tsc

I want to assign properties to the instance of a class without knowing the property names, values and types of values in TypeScript. Lets assume we have the following example.ts script: // This could be a server response and could look totally diffent another time... const someJson:string = '{ "foo": "bar", "bar": "baz" }' class MyClass { someProperty:boolean constructor( json:string ) { const parsedJson:any = JSON.parse( json ) Object.keys( parsedJson ).forEach( ( key:string ) => { this[ key ] = parsedJson[ key ] } ) this['someProperty'] = true } } const myInstance = new MyClass( someJson ) /

I am running a typescript build and getting errors in node_modules. Why isn't it ignoring this folder? I have it in the exclude section of my tsconfig.json. The really strange thing is that I have another project that I have done a file comparison with and it does not throw these errors even though gulpfile.js, tsconfig.json and the node_modules folders are identical. What else can I check? Errors: c:/Dev/streak-maker/node_modules/angular2/src/core/change_detection/parser/locals.d.ts(3,14): error TS2304: Cannot find name 'Map'. c:/Dev/streak-maker/node_modules/angular2/src/core/change

There is a simple TS package that is used as CommonJS modules and has no exports. TS files are compiled to JS files with the same name and used as require('package/option-foo') . tsconfig.json: { "compilerOptions": { "target": "es5" } } option-foo.ts: declare const GlobalVar: any; function baz() {} if (GlobalVar.foo) GlobalVar.baz = baz; option-bar.ts: declare const GlobalVar: any; function baz() {} if (GlobalVar.bar) GlobalVar.baz = baz; The important part here is that option-foo and option-bar are never used together . There are other complimentary TS files in the project, but they don't

I'm fairly new to TypeScript, and right now I have .ts files in several places throughought my project structure: app/ |-scripts/ |-app.ts | |-classes/ | |-classA.ts | |-classB.ts | |-controllers/ | |-controllerA.ts | |-controllerB.ts | |-otherStuff/ |-otherstuffA.ts Right now, when my files are compiled, they are compiled to the same directory that the .ts fles are in: app/ |-scripts/ |-app.ts |-app.js | |-classes/ | |-classA.ts | |-classB.ts | |-classA.js | |-classB.js | |-controllers/ | |-controllerA.ts | |-controllerB.ts | |-controllerA.js | |-controllerB.js | |-otherStuff/ |-otherstuffA

I meant to write a parameter of type number , but I misspelled the type, writing Number instead. On my IDE (JetBrains WebStorm) the type Number is written with the same color that is used for the primitive type number , while if I write a name of a class (known or unknown) it uses a different color, so I guess that somehow it recognizes the misspelled type as a correct/almost-correct/sort-of-correct type. When I compile the code, instead of complaining for example that the compiler couldn't found a class named Number , TSC writes this error message: Illegal property access Does that mean that

I'm giving a shot at typescript. It works fine at the hello world stage. I'm now trying to use a npm module : index.ts = import _ = require('lodash') console.log(_.toUpper('Hello, world !')) This doesn't work : tsc index.ts -> Cannot find module 'lodash'. (2307) node-ts index.js -> Cannot find module 'lodash'. (2307) Looking at typescript documentation and in google didn't help. Other S/O questions are either unanswered ( here and here ) or unrelated. Elements : typescript 1.8 latest Yes, lodash is installed npm i --save lodash and exists in my filesystem (checked) I also did typings i --save
