I want to implement e2e in my Angular v5.x
project using protractor.js. But when I run the command
ng e2e -s false
I'm getting this error below can anyone tell me how do I fix this?
[15:58:11] E/launcher - Error: TSError: ⨯ Unable to compile TypeScript

Here is my tsconfig.json (which is located inside e2e
folder)-
{
"compileOnSave": false,
"compilerOptions": {
"declaration": false,
"emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
"experimentalDecorators": true,
"module": "commonjs",
"moduleResolution": "node",
"outDir": "../dist/out-tsc-e2e",
"sourceMap": true,
"target": "es5",
"typeRoots": [
"../node_modules/@types"
]
}
}
With reference to this issue on GitHub, I've figured out the solution. The problem is with ts-node
version. My version was 1.2.x
and for ng e2e -s false
to work it needs a v5.0.1
.
Version >v5.0.1
are also throwing the same error.
NOTE:- I didn't update any other files or dependencies
Thanks to @ashish701ranjan for the solution
