I am trying to get TypeScript, react-templates, and webpack to play together.
I started from the sample code at https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/react-&-webpack.html. The webpack.config.js file contains
module.exports = {
entry: "./src/index.tsx",
output: {
filename: "./dist/bundle.js",
},
// Enable sourcemaps for debugging webpack's output.
devtool: "source-map",
resolve: {
// Add '.ts' and '.tsx' as resolvable extensions.
extensions: ["", ".webpack.js", ".web.js", ".ts", ".tsx", ".js"]
},
module: {
loaders: [
// All files with a '.ts' or '.tsx' extension will be handled by 'ts-loader'.
{ test: /\.tsx?$/, loader: "ts-loader" }
],
preLoaders: [
// All output '.js' files will have any sourcemaps re-processed by 'source-map-loader'.
{ test: /\.js$/, loader: "source-map-loader" }
]
},
// When importing a module whose path matches one of the following, just
// assume a corresponding global variable exists and use that instead.
// This is important because it allows us to avoid bundling all of our
// dependencies, which allows browsers to cache those libraries between builds.
externals: {
"react": "React",
"react-dom": "ReactDOM"
},
};
and Hello.tsx contains
import * as React from "react";
export interface HelloProps { compiler: string; framework: string; }
export class Hello extends React.Component<HelloProps, {}> {
render() {
return <h1>Hello from {this.props.compiler} and {this.props.framework}!</h1>;
}
}
All required npm packages have been installed. When I run webpack, the application runs correctly.
If, after using npm to install react-templates and react-templates-loader, I added the following line to the loaders section of webpack.config.js
{test: /\.rt$/, loaders: ['react-templates-loader?modules=typescript']}
and updated the extensions section to include .rt. I extracted the embedded HTML from Hello.tsx:
import * as React from "react";
import template from "./Hello.rt"
// Also tried `import * as template from "./Hello.rt"`
export interface HelloProps {
compiler: string;
framework: string;
}
export class Hello extends React.Component<HelloProps, {}> {
render() {
return template.apply(this);
}
}
and Hello.rt:
<h1>Hello from {this.props.compiler} and {this.props.framework}!</h1>
I get the following errors:
ERROR in ./src/components/Hello.tsx
(2,22): error TS2307: Cannot find module './Hello.rt'.
ERROR in ./src/components/Hello.rt
Module parse failed: node_modules/react-templates-loader/index.js?modules=typescript!src/components/Hello.rt Unexpected token (1:13)
You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.
SyntaxError: Unexpected token (1:13)
plus a stack trace.
Is there any way to get TypeScript, react-templates, and webpack to play together? I found an example of using TypeScript with react-templates and grunt/browserify at https://github.com/bgrieder/react-templates-typescript-test, but I would rather use webpack.
