Description
I just generated a new Angular project and I'm surprised to see that the boilerplate comes with a TS linting error. More specifically, it pertains to the outDir property in tsconfig.app.json:
{
"extends": "./tsconfig.json",
"compilerOptions": {
"outDir": "./out-tsc/app",
"types": []
},
"include": ["src/**/*.ts"],
"exclude": ["src/**/*.spec.ts"]
}The TS linting error text:
The common source directory of 'tsconfig.app.json' is './src'. The 'rootDir' setting must be explicitly set to this or another path to adjust your output's file layout.
Visit https://aka.ms/ts6 for migration information
If specified, .js (as well as .d.ts, .js.map, etc.) files will be emitted into this directory. The directory structure of the original source files is preserved; see rootDir if the computed root is not what you intended.
Minimal Reproduction
- Generate a new project with
ng new.
- Open
tsconfig.app.json.
- Observe the linting error.
