.tsx Webpack Compile Fails: Unexpected Token <

My app compiles with .ts, .js, and .jsx files and runs. Now I try changing a .jsx file to .tsx and it breaks.

How do I fix this compile error:

ts-loader: Using [email protected] and C:\users\ruser\Desktop\Downloads\divinote\site\tsconfig.json                                                                                                                                                    67% 226/234 build modulesModuleParseError: Module parse failed: C:\users\ruser\Desktop\Downloads\divinote\site\node_modules\ts-loader\index.js?cacheDirectory!C:\users\ruser\Desktop\Downloads\divinote\site\src\app\views\header\DiviAppBar.tsx

You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.

when I compile this code:

"use strict";
import React = require('react');
import AppBar = require('material-ui/lib/app-bar');

class DiviAppBar extends React.Component
{
    render()
    {
        return (
            <AppBar  />
        );
    }
}

export = DiviAppBar;

with this webpack config file:

'use strict';

var webpack = require('webpack');
var HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin');
var CopyWebpackPlugin = require('copy-webpack-plugin');
var path = require('path');
var rootPath = __dirname; //site
var srcPath = path.join(rootPath, 'src'); //site/src

module.exports =

        historyApiFallback: true
    },
    entry:
    {
        app: path.join(srcPath, 'app/main.jsx'),
        lib: ['react', 'react-router']
    },
    output:

        path: path.join(rootPath, 'dist'),
        publicPath: '',

        extensions: ['', '.js', '.jsx', '.ts', '.tsx'],
        modulesDirectories: ['node_modules', 'src', 'typings']
    },
    module:
    {
        loaders:
        [
            {test: /\.js$/, loader: 'babel-loader?cacheDirectory', exclude: /(node_modules|bower_components)/ },
            {test: /\.jsx$/, loader: 'babel-loader?cacheDirectory', exclude: /(node_modules|bower_components)/ },

    plugins:
    [
        new CopyWebpackPlugin
        ([
            { from: 'src/images', to: 'images' }
        ]),
        new webpack.optimize.CommonsChunkPlugin('lib', 'lib.js'),
        new HtmlWebpackPlugin
        ({
            inject: true,
            template: 'src/index.html'
        }),
        new webpack.NoErrorsPlugin()
    ]
};

and this tsconfig.json file:

{
    "compilerOptions":
    {
        "jsx": "preserve",
        "noImplicitAny": true,
        "module": "commonjs",
        "removeComments": false,
        "sourceMap": true,
        "target": "es5"
    },
    "files": [],
    "exclude":
    [
        "node_modules",
        "dist"
    ]
}

The first issue has to do with "jsx" config as mentioned by Martin. Set "jsx" to "react".

The second issue has to do with your code. Change it like this:

class DiviAppBar extends React.Component<Props, State> ...

Create an interface for your props and another one for your state. If you don't have any use empty objects.

class DiviAppBar extends React.Component<{}, {}> ...
