ts-loader outDir issue
UPDATE:
Intendend behaviour since 5.0.0 as mentioned in TypeStrong/ts-loader#822. Adding the dist folder to outDir from webpack.config.js (or tsconfig.json) fixes the issue.
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.tsx?$/,
loader: "ts-loader",
options: {
compilerOptions: {
outDir: './dist'
}
}
}
]
},
Issue:
Versions 4.3.0-4.5.0 of ts-loader correctly place the typescript declaration files inside the dist folder when "outDir" is set to "./".
However upgrading ts-loader to 5.0.0-5.3.0 will result in the d.ts files being spit out in the root directory of the project rather than in the dist folder.
