Bazel - ERROR: missing input file '//server:files/src/index.js'

Question

I want to compile some Typescript files and create a Node.js Image from the compiled Javascript files. It works fine when I have only one Typescript file with this BUILD file:

load("@io_bazel_rules_docker//nodejs:image.bzl", "nodejs_image")
load("@npm_bazel_typescript//:index.bzl", "ts_library")

ts_library(
    name = "compile",
    srcs = ["src/index.ts"],
)

filegroup(
    name = "files",
    srcs = ["compile"],
    output_group = "es5_sources",
)

nodejs_image(
    name = "server",
    entry_point = "files",
)

But as soon as I introduce multiple Typescript files like this:

load("@io_bazel_rules_docker//nodejs:image.bzl", "nodejs_image")
load("@npm_bazel_typescript//:index.bzl", "ts_library")

ts_library(
    name = "compile",
    srcs = ["src/index.ts", "src/util.ts"],
)

filegroup(
    name = "files",
    srcs = ["compile"],
    output_group = "es5_sources",
)

nodejs_image(
    name = "server",
    data = ["files"],
    entry_point = "files/src/index.js",
)

Bazel doesn't find the entrypoint file:

ERROR: missing input file '//server:files/src/index.js'
ERROR: /home/flo/Desktop/my-own-minimal-bazel/server/BUILD:15:1: //server:server: missing input file '//server:files/src/index.js'

I can only get the repo to build if I break up the ts_library into two seperate ts_libs, one for the library, and one for the index.ts:

load("@io_bazel_rules_docker//nodejs:image.bzl", "nodejs_image")
load("@npm_bazel_typescript//:index.bzl", "ts_library")

ts_library(
    name = "lib",
    srcs = [
        "util.ts",
    ],
)

ts_library(
    name = "main",
    srcs = [
        "index.ts",
    ],
    deps = [":lib"],
)

filegroup(
    name = "libfiles",
    srcs = ["lib"],
    output_group = "es5_sources",
)

filegroup(
    name = "mainfile",
    srcs = ["main"],
    output_group = "es5_sources",
)

nodejs_image(
    name = "server",
    data = [
        ":libfiles",
        ":mainfile",
    ],
    entry_point = ":mainfile",
)

The above code is in a pull request to your repo. I'm not sure why you are unable to reference a single file of the filegroup!
