# TypeScript/JavaScript/Node/npm utilities.


# Convenient variables/macros.

# A macro to describe a dependency on an npm package.
npmdep = node_modules/$(1)/package.json

# And one for executables installed by npm.
npmbin = $(shell npm bin)/$(1)


# Install tools and dependencies from npm. We assume the dependency is listed
# in the project's package.json so `npm install` will install it.

node_modules/%/package.json:
	npm install
	touch $@


# Specific TypeScript-related tools.
