bundling worker: "TypeError: Cannot read property 'newLine' of undefined"

[m-abs]

I'm trying to bundle a worker in our project, but I keep getting this error:

    ERROR in ../~/nativescript-dev-webpack/tns-aot-loader.js!../~/@ngtools/webpack/src!./worker.ts
    Module build failed: TypeError: Cannot read property 'newLine' of undefined
        at Object.getNewLineCharacter (/home/mabs/project/ns-debugging/bundle-worker/node_modules/typescript/lib/typescript.js:9426:20)
        at Object.createCompilerHost (/home/mabs/project/ns-debugging/bundle-worker/node_modules/typescript/lib/typescript.js:62475:26)
        at Object.ngcLoader (/home/mabs/project/ns-debugging/bundle-worker/node_modules/@ngtools/webpack/src/loader.js:338:33)

I've created a demo project here:

It's a very simple worker as you can see here: https://github.com/m-abs/ns-debugging/blob/master/bundle-worker/app/worker.ts

I'm using @triniwiz's worker-loader and test for global.TNS_WEBPACK as suggested in #86 (comment)
Like this: https://github.com/m-abs/ns-debugging/blob/master/bundle-worker/app/app.module.ts#L32-L48

What am I doing wrong?

Update:
If I transpile the worker's TS to JS myself, the worker runs as expected.
But resulting [hash].worker.js is rather large after I had to import 'global' but it's progress. 👍

I think it would be better if I could get webpack to transpile my worker.ts file for me.
Is this possible?

any workarounds? I'm getting this issue too

[m-abs]

Only the one I mentioned :)

If you use nativescript-dev-typescript you might be able to get that to transpile it by running tns prepare android or tns prepare ios before running the bundle process.

[hypery2k]

doesn't for me with TNS3

[m-abs]

What if you require the worker from vendor.ts?
