error TS2583: Cannot find name ‘WeakMap’. Do you need to change your target library? Try changing the lib compiler option to es2015 or later.

problem

test.ts中包含使用 WeakMap,
执行tsc test.ts 时报错：

error TS2583: Cannot find name 'WeakMap'. Do you need to change your target library? Try changing the `lib` compiler option to es2015 or later.  

reason

原因是 WeakMap 是 es6 的语法

solution

在命令行显示加上 lib
tsc --lib "es2015","dom" test.ts
