Generating a single definition file from a external module typescript project

Question

Having a multi file typescript project, using external modules.

If I compile with

tsc -d init.ts -m "commonjs"

Then all the files of the project get their own .d.ts file. But I would like to generate one single .d.ts file for the whole project. What's the best way to go about this?

At the moment it is handled in a hacky way by : https://github.com/TypeStrong/grunt-dts-bundle

You can generate a single d.ts and a .ts and .js bundle using the npm package TsProject.

Have a look at "npm-dts" package. I think it does exactly what you need.

Also, there is a plugin for WebPack called "npm-dts-webpack-plugin".
