typescripttsconfig.json

How can I generate a tsconfig.json file?

How can I generate a tsconfig.json via the command line? I tried command tsc init, but this doesn't work.

Solution

  • It is supported since the release of TypeScript 1.6.

    The correct command is --init not init:

    $ tsc --init

    Try to run in your console the following to check the version:

    $ tsc -v

    If the version is older than 1.6 you will need to update:

    $ npm install -g typescript

    Remember that you need to install node.js to use npm.
