Cannot use with ts-node transpile-only

See issue: TypeStrong/ts-node#1051

It is possible to use transformers with ts-node via the register method demonstrated in that issue.

I just don't want to use another transformer tool to support ts-node --transpile-only.
Can this problem solved by patch typescript? @nonara

At the moment, tsp does not natively patch the method used by ts-node. I will look at adding some sort of support for ts-node in v2.

That said, you don't need another tool to make it work. If you read the thread I posted, they give an example of supplying ts-node with your transformers, so you can make it work with or without patched typescript.

I should point out that most transformer packages for tsp or ttypescript require the type checker, so they will not work with transpile-only. The ones which take a raw signature should work, however.

You can try the one you like to find out. Just provide ts-node with your configuration like they do in the example I posted.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for your explanation!
I use a transformer @zerollup/ts-transform-paths which handles ts path mapping, I guess it doesn't need type checking.

Finally I use ts-node -T -r tsconfig-paths/register for develop, which doesn't need extra config or code.
