Override `isExternalLibraryImport` as needed; re-add `realpath` #970

cspotcode · 2020-03-02T16:27:26Z

The various realpath issues we've seen don't strictly relate to symlinks.

They're caused by TypeScript considering a file to be an "external library import" when it's nested within a node_modules directory, and refusing to emit .js for it. Sometimes a symlink's path does not include node_modules and its resolved path does, or vice versa, so enabling or disabling realpath causes or fixes this bug.

The "external library import" determination is handled by the module resolver. If we implement our own in the LanguageServiceHost, we can tell the compiler to consider all rootFileNames to be "internal" no matter what.

This lets us re-enable realpath.

Notes for code review

It's been a while since I started this PR, and I've since learned more about the compiler.

rootFiles are always emitted, but we want to avoid modifying rootFiles as much as possible, because it throws away a bunch of compiler state. How much, precisely, I'm not sure, but modify rootFiles is way slower than leaving it as-is rootFiles.

This PR hooks into TypeScript's resolver and does 2x things:
(a) forces some modules to be classified internal using our own logic, overriding TypeScript's logic
(b) keeps track of modules that have already been classified as internal

(a) enables compiling files nested within ./node_modules
(b) allows us to avoid modifying rootFiles unnecessary

TS files in node_modules are always forced to be internal, because I can't see any downsides to this.
JS files in node_modules are only forced internal on-demand (when required), because the "internal/external" distinction affects maxNodeModuleJsDepth, which affects typechecking.

Old, irrelevant notes

I hate deleting old research in case I need it later, but stuff below this line is not relevant anymore.

Gotchas / notes

(this is not true anymore) Implementation overrides isExternalLibraryImport according to our ignored() logic, which is the "nuclear option" described here:
microsoft/TypeScript#28432 (comment)
There's another option: node_modules nested within the rootDir are excluded, but if rootDir has node_modules in its own path, it is still compiled.

Implement resolveModuleNames that forces modules to be considered internal (not from an external library) when we need them to be emitted

Of note, TS has itself a bug with workspaces being marked as external sources (cf microsoft/TypeScript#37270). Maybe the isExternalLibraryImport override here could workaround that as well?

…t-node_modules-files

cspotcode · 2020-07-30T04:47:21Z

https://github.com/TypeStrong/ts-node/blob/master/src/index.ts#L688-L710

I noticed some weirdness in the compilerHost codepath which I'll need to fix. Don't have time now, so I'm jotting it down.

The bug is: rootFileNames are updated and the program rebuilt only when the builder program doesn't already have a sourcefile for the require()d module.

The problem is that a sourcefile might exist, but it might be considered "external." When this happens, typescript refuses to emit .js for it. We can force TS to emit .js by adding the file to rootFileNames. Unfortunately this is slow because it triggers a program rebuild that should not otherwise be necessary.

If we mark all non-ignored files as "internal", this problem goes away. Alternatively, we keep track of which files are classified "external" and we add them to rootFileNames only when we must force a reclassification "tointernal."

cspotcode · 2020-07-30T04:53:29Z

Importantly, we must ensure that tests properly trigger all possible patterns for a file being classified external, being omitted from rootFileNames, being unknown to the compiler, etc.

require() outside the typechecker
import from node_modules
something in node_modules import something else in node_modules (the latter is classified external b/c is not in rootFileNames)

@blakeembrey this is finally(!!) done, tested, and ready for a review. I added my own review comments to hopefully make the changes clearer.

cspotcode · 2020-08-15T18:57:13Z

@blakeembrey Despite the red X, tests are passing. The only failure is coverage, and I think that's only because compiler docs ask us to implement a function that the compiler never actually calls.

If you think you'll be busy for the next week, and if this sounds ok to you, I was thinking of asking for a code review on the TypeScript Discord. Compiler experts hang out there, so I think I'd be able to find a reviewer with the right skillset.

This seems dangerous, shouldn't case sensitivity be determined based on the OS, or potentially the forceConsistentCasingInFileNames option?

Fair question. ts.sys.useCaseSensitiveFileNames is OS-dependent: true on Posix, false on Windows. As far as I can tell, createGetCanonicalFileName is how the compiler internally converts filenames to cache keys.

As far as I know, forceConsistentCasingInFileNames generates additional semantic diagnostics but doesn't affect resolver behavior. Even when forceConsistentCasingInFileNames is turned off, FOO.ts and foo.ts still resolve to the same file on Windows, right?

Ah, that makes sense. I was reading useCaseSensitiveFileNames as if there was another useCaseInsensitiveFileNames option, which it makes sense that there isn't. This should be fine then.

What about namespaced @ node modules?

Ooh, good catch. I'll add logic for this. I should also add a test with 2x peer modules, @org/foo and @org/bar, and make sure one bucket doesn't affect the other.
