## How to use npmts
### Install
First install npmts as dev dependency:
```sh
npm install npmts --save-dev
```
Then use it in package.json's script section to trigger a build:
```json
"scripts": {
"test": "npmts"
}
```
### Default behaviour
2016-01-18 14:15:15 +00:00
by default npmts looks for `./ts/index.ts` and `./ts/test.ts` that will compile to

`./index.js` and `./test.js`

#### Declaration files
**npmts** also creates an `index.d.ts` declaration file by default.
2016-01-18 14:20:23 +00:00
You can reference it in your package.json like this:
```json
"main": "index.js",
"typings": "./index.d.ts",
```
When requiring the module from other TypeScript files,
the TypeScript Compiler will use the declaration file to resolve typings.

### Custom behaviour
2016-02-04 19:41:34 +00:00
NPMTS looks for an npmts.json at the root of your package.
```json
{
"mode":"custom",
"ts":{
"./customdir/custom.ts":"./customcompiled.js"
},
"typings":[
"./customdir"
]
}
```
* **mode** can be "default" or "custom"
* **ts** You can list as many TypeScript files as you like. The key represents the source TypeScript file, the value the output file.
* **typings** is an array of all direcories that have a typings.json present. Uses the new typings tool from npm.
