Could not find a declaration file for module 'aws-iot-device-sdk'

[mvadrev]

Describe the issue

Trying to setup using this example on angular13: Check links

After i npm install and try to import : import * as AWSIoTData from "aws-iot-device-sdk";

it complains that:

'AWSIoTData' is declared but its value is never read.ts(6133)
Could not find a declaration file for module 'aws-iot-device-sdk'. 'c:/Users/mvadr/OneDrive/Desktop/aws-mqtt/node_modules/aws-iot-device-sdk/index.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.
  Try `npm i --save-dev @types/aws-iot-device-sdk` if it exists or add a new declaration (.d.ts) file containing `declare module 'aws-iot-device-sdk';`ts(7016)

npm i --save-dev @types/aws-iot-device-sdk does not seem to be working

Any updated tutorial as i see there seem to be some issues with angular 12+?

Can you try both of these options:

When a module is not yours - try to install types from @types:

npm install -D @types/module-name If the above install errors - try changing import statements to require:

// import * as yourModuleName from 'module-name'; const yourModuleName = require('module-name');
