*/
import * as childProcess from 'child_process';
export function buildAngularProject(): void {
// Define the command to be executed
const command = [
'ng',
'build',
'--prod',
'--aot',
];
// Use childProcess to execute the command in the context of the project
childProcess.exec(command.join(' '), (error) => {
if (error) {
console.error(`Error building the Angular project: ${error}`);
} else {
console.log('Angular project built successfully');
}
});
}
// Alternatively, you can use the npm run command to run the build script
export function runBuildScript(): void {
// Define the command to be executed
const command = ['npm', 'run', 'ng:build'];
// Use childProcess to execute the command in the context of the project
childProcess.exec(command.join(' '), (error) => {
if (error) {
console.error(`Error running build script: ${error}`);
} else {
console.log('Build script executed successfully');
}
});
}
```
You can call these functions as follows:
```typescript
buildAngularProject();
// or
runBuildScript();
