Emacs: Compile TypeScript File 🚀

Here's a emacs command that compiles the current TypeScript file.

(defvar xah-typescript-compiler
 "tsc"
 "Name or path of TypeScript compiler.
Typically it's \"tsc\".
Used by `xah-typescript-compile-file'.")

(defvar xah-typescript-default-options
"--target ES2017 --alwaysStrict"
 "Default options for TypeScript compiler.
e.g. “--target ES2017 --alwaysStrict”.
Used by `xah-typescript-compile-file'.")

(defun xah-typescript-compile-file ()
  "Compile the current file.
The file name must end in “.ts” or “.tsx”.
If the file is modified, save it automatically before run.
Depends on `xah-typescript-compiler', `xah-typescript-default-options'.
