Custom tsconfig path

[Akany]

Is it possible to set plugin path to tsconfig ?

[DanielRosenwasser]

Whoops, misread the issue - what exactly do you mean?

[Akany]

Im using angular cli app. It adds tsconfig in src folder - not in root.
Plugin doesnt see tsconfig.

@alexeagle is there a configuration to that can help move the tsconfig.json higher?

[alexeagle]

No, I believe the layout is fixed. But why is the plugin only looking in the root dir? Many projects keep their tsconfig.json under a src directory. I think this is a good idea, then you have a separate test/tsconfig.json since settings and deps are often different.

Agreed with Alex. There are many reasons why having multiple tsconfig spread through a project is a good idea.

In my case, I desire a separate tsconfig.json file for my npm prepublish command, which would allow me to transpile source files only (not test files) into a ./dist dir with definitions, but not sourcemaps.

Is this issue still not yet solved?

https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript-Sublime-Plugin/blob/26bb7c57a31fc1b62bfc50e8ec652f7ef3f49ff1/typescript/commands/build.py#L22 passes project directory as a -p argument to tsc command, so it looks only for default tsconfig.json filename. Would be very helpful to allow different file, or even have different configs per folder in project.

This is an issue for me in my Angular project because while I want to allow es6 in my test spec files I don't want that in my actual app. Angular supports this natively by having one tsconfig file for spec and another for the app. Would be nice if I could configure this plugin to support that.

Any updates on this one?

I've got the same issue.

Wow I wish I saw this issue before messing around. This makes TS development untenable aside from the most basic of scenarios.
