How to find/debug what file(s) included given file during typescript compilation

find why was file included during typescript build

Suggestion

Be able to find out why a file was checked by TS compiler during a build.

Use Cases

Sometimes testing files gets somehow mixed into the type checking for dev/prod builds.

Examples

If a flag explain-inclusion=FLFolder.mock.ts is present:

projects/folder-listing/src/app/services/FLEntities/FLFolder.mock.ts was included, because it was requested by:

• projects/folder-listing/src/app/services/FLEntities/FLFolder.ts at (3:26)
• projects/folder-listing/src/app/services/main.service.ts (7:10)
  ... (Only first level, the developer should repeat the process as needed)

Checklist

My suggestion meets these guidelines:

• This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
• This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
• This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
• This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, etc.)
• This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.

この issue では、実装ファイル、テスト、またはコンパイラのエントリポイントが指定されていません。まず、TypeScript がファイルの取り込みをどのように決定しているか、また既存のコマンドライン診断がどのように公開されているかを追跡してください。完了とは、例で説明されている要求元ファイルとソース位置を含め、ファイルが取り込まれた理由を特定するための文書化またはテスト済みの方法があることを意味します。
