"module" option doesn't do anything about plugin-typescript HOT 6 CLOSED

Both the built in typescript compiler and this plugin will always produce "system" format as that is what is used by SystemJS. This compiler option is ignored.

Thanks for the quick response. Is there any hope to add support for this?

from plugin-typescript.

If you can give me a valid use case for setting it to anything other than "system" then I will consider it...

I am building a framework on top of TypeScript and Angular, generated output should contain of:

• plain es5 module
• commonjs module
• systemjs module

That's why I need it so bad... And not only me, I believe. Thank you once more.

from plugin-typescript.

You can get buildSFX to produce other formats using

builder.buildSFX('myModule.js', 'outfile.js', { sfxFormat: 'cjs' });

See here https://github.com/systemjs/builder#sfx-format. But the output of this plugin will still be "system", systemJS will just expose the entry point of the bundle as a commonJS module.

Otherwise it sounds like you may be better to just use the TypeScript compiler directly instead of bundling with systemJS?

from plugin-typescript.

I've tried that option and still ended up with SystemJS kind of commonjs module.

It's very pity SystemJS can't do it, would be so nice to let one tool taking care of all problems.
