Linguist: TypeScript file is being JavaScript.

[gluons]

Some .ts file is treated as JavaScript file.

[pchaigno]

Oo, you can interpret TypeScript with the Node interpreter??

[gluons]

@pchaigno Did you mean that this file can run directly by Node? If you mean that, I think it can't.

This file contains some variable type declaration that isn't valid JavaScript.

[pchaigno]

Hm. So this file is detected as JavaScript because of the shebang on the first line.

[gluons]

Haha. shebang make this file to be detected as JavaScript. 🤣

Oo, you can interpret TypeScript with the Node interpreter??

@pchaigno Relevant issue at file-icons which has an explanation:

No, it cannot [execute], but the shebang string gets propagated from the TS source to the JS compiled with tsc. If I omit it in the source, it won't appear in the output JS.

This isn't something Linguist currently accommodates, AFAIK. 😕

[pchaigno]

Thanks for the explanation @Alhadis!

@gluons You can override the language detected using Linguist overrides.

[gluons]

@pchaigno OK. I'll try. Thank you.
