[email protected] doesn't have newLine compiler option

[yoav-zibin]

The newLine option is documented here:
https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/wiki/Compiler-Options

--newLine Use the specified end of line sequence to be used when emitting files: 'CRLF' (dos) or 'LF' (unix)."

I have this line in my tsconfig.json:
{
"compilerOptions": {
"target": "es5",
"module": "commonjs",
"declaration": false,
"noImplicitAny": true,
"suppressImplicitAnyIndexErrors": false,
"removeComments": false,
"rootDir": ".",
"outDir": "ts_output_readonly_do_NOT_change_manually/",
"sourceMap": false,
"noLib": false,
"newLine": "CRLF"
},

But when I run tsc it complains about Unknown compiler option 'newLine'

yzibin-macbookpro2:multiplayer-games-web yzibin$ npm install typescript --save-dev
[email protected] node_modules/typescript
yzibin-macbookpro2:multiplayer-games-web yzibin$ tsc
error TS5023: Unknown compiler option 'newLine'.
yzibin-macbookpro2:multiplayer-games-web yzibin$ tsc --newLine CRLF
error TS5023: Unknown compiler option 'newline'.
yzibin-macbookpro2:multiplayer-games-web yzibin$ tsc --version

Ok, it was a version issue :)

I got confused between typescript and tsc.

And I had different versions of tsc installed (locally and globally):
yzibin-macbookpro2:multiplayer-games-web yzibin$ ./node_modules/tsc/bin/tsc -version
message TS6029: Version 1.5.3
yzibin-macbookpro2:multiplayer-games-web yzibin$ tsc -version
message TS6029: Version 1.5.0-beta

I did
sudo npm install tsc -g
which solved the problem !

@yoav-zibin tsc isn't the right package either (it's https://www.npmjs.com/package/tsc), it should probably have been npm install -g typescript.

Thanks! Now I finally have the correct version:
yzibin-macbookpro2:multiplayer-games-web yzibin$ tsc --version
message TS6029: Version 1.7.3

It's interesting the other project (tsc) got formed in order to give stable APIs.
It's pretty far behind: message TS6029: Version 1.5.3
I guess in the past you made incompatible changes a lot.
Thanks again :)
