Script

From the Deno section of the Getting Started docs.

  • build.ts
      import * as esbuild from 'https://deno.land/x/esbuild@v0.11.17/mod.js'
    
      const ts = 'let test: boolean = true'
      const result = await esbuild.transform(ts, { loader: 'ts' })
    
      console.log('result:', result)
    
      esbuild.stop()
    

Then run your script in the CLI.

CLI

Note that the CLI tool is not available for use as a Deno package.

But you can install a binary using cURL and then use the package in the CLI, without needing Node or NPM.

See the Install page’s section on Download a binary.
