Fix empty output for source-linked pnpm workspace packages in the normal Angular compiler. When TypeScript skips an external-classified source requested by Vite, promote that source to a compilation root and retry the normal Angular emit.

PR Checklist

Closes #2507.

Affected scope

  • Primary scope: vite-plugin-angular
  • Secondary scopes: none

Commit preservation note [optional]

No commit boundaries need preservation.

What is the new behavior?

A pnpm workspace library exporting a TypeScript barrel now builds with angular() without requiring a manual include glob. TypeScript previously classified the real linked source as external and skipped its emit, so Vite received an empty module and reported missing exports.

The retry only applies to an empty result whose source TypeScript identifies as external. Roots are deduplicated and retained for incremental recompilation; tsconfig change/add/unlink events clear the discovered roots, and unlinking a promoted source removes its root and cached output. Emission continues through Angular's existing serialized compilation path and its transformers. Existing node_modules filters, fastCompile, explicit includes, and missing-file fallbacks are unchanged.

Test plan

  • Frozen dependency installation, pnpm 11.6.0 on Node 24.15.0.
  • New real-compiler regression fails before the fix with an empty linked barrel.
  • pnpm nx test vite-plugin-angular — 721 passed, 6 existing skips.
  • pnpm nx build vite-plugin-angular — passed.
  • Packed the built plugin and installed it in the reporter's reproduction. pnpm run build now passes: 245 modules on Angular 21.2.22, TypeScript 5.9.3, and Vite 8.2.2, with no include workaround. The original dependency reproduced the missing DemoDirective export.
  • Prettier on changed files and git diff --check.

The regression uses an actual symlinked package with a TypeScript export, checks both its barrel and compiled Angular directive, repeats the barrel transform, verifies an edit to the directive survives incremental recompilation, then unlinks the barrel and checks that the next compilation cannot return stale output. The unlink regression also fails against the implementation before the cleanup fix.

Does this PR introduce a breaking change?

  • Yes
  • No

Other information

Targets beta. analogjs/analog#2520 refactors alpha's compiler roots but does not address TypeScript's external-source emit classification. This fix should be adapted to that refactor when ported to alpha; no changes are made to its branch here.

[optional] What gif best describes this PR or how it makes you feel?

Not applicable.

Promote requested external TypeScript sources before retrying Angular emit.

Closes analogjs#2507

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Angular Vite plugin now classifies workspace-linked TypeScript files as non-external libraries and clears caches when files are unlinked. It adds compilation teardown, optional stylesheet transformation, Vite-controlled production source maps, and normalized source paths. Tests cover linked packages, build and serve modes, JIT and AOT compilation, source maps, cleanup, and missing environment compatibility.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b1a20

This change restores emission for linked workspace packages, but compatibility with older supported TypeScript resolution behavior remains unresolved and could affect package builds.

Explanation

The PR includes changes that appear broader than issue [#2507], including source-map emission behavior, CSS preprocessor worker release, optional style-transform fallback, environment compatibility handling, and general compilation teardown. These changes are not directly required to fix empty output for source-linked workspace packages.

Important

At least one additional CI pipeline execution has run since the conclusion below was written and it may no longer be applicable.

Nx Cloud has identified a possible root cause for your failed CI:

We were unable to attribute this failure to the PR's code changes. The top-bar:test task fails because the compiled @analogjs/vite-plugin-angular artifact (index.js) is absent from node_modules, which is a CI environment/build-ordering issue rather than a regression introduced by the diff. Re-running the pipeline after ensuring vite-plugin-angular is built first should resolve this.

No code changes were suggested for this issue.

You can trigger a rerun by pushing an empty commit:

git commit --allow-empty -m "chore: trigger rerun"
git push

…output

The previous top-bar:test job could not resolve the compiler package before
its build output was available. The same target passes locally with the
built package. Retry the unchanged tree once.
Comment thread packages/vite-plugin-angular/src/lib/angular-vite-plugin.ts Outdated
Classify workspace TypeScript sources during module resolution instead of
rebuilding the Angular program for each newly requested linked module.
Retain TypeScript's cache and per-import resolution mode.

Cover AOT/JIT build and serve paths, concurrent transforms, incremental
edits, external-package boundaries, and removed sources. The AOT fixture
creates one program instead of ten.
