Use tsx to avoid loader deprecation

[drernie]

(node:32333) ExperimentalWarning: --experimental-loader may be removed in the future; instead use register():
--import 'data:text/javascript,import { register } from "node:module"; import { pathToFileURL } from "node:url"; register("ts-node/esm", pathToFileURL("./"));'
(Use node --trace-warnings ... to show where the warning was created)

As the warning suggests, you should replace the --loader ts-node/esm flag with the one suggested in the warning, and the warning will disappear. FWIW there's an open issue on the ts-node repo to allow users to use a simpler syntax: TypeStrong/ts-node#2072

To make the command more ergonomic, create a file that registers module resolution hooks. Let’s name the file register.js.

import { register } from 'node:module';
import { pathToFileURL } from 'node:url';

register('ts-node/esm', pathToFileURL('./'));

Then use the --import flag to import the file.

NODE_OPTIONS="--import=./register.js" npx webpack configtest

Add to npm

"scripts": {
        "dev": "nodemon --watch src --ext ts --exec \"tsc --noemit && node --import=./src/dev/register.js src/app.ts\"",
}

if this benefits others, i advise to try tsx instead of ts-node. Either run directly tsx file.ts or with '--import', 'tsx' arguments.
