TypeScript typings give me “index.d.ts is not a module”

Question

I am getting File node_modules/@types/webrtc/index.d.ts is not a module with this code:

import * as webrtc from \"webrtc\";
const peerConnection1 =          


        

Answer 1

You probably want to add

"types": ["webrtc"]

to your tsconfig.json, or less preferrably, to use

/// 

in your source files. Here's an example of it in your tsconfig.json:

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "target": "es5",
        "sourceMap": true,
        "noImplicitAny": true,

        "types": ["webrtc"]
    },
    "exclude": [
        "node_modules"
    ]
}

This tells TypeScript it should include webrtc declarations in your build
