TSServer Crash

[justinbhopper]

I'm not at all totally sure what the root of the issue was, but I believe a recent update to TSServer caused crashing in our code when using zerollup. The tsserver logs seemed to be blowing up about the missing name.

I resolved the issue by adding a name property to the plugins entry in my tsconfig.json. I'm posting here in case anyone else runs into this issue.

tsconfig.json before:

{
  ...
  "plugins": [{ "transform": "@zerollup/ts-transform-paths" }],
}

tsconfig.json after:

{
  ...
  "plugins": [{ "name": "zerollup", "transform": "@zerollup/ts-transform-paths" }],
}

Here is a snippet of my tsserver logs in case this helps give context:
