Issue
So I have a Svelte
application with TypeScript enabled but now I am having an issue for running it :
[!] Error: Unexpected token (Note that you need plugins to import files that are not JavaScript)
src\api.ts (4:7)
2:
3: export default class API {
4: url:string;
^
5:
I don't understand because the app was working before, and suddenly raised this error. It seems that some versions related to TypeScript for Svelte was changed:
{
"name": "...",
"version": "...",
"private": ...,
"scripts": {
"build": "rollup -c",
"dev": "rollup -c -w",
"start": "sirv public --no-clear",
"validate": "svelte-check",
"check": "svelte-check --tsconfig ./tsconfig.json" /* + ADDED */
},
"devDependencies": {
"@rollup/plugin-commonjs": "...",
"@rollup/plugin-json": "...",
"@rollup/plugin-node-resolve": "^13.1.3",
"@rollup/plugin-typescript": "^8.0.0",
/* @smui/... stuffs */
"@tsconfig/svelte": "^2.0.0", /* ^1.0.0 -> ^2.0.0 */
"rollup": "^2.67.0",
"rollup-plugin-css-only": "^3.1.0",
"rollup-plugin-livereload": "^2.0.5",
"rollup-plugin-svelte": "^7.1.0",
"rollup-plugin-terser": "^7.0.2",
"svelte": "^3.46.3",
"svelte-check": "^2.0.0", /* ^1.0.0 -> ^2.0.0 */
"svelte-preprocess": "^4.0.0",
"tslib": "^2.0.0",
"typescript": "^4.0.0"
},
"dependencies": {
"sirv-cli": "^2.0.2",
"svelte-material-ui": "..."
}
}
/* Note: I replaced some unrelated properties/version by '...'. */
Of course executing npm install
didn't help. And if I just remove the :string
, it will throw the same error for all other :<type>
in the code.
Note that the file is named .ts
and that VSCode doesn't detect any syntax error in those files.
Config files (edit)
/* tsconfig.json */
{
"extends": "@tsconfig/svelte/tsconfig.json",
"include": ["src/**/*"],
"exclude": ["node_modules/*", "__sapper__/*", "public/*"]
}
/* rollup.config.js */
import svelte from 'rollup-plugin-svelte';
import commonjs from '@rollup/plugin-commonjs';
import json from '@rollup/plugin-json';
import resolve from '@rollup/plugin-node-resolve';
import livereload from 'rollup-plugin-livereload';
import { terser } from 'rollup-plugin-terser';
import sveltePreprocess from 'svelte-preprocess';
import typescript from '@rollup/plugin-typescript';
import css from 'rollup-plugin-css-only';
const production = !process.env.ROLLUP_WATCH;
function serve() {
let server;
function toExit() {
if (server) server.kill(0);
}
return {
writeBundle() {
if (server) return;
server = require('child_process').spawn('npm', ['run', 'start', '--', '--dev'], {
stdio: ['ignore', 'inherit', 'inherit'],
shell: true
});
process.on('SIGTERM', toExit);
process.on('exit', toExit);
}
};
}
export default {
input: 'src/main.ts',
output: {
sourcemap: true,
format: 'iife',
name: 'app',
file: 'public/build/bundle.js'
},
plugins: [
svelte({
preprocess: sveltePreprocess({ sourceMap: !production }),
compilerOptions: {
dev: !production
}
}),
css({ output: 'bundle.css' }),
resolve({
browser: true,
dedupe: ['svelte']
}),
commonjs(),
typescript({
sourceMap: !production,
inlineSources: !production
}),
json(),
!production && serve(),
!production && livereload('public'),
production && terser()
],
watch: {
clearScreen: false
}
};
No file svelte.config.js
Solution
So, I tried executing my app in a docker container, to see if it would work, and got a different error message, much more helpful:
[!] Error: Could not resolve './api.js' from src/App.js`
Indeed, the file is not named ./api.js
but ./API.ts
(forgot to change the import after renaming it to TS...)
So I changed the import like that:
/* Before (not working) */
import API from './api.js'
/* After (Good) */
import API from './API'
// NB. The filename is really in uppercase for me
TL;DR
- Check your import for any
import x from file.js
which should be a TS file and replace them byimport x from file
(you should not write the.ts
extension)
Explanation:
It is trying to import a JavaScript (.js
) file, but find the TypeScript file (.ts
) and import it instead (seems like it only cares about the "basename"), but without the TypeScript Support, creating this weird situation where it doesn't reconize TypeScript Syntax inside a .ts
file.
