Accessors are only available when targeting ECMAScript 5 and higher

Question

I am trying to run this code but it is giving me following errors:

Animal.ts(10,13): error TS1056: Accessors are only available when targeting ECMAS

Answer 1

I was having the same problem. What I read from the docs is that the tsconfig.json file is ignored if you specify the files.

My tsconfig.json file

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es5"
  },
  "include": [
    "*.ts"
  ]
}

And I run it from command line

tsc && node *.js
