui Move language with full logic preservation, not just structural mapping. Released as an initial stable version, it offers commands for project init, transpilation, and build. Key differentiators include support for classes, type mappings (string→vector<u8>, number→u64, bigint→u256), and programmatic usage via import. Suitable for developers working with Sui blockchain who prefer TypeScript over Move.

SuiMoveTranspiler

✓ import { SuiMoveTranspiler } from 'sui-ts-transpiler-advanced'

✗ const SuiMoveTranspiler = require('sui-ts-transpiler-advanced')

ESM-only; CJS require not supported in v1.0.0

default

✓ import SuiMoveTranspiler from 'sui-ts-transpiler-advanced'

✗ import { SuiMoveTranspiler } from 'sui-ts-transpiler-advanced'

Default export available; named import also works but default is preferred for single-class usage

Type-only import for TypeScript; no runtime value

Programmatic usage of sui-ts-transpiler-advanced to transpile a TypeScript class to Sui Move

import { SuiMoveTranspiler } from 'sui-ts-transpiler-advanced'; const transpiler = new SuiMoveTranspiler({ outputDir: 'build', moduleName: 'my_contract', packageName: 'my_package' }); const tsCode = ` class Token { private name: string; private supply: number; constructor(name: string, supply: number) { this.name = name; this.supply = supply; } } `; const result = transpiler.transpile(tsCode); if (result.success) { console.log('Generated Move code:', result.moveCode); } else { console.error('Errors:', result.errors); }

Debug

Known issues

breakingRequires Node >=16.0.0; lower versions will fail to load the package.

fix

Upgrade Node.js to version 16+.

affects: <16.0.0

breakingESM-only package; attempting require() will throw ERR_REQUIRE_ESM.

fix

Use import syntax or dynamic import() instead of require().

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedThe --verbose flag is deprecated in favor of environment variable DEBUG=sui-ts-transpiler.

fix

Use DEBUG=sui-ts-transpiler sui-ts transpile instead of -v/--verbose.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaTypeScript private fields are not transpiled to Move private fields; Move uses module-level visibility.

fix

All class fields become public struct fields in Move; adjust security assumptions.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module /path/to/node_modules/sui-ts-transpiler-advanced/index.js from /path/to/file.js not supported.

Package is ESM-only; CommonJS require() is not supported.

fix

Convert your file to ES module (use 'type': 'module' in package.json) or use dynamic import() instead.

SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module

The import statement is used in a CommonJS file.

fix

Add 'type': 'module' to your package.json or rename file to .mjs.

TypeError: Class constructor SuiMoveTranspiler cannot be invoked without 'new'

SuiMoveTranspiler must be instantiated with the new keyword; it is not a factory function.

fix

Use 'new SuiMoveTranspiler(options)' instead of calling it as a function.
