V7 transports and Typescript, part 2

[astanciu]

I was just reading through #1243 and I think this issue needs to be reopened. Now that node supports .ts files natively, using v7 transports throws Error: Cannot find module 'ts-node/register', because ts-node is obviously not needed/installed.

Thanks for reporting!

Can you provide steps to reproduce? We often need a reproducible example, e.g. some code that allows someone else to recreate your problem by just copying and pasting it. If it involves more than a couple of different file, create a new repository on GitHub and add a link to that.

Long term this is a non-problem, as Native ts support in Node.js will cover this easily.

I guess you're talking about
https://nodejs.org/api/typescript.html

which is experimental in v24, I think forcing users to be on the latest is not a good idea
But I agree, having that ts-node error is kinda frustrating, at least the doc could talk about it or allow custom import function to pass in, to elimiate the extra deps
