How to add TSLint into TFS build

Question

I would like to make a build fail if there is any error from TSLint. How I can integrate this into VSTS(TFS online) build?

Answer 1

The build step will be failed already if there are any errors from TSLint. For example:

1. Npm step/task (npm command: install; arguments: tslint typescript -g)
2. Command line step/task (Tool: tslint; Arguments: app.ts; Working folder: $(Build.SourcesDirectory)

Sample tslint.json:

{
    "defaultSeverity": "error",
   "extends": [
        "tslint:recommended"
    ],
    "jsRules": {},
    "rules": {
        "member-access": [true, "no-public"]
    },
    "rulesDirectory": []
}
