A TypeScript Rollup plugin that bundles declarations, respects Browserslists, and enables seamless integration with transpilers such as babel and swc
I no longer actively maintain this library. The most recent TypeScript version that rollup-plugin-ts is fully compatible with is v5.1.6. There are many great alternatives in the ecosystem nowadays, including the official @rollup/plugin-typescript and rollup-plugin-dts.
The declaration bundling component of rollup-plugin-ts, and the fact that it supports code splitting, is arguably its' most popular feature. I might separate the declaration bundling component of rollup-plugin-ts into its own separate library in time.
A TypeScript Rollup plugin that bundles declarations, respects Browserslists, and enables seamless integration with transpilers such as babel and swc
This is first and foremost a TypeScript plugin for Rollup that brings the best of both together in a package that also respects Browserslists, bundles declaration files, and enables seamless integration with other transpilers such as Babel and swc.
One of the most powerful features of rollup-plugin-ts is declaration bundling and tree-shaking that works seamlessly with code splitting. That means you'll always get the smallest possible declaration files that match exactly what you're exporting, without any superflous type information.
Tooling in the JavaScript ecosystem can often be complex, and this is very much the case when intending to combine TypeScript with other tools such as Babel and Browserslists while still maintaining the unique emit capabilities of tsc. rollup-plugin-ts differs from other TypeScript plugins in being opiniated about how some of these tools integrate in order to achieve the most optimal behavior with the smallest possible computational overhead. For example, when combined with another transpiler such as Babel, TypeScript handles diagnostics and declarations, while Babel is used for part of or all of the syntax transformations. You can even configure which transpiler takes care of the TypeScript-specific syntax, and which transpiler takes care of the remaining syntax. For example, you can let the TypeScript compiler strip away type information, while handling the rest of the syntax transformation with babel or swc.
At the same time, rollup-plugin-ts has a very robust test suite that runs tests across all minor versions of TypeScript since v3.4 to ensure that everything works no matter which version of TypeScript you or your team is using.

$ npm install rollup-plugin-ts --save-dev
$ yarn add rollup-plugin-ts --dev
$ pnpm add rollup-plugin-ts --save-dev
rollup-plugin-ts depends on rollup and typescript, so you need to manually install these as development dependencies as well.
You may also need to install additional peer dependencies such as @babel/core, @babel/runtime, @babel/preset-env, @babel/preset-typescript, @babel/plugin-transform-runtime, @swc/core, or @swc/helpers depending on the features you are going to use. Refer to the documentation for the specific cases where any of these may be relevant.
Using the plugin is as simple as it can be. Here's an example within a Rollup config:
import ts from "rollup-plugin-ts"; export default { // ... plugins: [ ts({ /* Plugin options */ }) ] };
Without any options, the plugin will "just work":
tsconfig.json file closest to the current working directory will be resolved, if any. Otherwise, the default Typescript options will be used..browserslistrc file or browserslist property within the package.json file closest to the current working directory will be resolved and used to decide the Typescript ECMAScript version target, if any. Otherwise, the declared target within the resolved tsconfig.json file will be used, if any such file exists, and if not, the default Typescript target will be used.This plugin works very well with just Typescript.
The tsconfig.json file closest to your project will be resolved and used in combination with Rollup.
If your config has a different name, or if you use different configs dynamically depending on the environment, you can provide the location for the tsconfig in the plugin options:
ts({ tsconfig: PRODUCTION ? "tsconfig.prod.json" : "tsconfig.json" });
You an also pass in CompilerOptions directly, rather than provide the path to a tsconfig:
ts({ tsconfig: { target: ScriptTarget.ES2018, allowSyntheticDefaultImports: true, allowJs: true } });
You can also pass in a function that receives whatever CompilerOptions that could be resolved relative to the current working directory, but then allow you to override the options:
ts({ tsconfig: resolvedConfig => ({...resolvedConfig, allowJs: false}) });
The above example is based on the assumption that a file can be resolved with the name tsconfig.json, and if not, the Typescript's default CompilerOptions will be used.
But if you want to provide the name of the tsconfig to override, you can also pass in an object following the following form:
ts({ tsconfig: { fileName: "my-awesome-tsconfig.json", hook: resolvedConfig => ({...resolvedConfig, allowJs: false}) } });
If there is a .browserslistrc file or the nearest package.json contains a Browserslist configuration, a target ECMAScript version will be decided based on that one, rather than respecting the target property of the matched tsconfig.
If you do not want this behavior, you can disable it as described here.
This plugin makes sure that the helper functions that may be emitted within the output generated by Typescript will not be duplicated across files and chunks. Instead, they will automatically be divided into chunks and imported across Rollup chunks. You don't have to do anything!
If there is a .browserslistrc file or the nearest package.json contains a Browserslist configuration, this is the default behavior! Rather than use the target property of the nearest tsconfig, it will be decided based on the Browserslist.
You can explicitly pass in Browserslist options. Here's an example with a raw Browserslist query:
ts({ browserslist: ["last 1 version", "> 1%"] });
You can also provide a configuration object instead of a raw query. Here's one with a baked-in query:
ts({ browserslist: { query: ["last 1 version", "> 1%"] } });
...And here's one with a path property pointing to a file that contains a Browserslist:
ts({ browserslist: { path: ".mybrowserslistrc" } });
If no Browserslist can be found, or if you simply don't want to use one, that's completely OK!
In such cases, the target property of the nearest tsconfig will be used (or use the Typescript default setting if no such file exists).
You can explicitly request that no Browserslist will be used by setting the browserslist property to false in the plugin options:
ts({ browserslist: false });
This plugin makes it really easy to use Typescript for reporting diagnostics and generating declaration files, but then using Babel for all syntax transformations.
One very strong use case for this is to use @babel/preset-env. Another one is that you get the entire ecosystem of Babel plugins at your disposal.
To use Babel, first set the transpiler plugin option to "babel":
ts({ transpiler: "babel" });
Now, all that remains is to simply install the peer dependencies relevant to babel. Please install @babel/core, @babel/runtime, @babel/plugin-transform-runtime, @babel/preset-typescript, and @babel/preset-env as well with your package manager:
npm
$ npm install @babel/core @babel/runtime @babel/plugin-transform-runtime @babel/preset-typescript @babel/preset-env --save-dev
Yarn
$ yarn add @babel/core @babel/runtime @babel/plugin-transform-runtime @babel/preset-typescript @babel/preset-env --dev
pnpm
$ pnpm add @babel/core @babel/runtime @babel/plugin-transform-runtime @babel/preset-typescript @babel/preset-env --save-dev
Don't worry if you don't, rollup-plugin-ts will warn you about exactly which dependencies are missing once you run it.
Once you're done installing peer dependencies, that's it! The plugin will attempt to locate a babel.config.js file or a .babelrc file and use the options, plugins, and presets found there.
By default, some combination of presets and plugins will be applied depending on the config options you provide, while others will be forced at all times for interoperability reasons. See this section for more details.
By default, when using Babel as the transpiler, @babel/preset-env will be used as a preset that respects the browserslist that was either provided directly as a plugin option, or was resolved inside the root of your project, or was computed based on your tsconfig.json file.
If you don't want this behavior, simply pass the browserslist: false option to the plugin. Doing so will never apply @babel/preset-env and not apply any additional syntax transformations:
ts({ transpiler: "babel", browserslist: false });
This plugin will apply syntax transformations from Babel presets and plugins on a file-by-file basis. However, if a minification-related plugin or preset such as babel-preset-minify is found within the Babel options, these transformations will be applied per chunk. This enables the minification presets and plugins to perform better as it can now mangle in relation to the entire chunk and better remove unwanted characters such as whitespace. All of this works automatically.
This plugin will automatically make sure to avoid duplication of emitted Babel helpers. Rollup will automatically split these into chunks and re-use them across the chunks that Rollup generates. You don't have to do anything.
Babel supports injecting polyfills where needed and in relation to the target environment. By default, this plugin will not add polyfills to your chunks since there are arguably better ways of applying polyfills such as lazy-loading depending on feature support or using something like Polyfill.app.
If you would like this behavior, simply add either @babel/plugin-transform-runtime to your Babel config with the corejs option set to true, or add @babel/preset-env to your Babel config with the useBuiltIns option set to usage.
Just like with Babel, this plugin makes it trivial to use TypeScript for reporting diagnostics, generating declaration files, and stripping types, but then using swc for all other syntax transformations.
Swc is a much faster alternative to Babel, built in Rust, that attempts to be as close to a drop-in replacement for Babel as possible. It is not nearly as mature and doesn't have as big a plugin ecosystem yet, but can often be much faster than Babel. And like Babel, it also has first-class support for Browserslists which will be used to decide which syntax transformations to apply depending on language support in the target environments.
To use swc, first set the transpiler plugin option to "swc":
ts({ transpiler: "swc" });
Now, all that remains is to simply install the peer dependencies relevant to swc. Please install @swc/core and @swc/helpers as well with your package manager:
npm
$ npm install @swc/core @swc/helpers --save-dev
Yarn
$ yarn add @swc/core @swc/helpers --dev
pnpm
$ pnpm add @swc/core @swc/helpers --save-dev
Don't worry if you don't, rollup-plugin-ts will warn you about exactly which dependencies are missing once you run it.
Once you're done installing peer dependencies, that's it! The plugin will attempt to locate a .swcrc file and use the options found there.
By default, some combination of options will be applied depending on the config options you provide, while others will be forced at all times for interoperability reasons. See this section for more details.
By default, the transpiler you select, such as typescript, babel, or swc, is used for the entire syntax transformation. However, you may want to mix these. There can be quite good reasons why you may want that, as described here.
In short, you may find value in using the TypeScript compiler for stripping away the TypeScript specific syntax, and then delegate the remaining syntax transformations to swc or babel.
To accomplish this, the transpiler option also allows for an options record:
ts({ transpiler: { typescriptSyntax: "typescript", otherSyntax: "babel" } });
In this example, the TypeScript compiler will first remove features such as types, type-only imports, enums, and decorators. Babel will then be used for all other syntax transformation from then on, depending on the combination of default, provided, and forced presets and plugins.
This plugin enables you to pass in Custom Transformers which allows you to transform the Typescript AST during code transpilation.
This enables you to very efficiently transform Typescript before code generation and additionally enables you to use this plugin with tools that leverage this, such as some modern web frameworks and libraries do.
Please note that if you want to combine Custom Transformers with other transpilers such as babel, you must mix them such that the typeScript transpiler is used for the typescriptSyntax option as described above.
Typescript declaration files are normally distributed in a folder structure that resembles the structure of the source folder.
With tsc, you would get something like this:
Rollup is a bundler, and with it, we can produce clean, small files that are easy to distribute.
With rollup-plugin-ts, declaration files will be bundled, tree-shaken and emitted alongside the chunks emitted by Rollup:
And, it even works in complex code splitting scenarios:
if you're using TypeScript v4.7 or newer, the extension of your declaration files will depend on the extensions of your output files as controlled by your Rollup config:
.js output files will produce .d.ts and optionally .d.ts.map files.mjs output files will produce .d.mts and optionally .d.mts.map files.cjs output files will produce .d.cts and optionally .d.cts.map filests({ // If your tsconfig is already called 'tsconfig.json', this option can be left out tsconfig: "tsconfig.json", // If there is no .browserslistrc within your project, and if your package.json doesn't include a Browserslist property, this option can be left out browserslist: false });
As described here, by default, the plugin will attempt to locate a Browserslist automatically. This example shows how you can provide one explicitly
ts({ browserslist: ["last 1 version", "> 1%"] }); // or ts({ browserslist: {path: ".mybrowserslistrc"} });
As described here, a babel.config.js or .babelrc file will automatically be found by the plugin if available. This example shows how you can provide one explicitly.
And, as described here, the same goes for Browserslists.
ts({ transpiler: "babel", browserslist: ["last 1 version", "> 1%"], babelConfig: { plugins: ["my-babel-plugin"] } });
This is like the example above, but with the addition of mixing transpilers.
ts({ transpiler: { typescriptSyntax: "typescript", otherSyntax: "babel" }, browserslist: ["last 1 version", "> 1%"], babelConfig: { plugins: ["my-babel-plugin"] } });
As described here, a .swcrc file will automatically be found by the plugin if available. This example shows how you can provide one explicitly.
And, as described here, the same goes for Browserslists.
ts({ transpiler: "swc", browserslist: ["last 1 version", "> 1%"], swcConfig: { minify: true } });
This is like the example above, but with the addition of mixing transpilers.
ts({ transpiler: { typescriptSyntax: "typescript", otherSyntax: "swc" }, browserslist: ["last 1 version", "> 1%"], swcConfig: { minify: true } });
ts({ transformers: { before: [myTransformer1, myTransformer2], after: [myTransformer3, myTransformer4], afterDeclarations: [myTransformer5, myTransformer6] } });
This example shows how you can use this plugin to accomplish quite advanced things:
const IS_PRODUCTION = process.env.NODE_ENV === "production"; const BUNDLE_TARGET = process.env.BUNDLE_TARGET; const APP_ROOT = "/some/project/root/folder"; const awesomeFrameworkTransformers = getAwesomeFrameworkCustomTransformers(); ts({ // Use TypeScript for stripping away types and other TypeScript-specific features, // and then use babel for the remaining transformation. transpiler: { typescriptSyntax: "typescript", otherSyntax: "babel" }, // Don't use process.cwd(), but instead another root directory cwd: APP_ROOT, // Load a different tsconfig file in production tsconfig: IS_PRODUCTION ? "tsconfig.prod.json" : "tsconfig.json", // Load a different browserslist if currently targeting a modern environment browserslist: { path: BUNDLE_TARGET === "modern" ? ".browserslistrc-modern" : ".browserslistrc-legacy" }, // Load a different babel config file in production babelConfig: IS_PRODUCTION ? "babel.config.prod.js" : "babel.config.js", // Exclude files within node_modules when not in production exclude: IS_PRODUCTION ? [] : ["node_modules/**/*.*"], // Apply CustomTransformers, for example to transform the Source Code with a framework that uses some transformers: awesomeFrameworkTransformers });
You can use pass a specific TypeScript to use as an option. This may be useful if you are using different TypeScript versions across packages inside a monorepo and you want to use a specific one with rollup-plugin-ts:
ts({ typescript: specialTypescriptVersion });
rollup-plugin-ts provides a few hooks that allow you to hook into and augment the internal behavior of the plugin.
These can be provided in the plugin options for the hook property:
ts({ hook: { // Add hooks here } });
The next few subsections describe the different hooks that can be provided
Type: (path: string, kind: "declaration" | "declarationMap" | "buildInfo") => string | undefined
The outputPath hook can be used to rewrite the location on the filesystem that assets produced by rollup-plugin-ts are written to.
It is invoked immediately before assets such as declarations or declaration maps are emitted.
The hook is invoked with the output path as well as the kind of asset the path represents as arguments.
If you return a string from the hook, the alternative location will be used instead. If you return undefined, the current path will be used.
ts({ hook: { outputPath: (path, kind) => rewritePathSomehow(path, kind) } });
For example, the path may be /some/path/index.d.ts, and kind be declaration, and you might want to rewrite this to /some/path/my-typings.d.ts.
Type: (diagnostics: readonly Diagnostic[]) => readonly Diagnostic[]|undefined
The diagnostics hook can be used to read, alter, and extend the diagnostics generated by TypeScript immediately before they are emitted as errors via Rollup.
Normally, Rollup will crash on the first discovered error, but there may be several diagnostics, all of which may be of interest to you. This hook gives you access to all of them.
You can also use this hook if you want to silence specific kinds of Diagnostics or even add your own.
Type: (stats: DeclarationStats) => DeclarationStats|undefined
The declarationStats hook can be used to get relevant stats produced while bundling declarations.
The hook calls the given callback with a stats object as the first argument.
The stats object has the following type information:
// A Record from chunk file names to their stats type DeclarationStats = Record<string, DeclarationChunkStats>; interface DeclarationChunkStats { // An array of the external type dependencies for a declaration chunk externalTypes: ExternalType[]; } interface ExternalType { // The name of the external library that provides the typings. For example, "typescript" or "@types/node" library: string; // The version of the referenced external library version: string; }
The externalTypes property of declaration chunk stats objects can be useful, for example, if you want to get a hook into which external type dependencies that remain
after bundling and tree-shaking and that you should declare as dependencies of your library.
Here's an example of how you might use the hook:
ts({ hook: { declarationStats: declarationStats => console.log(declarationStats) } });
The example above could log something like the following to the console:
{ "index.d.ts": { externalTypes: [ { library: "typescript", version: "3.9.2" }, { library: "@types/node", version: "14.0.26" } ] }, "some-other-chunk.d.ts": { externalTypes: [ { library: "some-other-external-library", version: "1.2.3" } ] } }
This gives you an easy way to track which external type dependencies remain in your bundled and tree-shaken declarations and that should be declared as dependencies of your library.
The plugin options are documented in more detail across this README, but the full list of options is:
Type: "typescript" | "babel" | "swc"| {typescriptSyntax: "typescript" | "babel" | "swc"; otherSyntax: "typescript" | "babel" | "swc"}
Can be any of "babel", "swc", or "typescript" (default: "typescript").
Alternatively, it can be an options object with properties typescriptSyntax and otherSyntax, where any of the aforementioned transpilers can be used in combination.
See this section for details on how to combine transpilers.
Type: string | Partial<BabelConfig>
This option will only be respected when "babel" is being used as the transpiler and can be used to provide a Babel config or a path to one.
Type: string | Partial<SwcConfig>
This option will only be respected when "swc" is being used as the transpiler and can be used to provide a swc config or a path to one.
Type: string | Partial<CompilerOptions> | Partial<Record<keyof CompilerOptions, string | number | boolean>> | ParsedCommandLine | TsConfigResolver | TsConfigResolverWithFileName
Provide the TypeScript CompilerOptions to use, or a path to a tsconfig with this property.
See this section for details on the many ways this property can be configured.
Type: false | string[] | string | BrowserslistConfig
Provide the Browserslist to use, or a path to a .browserslistrc with this property.
See this section for details on the many ways this property can be configured.
Type: string
Use this property to overwrite whatever is considered the root directory. The default value is process.cwd().
Type: typeof import("typescript")
Use this property to pass a specific version of TypeScript to use.
Type: (CustomTransformers | CustomTransformersFunction)[] | CustomTransformers | CustomTransformersFunction
Use this property to provide TypeScript CustomTransformers.
See this section for more details on how to configure this property.
Type: string[]|string
This option takes a minimatch pattern or an array of minimatch patterns and only transforms files with filenames that the pattern matches.
Type: string[]|string
This option takes a minimatch pattern or an array of minimatch patterns and only transforms files with filenames that the pattern doesn't match.
Type: boolean
If this option is true, diagnostics won't be generated. This will improve performance since TypeScript but ignores all syntactical and semantic errors or warnings that may arise.
Optionally the FileSystem to use. This is useful for example when you want to provide a virtual FileSystem to read from or write to.
Note that this must conform with the System interface declared by TypeScript, rather than the fs module.
Use this property to get hooks into the internals of rollup-plugin-ts.
See this section for more details.
TypeScript and Babel are powerful tools in their own right. Combined with Rollup, they become even more powerful. To provide a seamless experience, Rollup always take precedence when conflicts arise. As a natural consequence of this, some options provided to TypeScript and Babel will be ignored or overridden.
The following CompilerOptions from a tsconfig will be ignored:
| Property | Reason |
|---|---|
outDir |
Rollup, not TypeScript, will decide where to emit chunks. |
module |
Rollup, not TypeScript, is the decider of which module system(s) to target based on your Rollup configuration. |
outFile |
This option produces flat output and only works with the module formats AMD and SystemJS. Rollup will be the decider of how to split code. |
sourceMap |
TypeScript will always be instructed to produce SourceMaps. Rollup then decides whether or not to include them (and if they should be inlined). |
inlineSourceMap |
TypeScript will always be instructed to produce SourceMaps. Rollup then decides whether or not to include them (and if they should be inlined). |
inlineSources |
Since inlineSourceMap is ignored, this option won't take effect. |
importHelpers |
Helpers will always be imported. This makes it possible for Rollup to code-split properly and share TypeScript helpers across chunks. |
moduleResolution |
Node-module resolution will always be used. This is required for importHelpers to work and in general, to make TypeScript able to resolve external libraries. Note that you still need to add the nodeResolve plugin in order to include external libraries within your bundle unless allowJs is true within your tsconfig |
noEmit |
TypeScript should always be able to emit assets, but those will be delegated to Rollup. |
noEmitOnError |
See above. |
emitDeclarationOnly |
See above. |
noEmitHelpers |
TypeScript should always be able to emit helpers, since the importHelpers option is forced |
noResolve |
TypeScript should always be able to resolve things. Otherwise, compilation might break. |
watch |
Rollup, not TypeScript, will watch files if run in watch mode. Efficient caching will still be used for optimum performance. |
preserveWatchOutput |
See above |
The following additional options will also be ignored:
| Property | Reason |
|---|---|
include |
Rollup itself will decide which files to include in the transformation process based on your code. This plugin itself takes a include property which you should use instead if you want to explicitly allow specific files or gl |
