Visual Studio 2012：将更多TypeScript文件编译为一个JavaScript文件

Question

Is it possible to set a "compiler" option to compile more TypeScript files in one project to one JavaScript file? The only solution I can find is passing multiple files to the "tsc" manually by hand, but I'd like to use the features of the IDE Visual Studio 2012.

I am using bundling to do this in ASP.NET. You can use bundling with MVC or Web Forms.

If you are using Web Essentials, you will already be getting both a .js and a .min.js and bundling is clever enough to use the .js files at debug time and the minified versions in production - so you can debug easily but get smaller files in live.

You can read all about Bundling and Minification on the ASP.NET site .

However, if you want TypeScript to bundle the file (it won't minify it) you just need to use the following flag:

tsc --out combined.js app.ts

TypeScript will walk the dependencies and sort out the ordering for you so all you need to worry about is minifying the combined file.
