TypeScript Interactive Development Environment for Emacs

screencast

Installation

  • Tide requires Emacs 25 or later. We recommend Emacs 27 or later with native json support.
  • Install node.js v0.14.0 or greater.
  • Make sure tsconfig.json or jsconfig.json is present in the root folder of the project.
  • Tide is available in melpa. You can install tide via package-install M-x package-install [ret] tide

Configuration

TypeScript

(defun setup-tide-mode ()
  (interactive)
  (tide-setup)
  (flycheck-mode +1)
  (setq flycheck-check-syntax-automatically '(save mode-enabled))
  (eldoc-mode +1)
  (tide-hl-identifier-mode +1)
  ;; company is an optional dependency. You have to
  ;; install it separately via package-install
  ;; `M-x package-install [ret] company`
  (company-mode +1))

;; aligns annotation to the right hand side
(setq company-tooltip-align-annotations t)

;; formats the buffer before saving
(add-hook 'before-save-hook 'tide-format-before-save)

;; if you use typescript-mode
(add-hook 'typescript-mode-hook #'setup-tide-mode)
;; if you use treesitter based typescript-ts-mode (emacs 29+)
(add-hook 'typescript-ts-mode-hook #'setup-tide-mode)

Format options

Format options can be specified in multiple ways.

  • via elisp
(setq tide-format-options '(:insertSpaceAfterFunctionKeywordForAnonymousFunctions t :placeOpenBraceOnNewLineForFunctions nil))
  • via tsfmt.json (should be present in the root folder along with tsconfig.json)
{
  "indentSize": 4,
  "tabSize": 4,
  "insertSpaceAfterOpeningAndBeforeClosingTemplateStringBraces": false,
  "placeOpenBraceOnNewLineForFunctions": false,
  "placeOpenBraceOnNewLineForControlBlocks": false
}

Check here for the full list of supported format options.

TSX without treesitter

(require 'web-mode)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.tsx\\'" . web-mode))
(add-hook 'web-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (when (string-equal "tsx" (file-name-extension buffer-file-name))
              (setup-tide-mode))))
;; enable typescript-tslint checker
(flycheck-add-mode 'typescript-tslint 'web-mode)

TSX with treesitter

Treesitter comes with tsx major mode built in.

(add-hook 'tsx-ts-mode-hook #'setup-tide-mode)

Tide also provides support for editing js & jsx files. Tide checkers javascript-tide and jsx-tide are not enabled by default for js & jsx files. It can be enabled by setting flycheck-checker

JavaScript

Create jsconfig.json in the root folder of your project. jsconfig.json is tsconfig.json with allowJs attribute set to true.

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es2017",
    "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
    "noEmit": true,
    "checkJs": true,
    "jsx": "react",
    "lib": [ "dom", "es2017" ]
  }
}
(add-hook 'js2-mode-hook #'setup-tide-mode)
;; configure javascript-tide checker to run after your default javascript checker
(flycheck-add-next-checker 'javascript-eslint 'javascript-tide 'append)

JSX

(require 'web-mode)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.jsx\\'" . web-mode))
(add-hook 'web-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (when (string-equal "jsx" (file-name-extension buffer-file-name))
              (setup-tide-mode))))
;; configure jsx-tide checker to run after your default jsx checker
(flycheck-add-mode 'javascript-eslint 'web-mode)
(flycheck-add-next-checker 'javascript-eslint 'jsx-tide 'append)

Use Package

;; if you use typescript-mode
(use-package tide
  :ensure t
  :after (typescript-mode company flycheck)
  :hook ((typescript-mode . tide-setup)
         (typescript-mode . tide-hl-identifier-mode)
         (before-save . tide-format-before-save)))
         
;; if you use treesitter based typescript-ts-mode (emacs 29+)
(use-package tide
  :ensure t
  :after (company flycheck)
  :hook ((typescript-ts-mode . tide-setup)
         (tsx-ts-mode . tide-setup)
         (typescript-ts-mode . tide-hl-identifier-mode)
         (before-save . tide-format-before-save)))

Commands

Keyboard shortcuts Description
M-. Jump to the definition of the symbol at point. With a prefix arg, Jump to the type definition.
M-, Return to your pre-jump position.

M-x tide-restart-server Restart tsserver. This would come in handy after you edit tsconfig.json or checkout a different branch.

M-x tide-documentation-at-point Load the documentation for the symbol at point to buffer *tide-documentation*.

M-x tide-references List all references to the symbol at point in a buffer. References can be navigated using n and p. Press enter to open the file.

M-x tide-project-errors List all errors in the project. Errors can be navigated using n and p. Press enter to open the file.

M-x tide-error-at-point Load the details of the error at point to buffer *tide-error*.

M-x tide-rename-symbol Rename all occurrences of the symbol at point.

M-x tide-rename-file Rename current file and all it's references in other files.

M-x tide-format Format the current region or buffer.

M-x tide-fix Apply code fix for the error at point. When invoked with a prefix arg, apply code fix for all the errors in the file that are similar to the error at point.

M-x tide-add-tslint-disable-next-line If the point is on one or more tslint errors, add a tslint:disable-next-line flag on the previous line to silence the errors. Or, if a flag already exists on the previous line, modify the flag to silence the errors.

M-x tide-refactor Refactor code at point or current region.

M-x tide-jsdoc-template Insert JSDoc comment template at point.

M-x tide-verify-setup Show the version of tsserver.

Debugging

architecture

Tide uses tsserver as the backend for most of the features. It writes out a comprehensive log file which can be captured by setting tide-tsserver-process-environment variable.

(setq tide-tsserver-process-environment '("TSS_LOG=-level verbose -file /tmp/tss.log"))

FAQ?

How do I configure tide to use a specific version of TypeScript compiler?

For TypeScript 2.0 and above, you can customize the tide-tsserver-executable variable. For example

(setq tide-tsserver-executable "node_modules/typescript/bin/tsserver")

Sadly, this won't work for TypeScript < 2.0. You can clone the repo locally and checkout the old version though.

How do I copy the type information shown in the minibuffer?

Tide has the command tide-documentation-at-point to load the documentation for the symbol at point to buffer *tide-documentation* from where it can be copied. By default, tide will not open this buffer if only type information is available. This behavior can be overridden by setting (setq tide-always-show-documentation t)
