Functions and values

Function or value	Description
`entryFile packageDir` Full Usage: `entryFile packageDir` Parameters: packageDir : `string` Returns: `string`	The package's declaration entry: `types`/`typings` from the manifest, then the first `types` string anywhere under `exports` (conditions nest arbitrarily, so this walks), then `index.d.ts` as npm's own fallback. packageDir : `string` Returns: `string`
`packageName packageDir` Full Usage: `packageName packageDir` Parameters: packageDir : `string` Returns: `string`	The manifest's `name`, or the directory name when the manifest lacks one. packageDir : `string` Returns: `string`
`start config packageDir` Full Usage: `start config packageDir` Parameters: config : `GeneratorConfig` packageDir : `string` Returns: `Async<TscMailbox * Context>`	Starts a run's compiler session. The caller owns the returned mailbox and must dispose it - a leaked mailbox leaks a `tsc` process. config : `GeneratorConfig` packageDir : `string` Returns: `Async<TscMailbox * Context>`
