TypeScript Support

[fede071]

My company needs a cross-platform installer for multiple applications written in TypeScript. Is TypeScript among the languages supported by InstallBuilder installers? I could not find a complete list of the supported languages.

Thank you in advance

There is an area for InstallBuilder, a moderator should move your thread there now I have reported it.

Sorry and thank you for pointing that out!

Hi @fede071,

With InstallBuilder you can pack and unpack any type of application and run any commands during the installation using the <runProgram> action. If you need to run a script written in typescript you would also need to pack an interpreter:

<runProgram>
    <program>ts-node</program>
    <programArguments>typescript-file.ts</programArguments>
    <workingDirectory>${installdir}/bin</workingDirectory>
</runProgram>

Would that work for you?

Regards,

Michiel

I think that is going to work for us!
