Package tsx library into executable

I want to package the typescript-runner tsx into an executable so that it is not dependent on nodejs or npm to be ran. How is this possible? I wanted to use vercel/pkg but it seems to have problems with the esm syntax.

you could use nexe

nexe server.js -r "public/**/*.html"

For more CLI options see: nexe --help

Motivation and Features

  • Self contained applications
  • Ability to run multiple applications with different node.js runtimes.
  • Distribute binaries without needing node / npm.
  • Idempotent builds
  • Start and deploy faster.
  • Lockdown specific application versions, and easily rollback.
  • Flexible build pipeline
  • Cross platform builds

Or if you are familiar with docker, you could create a container of your tsx-runner project along with other containers, you could manage the multi container system with docker-compose
