Is componentsScan deprecated or not?

[borjapazr]

As I see in the documentation componentsScan seems to be deprecated. However, reviewing other parts of the documentation it appears exposed as a functionality that can be used, even in the examples on GitHub there are references to this functionality. Is componentsScan deprecated or not? In case its use is not recommended, what alternatives are there if we have a set of components that are not imported explicitly in another components and we want them to be detected by the TSED dependency container?

Hello @borjapazr

Here is the complete answers :)
https://v7.tsed.io/getting-started/migration-from-v6.html#components-scan

Ts.ED don't need Components Scan to works. Components Scan is just a feature that simplify the development process.
It can be replaced by barrelsby (tooling) or manual ES6 import.

Using ES6 import:

import {MyService} from "./MyService"; // if the symbole is used
import "./MyService"; // if the symbole isn't used but you have use it because you use hooks

See you

Great! Very good answer @Romakita 😊

So from v7 componentsScan will no longer be available inside @Configuration and mount can no longer be used with globs, right?

I think it's perfect to use barrelsby. I'm already using barrel files, so the upgrade won't be too dramatic.

Thank you! 🙏

Mount option will only accept Symbols and not a globpattern. componentsScan will be removed ;)

If you appreciated the support, know that it is free and is carried out on personal time ;)

A support, even a little bit makes a difference for me and continues to bring you answers!
