Upgrading from TSDX 0.10 to 0.12 increases size by 0.12MB

[daraclare]

Current Behavior

This may not be a bug, if not, I apologise, but maybe documentation around this would be useful.

After updating our package from version 0.10.x to version 0.12.x of TSDX, I noticed an increase of 0.12MB in our unpacked size in the NPM registry. I realise this maybe because of the addition of our components folder, I assume this enables importing of individual components. How would we use this to our benefit, and is there a flag to turn this off if we decide not to use it?

PACKAGE DETAILS @ TSDX v0.12.x

PACKAGE DETAILS @ TSDX v0.10.x

NOTE: we reverted the change to see if any other package had been bumped to a minor version which may have affected the change and the resulting package size was 0.01MB difference.

Expected behavior

Although I wasn't expected it, this may be expected behaviour. Is there anything we should do to mitigate or improve this.

Suggested solution(s)

Documentation on this might be useful, happy to help if I can.

I think you mixed up the headings for your images (first one says 1.93MB on 0.10 and second says 1.81MB on 0.12).

Per the changelog, 0.10 tried to use @wessberg/rollup-plugin-ts, which turned out to be buggy, and 0.11 rolled that back to use rollup-plugin-typescript2.
Can't tell exactly without seeing the actual files, but based on your description the difference is probably that all versions other than 0.10 produce type definitions (.d.ts) on a per file basis, whereas @wessberg/rollup-plugin-ts tries to bundle and treeshake them into one file (which tsc doesn't even do), but is unfortunately buggy.

@jaredpalmer think it would be good to deprecate the entire 0.10.x line due the bugs in it to avoid further confusion.

Agree

I have just deprecated all 0.10.x releases with the following message:

TypeScript compilation is broken in 0.10.x releases. Please upgrade TSDX >= 0.11.x
