I'm using an existing js library that uses AMD modules in my typescript code. I want to use a Javascript class as the base for my Typescript class. This is what I'm trying to do:
famous.js
define('famous/core/View',['require','exports','module'],function(require, exports, module) {
function View() {
...
}
...
module.exports = View;
});
View.d.ts
declare module "famous/core/View" {
}
AppView.ts
import View = require('famous/core/View');
class AppView extends View {
}
export = AppView;
But it says "Cannot find name 'View'". I suppose it's logical it doesn't work since a module is not a class, but I don't know another way.
You need to define a class and use export =
in View.d.ts. For example:
declare module "famous/core/View" {
class View {
// TODO define members of View
}
export = View;
}
