WebStorm disregards tsconfig compiler directives when working with Angular applications

My project structure was created using angular-cli, which includes a root tsconfig.json, src/tsconfig.app.json, and src/tsconfig.spec.json. Despite having the noImplicitAny and strict options enabled in the root configuration, I do not receive error notifications in my editor when I fail to specify function argument types or assign a variable typed as number to null.

Is there a way to set up WebStorm to utilize my root tsconfig.json for providing suggestions?

Below is an excerpt from my root tsconfig.json:

{
"compileOnSave": false,
"compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "./",
    "outDir": "./dist/out-tsc",
    "sourceMap": true,
    "declaration": false,
    "module": "es2015",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "target": "esnext",
    "typeRoots": [
      "node_modules/@types"
    ],
    "lib": [
      "es2017",
      "dom",
      "esnext"
    ],
    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
    "experimentalDecorators": true,

    "strict":                     true,
    "strictNullChecks":           true,
    "noUnusedLocals":             true,
    "noUnusedParameters":         true,
    "noImplicitAny":              true,
    "noImplicitThis":             true,
    "noImplicitReturns":          true,
    "noFallthroughCasesInSwitch": true
}
}

Details of my TypeScript settings in WebStorm:

Even after specifying the "files" and "include" options in tsconfig.json to point to my *.ts files, I still do not see any errors. When running tsc in my project directory, I do receive the expected error messages, but the editor does not provide any hints.

Answer №1

I successfully resolved the issue by deselecting the "Angular language service" option, which was causing a recurring error message in the TypeScript console:

Error:Initialization error (angular 2 language service). Cannot read property 'CommandTypes' of undefined

This has been identified as a bug
