outDir is not taking into account

Hi

likely my mistake, but I did not get it to work.

I have the following configuration (just keep relevant fields)

{
    "include": [
        "../../eikon-framework/src/**/*.ts"
    ],
    "compilerOptions": {
        "baseUrl": ".",
        "paths": {
            "df-core/*": ["./build/df-core/*"],
            "*": [
                "./node_modules/*",
                "./node_modules/@types/*"
            ]
        },
        "rootDir": "../../eikon-framework/src",
        "outDir": "./build/eikon-framework"
    }
}

I have the following file: …/…/src/eikon-framework/src/auth/auth-impl.ts import { GetElectronEnvironment } from 'df-core/env';

after the compilation in the outDir folder I have [outDir]/eikon-framework/auth/auth-impl.js const env_1 = require("../../../products/workspace/build/df-core/env/index");

It seems the resolution has been done from the original location of TS file and not from the output location of JS file. With “df-core/“: [”./build/df-core/”] and outDir = ./build/eikon-framework/auth/auth-impl.js

I would expect const env_1 = require("../../df-core/env/index");

Could you help me please

Thanks

@couellet I think you need 2 entries in the plugin section for the transformer to actually work:

https://github.com/LeDDGroup/typescript-transform-paths#example-config

    "plugins": [
      { "transform": "typescript-transform-paths", "useRootDirs": true },
      { "transform": "typescript-transform-paths", "useRootDirs": true, "afterDeclarations": true }
    ]

Looking at your code and debugging the plugin, I found a way to deal with rootDirs.

{
    "include": [
        "../../eikon-framework/src/**/*.ts"
    ],
    "compilerOptions": {
        "rootDirs": ["./build/", "../../eikon-framework"],
        "baseUrl": ".",
        "paths": {
            "df-core/*": ["./build/df-core/*"],
            "*": [
                "./node_modules/*",
                "./node_modules/@types/*"
            ]
        },
        "rootDir": "../../eikon-framework/src",
        "outDir": "./build/eikon-framework"
    }
}

I’m wondering if we could have another way just using ‘paths’, ‘rootDir’ and ‘outDir’ to achieve the same. I have the feeling to duplicate the information.

Feel free to close this issue and thanks for your help and for this plugin.
