Usage with typescript?

[kitzler-walli]

How were you able to compile this in typescript?
There is no types definition for fetch and there are other issues with bluebird.

[gautamsi]

I have shimmed fetch type definition myself 😄

I am not sure what issues with bluebird. can you explain.

[kitzler-walli]

Could you check in your type definition with this project?
Then I'll send you a report about the issues with bluebird

[gautamsi]

let me know exact issue with type definitions.

[kitzler-walli]

OK even though the ews-javascript-api-auth is written in TS I can't use it directly because of this error:

I then tried to remove the JS files from the ews-javascript-api-auth module. But still this didn't work out so I tried to compile it. Some references were missing so I called 'npm install' and then tried again which causes the bluebird issues. Here is the output of the console:

[gautamsi]

ok, package.json does not have ` property. I will fix and upload new version. you can fix by adding this attribute to package.json like this

"typings": "src/index.d.ts",

this should fix your issue.

do not remove js files.

[kitzler-walli]

No it doesn't seem to fix it and there are other issues as well:

[gautamsi]

are you trying to build it yourself or just consume?

[kitzler-walli]

I'm trying to consume - but it seems like tsc tries to compile the auth module

[gautamsi]

you can set skipLibCheck to true in compiler options in typescript. it will not report these errors. latest version of typescript introduced strict type checking which may be causing this issue.

[omatrot]

@kitzler-walli @gautamsi I have the same problem with a slightly different error:

error TS7016: Could not find a declaration file for module 'ews-javascript-api-auth'. '/..../node_modules/ews-javascript-api-auth/src/index.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.

skipLibCheck is already set to true and adding "typings": "src/index.d.ts" in package.json spawns a ton of errors at compilation.

The fix to package.json seems to not have been committed.

[omatrot]

Solved it with this comment.

[gautamsi]

gr8, I am not sure if adding this switch in tsconfig of this repo would help. ideally skipLibCheck is enough.

[gautamsi]

let me know if you still facing this issue.
