TypeScript - Global import doesn't work for MomentJS
TypeScript provides an option to define global external modules. For example, if I have jQuery library loaded externally, I can set up global definition without including it's duplicate into TypeScript bundle. But when I try to do the same for 'moment' module, compiler doesn't import it's typing.
Here is my content of tsconfig.json
, compilerOptions
section
"compilerOptions": {
"outDir": "../out-tsc/app",
"module": "es2015",
"types": ["jquery", "moment"]
}
Here is code fragment that uses these definitions:
console.log($);
console.log(moment); // error TS2304: Cannot find name 'moment'
So it works fine for jQuery but not for MomentJS. I also have @types/jquery
and moment
added to package.json
and installed into node_modules
.
I know it's possible to use ES6 import syntax but it will include it into a bundle and I want to avoid it because it's already loaded in another place of the app.
