public static const in TypeScript

Question

Is there such a thing as public static constants in TypeScript? I have a class that looks like:

export class Library {
  public static BOOK_SHELF_NONE: stri

Thank you WiredPrairie!

Just to expand on your answer a bit, here is a complete example of defining a constants class.

// CYConstants.ts

class CYConstants {
    public static get NOT_FOUND(): number    { return -1; }
    public static get EMPTY_STRING(): string { return ""; }
}

export = CYConstants;

To use

// main.ts

import CYConstants = require("./CYConstants");

console.log(CYConstants.NOT_FOUND);    // Prints -1
console.log(CYConstants.EMPTY_STRING); // Prints "" (Nothing!)
