Deploy TypeScript WebSite from GitHub to Azure

Question

I have a .NET site that contains some TypeScript files. I am trying to deploy it as an Azure site from GitHub, but I am getting a TypeScript related error message.

It seems to me that this may be due to my use of the latest version (1.0), while kudu build has only 0.9 - but I am enough for this not to be sure what the problem is and how to fix it.

Here is the deployment log (sorry for formatting):

To prevent NuGet packages from loading during build, open the Visual Studio Options dialog box, click the Package Manager node and uncheck Allow NuGet to Download Missing Packages.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Answer 1

Relevant part of the error message

The project file uses a different version of the compiler and TypeScript tools that are currently installed on this computer. The compiler was not found in D: \ Program Files (x86) \ Microsoft SDK \ TypeScript \ 1.0 \ tsc.exe. You can fix this problem by changing the item in the project file.

There is a tag in your project file:

<TypeScriptToolsVersion>1.0</TypeScriptToolsVersion> 

You will need to make this value conditional in the build environment if you have some parts of your build system at 0.9 and some at 1.0.
