Node express + typescript 部署在 Vercel 上未构建

Question

I have upload my project with node using express + typescript. This app generates a folder dist for building but when vercel deploy my app it doesn't run the command build so what I had to do for deploy my app is build locally and upload this dist folder. Here is my vercel.json

{
    "version": 2,
    "buildCommand": "yarn build",
    "devCommand": "yarn dev",
    "outputDirectory": "dist",
    "builds": [
        {
            "src": "dist/index.js",
            "use": "@vercel/node"
        }
      ],
    "routes": [
        {
            "src": "/(.*)",
            "dest": "dist/index.js"
        }
    ]
}

Answer 1

have you provided "build":"tsc" in script tag in package.json?

   "build":"tsc",
   "start": "node dist/server.js",

However, I haven't build my express with TS app and deployed it in vercel. You have to install typescript only once in vercel in order to run expressTS app without compiling/building it.

   vercel.json
        {
          "version": 2,
            "builds": [
              {
                "src": "./server.ts",   // server.ts is in root
                "use": "@vercel/node"
              }
            ],
            "routes": [
              {
                "src": "/.*",
                "dest": "server.ts"
              }
            ]
          }

package.json

{
  "name": "server",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "MERN App",
  "main": "server.ts",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node server.ts",
    "server": "ts-node ./server.ts",
    "client": "cd ./ && npm start --prefix client",
    "dev": "concurrently \"npm run server\" \"npm run client\""
