Angular-cli: Visual Studio Unknown Compiler Option 'typeRoots'.

Created on 20 Sep 2016  路  4Comments  路  Source: angular/angular-cli

angular-cli: 1.0.0-beta.15
node: 4.5.0
os: win32 x64

I've created a angular-cli project in an existing .NET Project. I have TypeScript Version 2.0.2 globally installed as well as Visual Studio Extension TypeScript 2.0.2 Beta.

I can't build the project (only in Visual Studio. Build via cli works perfectly) because of a debug error "Build:Unknown compiler option 'typeRoots'."

I googled so much but I could not really find anything relative.

This is not a CLI issue.

Check the .csproj file in a text editor. Look for the word typescript and see the typescript version stored in that.

Also, in VS Tools -> Options, go to Projects and Solutions -> External Web Tools. and uncheck anything that starts with $(VSINSTALLDIR).

"emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
"experimentalDecorators": true,
"lib": [ "es6", "dom" ],
"mapRoot": "./",
"module": "es6",
"moduleResolution": "node",
"outDir": "../dist/out-tsc",
"sourceMap": true,
"target": "es5",
"typeRoots": [
"../node_modules/@types"
],
"types": [
"jasmine"

}
}
and Typescript version is 2.1.0
Node version is 7.0.0
