resolveJsonModule not working

[jpike88]

I get this error when turning on resolveJsonModule:

/Users/Me/Project/angularHelpers.ts (4,26) (Error:TS2307) Cannot find module './en-AU.json'

Can you confirm whether resolveJsonModule works for you at all?

Using TS 2.9.1, VSCode actually reports it as fine, and tsc has a weirder issue going on:

microsoft/TypeScript#24743

UPDATE: the weirder issue seems to be deliberate...

microsoft/TypeScript#24715

Thanks

error in studio, just to see that it works

Error typescript produces:

Option error goes away if I add the outDir

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "module": "commonjs",
    "outDir": "",
    "resolveJsonModule": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true
  },
  "exclude": [
    "node_modules"
  ]
}

Update, tried to read more about this
It says here it will try and copy over the to files to output, so warning is kinda correct... maybe

@jpike88
How did this turn out ?

[jpike88]

I think you're right, I'm going to close this for now and avoid it as it's a bit of an edge case anyway.

This issue I'm following in TS, if that is implemented that would probably be what I'd use instead anyhow

microsoft/TypeScript#24744

I think we should build in exemptions to omit this error. The problem is that outDir shouldn't need a value for this to do its job, which is just to check types. Files being written/not written shouldn't be a factor here.

[vegarringdal]

yes, we could add a option to skip ts errors, as a option.

[vegarringdal]

@jpike88
skipTsErrors?: number[];// skip ts errors to options

Can test it here:
fuse-box-typechecker@2.10.0-next.7

Tell me how it works out for you

this solves the issue. eagerly awaiting release :D
