Use this to load modules whose location is specified in the paths section of
tsconfig.json.

## Install

```sh
yarn add ts-transform-paths -D
```

## Requirement

ts-transform-paths^2.0.0 for TypeScript^2.0.0 or TypeScript^3.0.0
ts-transform-paths^3.0.0 for TypeScript^4.0.0

## How to use

Unfortunately, TypeScript itself does not currently provide any easy way to use
custom transformers (See https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/14419).
The followings are the example usage of the custom transformer.

### tsconfig.json

```json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "paths": {
      "@schema": ["./src/schema"],
      "@modules/*": ["./src/modules/*"]
    }
  }
}
```

### webpack (with ts-loader or awesome-typescript-loader)

```js
// webpack.config.js
const pathsTransformer = require("ts-transform-paths").default;

module.exports = {
  // ...
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.ts$/,
        loader: "ts-loader", // or 'awesome-typescript-loader'
        options: {
          getCustomTransformers: (program) => pathsTransformer()
        }
      }
    ]
  }
};
```

### Rollup (with rollup-plugin-typescript2)

```js
// rollup.config.js
import typescript from "rollup-plugin-typescript2";
import pathsTransformer from "ts-transform-paths";

export default {
  // ...
  plugins: [
    typescript({
      transformers: [
        (service) => pathsTransformer()
      ]
    })
  ]
};
```

### ttypescript

See
[ttypescript's README](https://github.com/cevek/ttypescript/blob/master/README.md)
for how to use this with module bundlers such as webpack or Rollup.

```json
// tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    // ...
    "plugins": [{ "transform": "ts-transform-paths" }]
  }
  // ...
}
```

### ts-node

```ts
// my-ts-script.ts
import { MyClass } from "@schema";

const myClass = new MyClass("Message");
```

```js
// index.js
const pathsTransformer = require("ts-transform-paths").default;

require("ts-node").register({
  transformers: pathsTransformer()
});

require("./my-ts-script");
```

```sh
yarn node ./index.js
```
