wch-coffee

library0.3.2jsnpmunverified

CoffeeScript transpiler for wchd (version 0.3.2). Integrates with wchd build tool to compile CoffeeScript source files from a 'src' directory. Requires peer dependency wch ^0.10.0 and CoffeeScript as a devDependency. Focused on simplicity: set main in package.json, run 'wch start' for server and 'wch .' for watching. Lightweight but niche; no active release cadence observed. Differentiator: minimal configuration vs other CoffeeScript build tools like gulp-coffee, but tied to wchd ecosystem.

default

✓ import 'wch-coffee'

✗ const wchCoffee = require('wch-coffee')

wch-coffee is a plugin for wchd; imported as a side-effect module, not as a named export. Typically added to package.json as a devDependency without explicit import in user code.

Demonstrates basic setup: package.json config, devDependencies, and commands to run wchd server and watch for changes.

// In package.json: // { // "main": "lib/index.js", // "devDependencies": { // "wch": "^0.10.0", // "wch-coffee": "^0.3.2", // "coffeescript": "^2.7.0" // } // } // Place CoffeeScript files in src/ // Run in terminal: // npx wch start // npx wch .

deprecatedDeprecated in favor of native wch support for CoffeeScript? Check if wchd has built-in transpilation.

fix

affects: >=0.3.0

gotchaCoffeeScript version not pinned; user must add 'coffeescript' as a devDependency. Using incompatible CoffeeScript version may break transpilation.

fix
