javascript - Sane approach to build and deploy typescript/node.js application -

-

i'm working on node.js app written in typescript, means needs compiled js before running. i'm coming java/jvm background ship prebuilt package server , gets run there i'm bit afraid of way of deployment push code git , it's being built/compiled on server first , run.

i don't 2 main reasons:

  • dev dependencies need installed on server
  • deployment depends on external resources availability (npm etc).

i found nar https://github.com/h2non/nar more or less wanted has drawbacks (doesn't work deps have native extensions).

my question is: there other "sane" way of doing deployment node.js deployment risky combination of npm install , tsc on server? or should let sink in , way?

to honest don't believe there no more sane/reliable options that.

what can (but there other valid approaches) building project locally (or on ci service), , deploy built version when consider valid (tests, etc.).

this way, if bad happens, npm fails, or compilation error, don't deploy anything, , have time resolve situation.

for example, used have gulp task (but can else: grunt, simple npm script...) clone production repository , build project directory.

that way, can check build valid. if is, make new commit , push production repo, served way need (on heroku instance example).

pros

  • clear separation of dev , non-dev dependencies
  • deployment when know build valid
  • no built files on source control on development repository
  • no "live" dependency on external tasks npm install or tsc build

cons

  • you have 2 separated git repositories (one source code, 1 built version of project)
  • production process little bit heavier committing master
  • (from comment) doesn't handle case of npm package relies on native extensions have (re)built
