How to build and import TKO-beta as a bundled library. about tko

[ironkayman]

Hi!
Its just my guess - seems like that these are bundled yarn add @tko/build.reference and yarn add @tko/build.knockout from project readme. Basically, quoting readme:

The Knockout build has some backwards compatibility that is not in the reference build.  See the build differences, here: https://tko.io/3to4

It's available as `@tko/build.knockout`, and over CDN:

is a compatibility-oriented build, while build.reference is canonical TKO 4 beta 1.3 without further compatibilities. I'll look into it.

UPD 1: yeah, builds/reference/package.json: "name": "@tko/build.reference",

UPD 2: calling make from project root builds bundles, builds/reference/index.ts tells about unknown version of TKO, while with importing dist/index.js as ESM, ko.applyBindings does not seem work with components in inlined DOM nodes, at which bindings were applied (for a whole document in my case, by default) Right now I could advice until somebody tells otherwise to build from tags/4.0.0-alpha9 with npm i -> npm run build -> and than use/call import ko from "<...your arbitrary path...>/tko/packages/tko/dist/tko.es6.min.js" as that build works fine as up now for me (i guess). I'll look further into beta* builds.

Hi, so working with beta1.3 tag the problem seems to be in some circular deps (my guess):

ECS

Importing with anything like:

import * as ko from "tko/builds/reference/dist/index.js"
import ko from "tko/builds/reference/dist/index.js"
import tko from "tko/builds/reference/dist/index.js"

i'm getting TypeError: Class extends value undefined is not a constructor or null

browser.js

but, calling

import "tko/builds/reference/dist/browser.min.js"
// and then for compatibility
const ko = tko

does the trick

Hi! I think this issue can be closed due to #179
