feat: add support for include and exclude paths in typescript configuration

[kumikumi]

Implements the TypeScript side of #182

Until TypeScript adds support for excluding files or directories from typechecking (see my comment for my use case at microsoft/TypeScript#40426 (comment) ), the best we can do is to filter out the errors in the checker plugins.

I have implemented the "exclude" and "include" options to do just that.

The VueTsc side seems similar to the regular TypeScript checker at a glance, I didn't touch it yet because I'm not using Vue. I might implement it as well if there's interest. I'd need to make a repro for that.

Based on this PR, do I conclude that this plugin was abandoned?

[danielroe]

no, this plugin is not abandoned, as you can see from checking the releases

[mbonaci]

@danielroe can this PR be merged?
IIUC, merging it would make it possible to avoid: #568

Since TS isn't keen on doing it on the tsconfig level: microsoft/TypeScript#40426 (comment)

This is my surface-level observation, so it's possible that I reached incorrect conclusions here.

[danielroe]

i don't think this would solve that.

exclude only prevents files from being included via include - it does not prevent files in node_modules from being checked if they are pulled into the project by being referenced in source files which are in the project

[mbonaci]

Am I then doing something wrong when vite-plugin-checker reports its own dependency (deep) as missing:

 ERROR(TypeScript)  Cannot find module 'stylelint' or its corresponding type declarations.

    4 | import { ConfigEnv, ErrorPayload } from 'vite';
    5 | import { VlsOptions } from './checkers/vls/initParams.js';
    6 | import 'vscode-languageserver/node';

Sorry to repost this snippet here, but I can't find my way out of this one.

BTW when I do tsc --skipLibCheck --noEmit I don't get this error.

[danielroe]

you probably want to enable skipLibCheck in your tsconfig.json or install stylelint (it's not a dependency of this plugin)

[mbonaci]

@danielroe Yeah, I'll probably end up adding skipLibCheck to my TS config, even though I wanted to avoid that, but AFAICS two of the 4 errors do come from within this plugin, even though one of them (stylelint) is declared as an optional peer dependency and the other (vscode-languageserver) as a dev dependency:
