Use of Typings

[oliviercherrier]

Hello,

I was trying to manage include leaflet-omnivore in a Ionic 2 / Angular 2 project.

In a first approach, I installed the leaflet-omnivore npm packages (npm install leaflet-omnivore --save) and I try to typings dt~leaflet-omnivore to get leaflet-omnivore accessible from a import * as L_o from 'leaflet-omnivore' (as from leaflet) but it seams not possible:

C:\PoPaRe>typings install dt~leaflet-omnivore --global --save

typings ERR! message Unable to find "leaflet-omnivore" ("dt") in the registry.
typings ERR! message We could use your help adding these typings to the registry : https://github.com/typings/registry

Moreover, I cannot find any leaflet-omnivore entry here: https://api.typings.org/search?query=leaflet

In a second approach, I include the leaflet-omnivore.min.js in the www/build/js folder and link in to my component using

declare var require: any;
var omnivore = require('../../../www/build/js/leaflet-omnivore.min.js');

It works but I am afraid that this solution is pretty uggly... Can you advise me on the good way to use leaflet-omnivore insied a Ionic 2 / Angular 2 project.

Thank you by advance,

Olivier.

Hi Oliver,

Yep, what you're finding is that there are no available typings for leaflet-omnivore. Since I don't use Angular or TypeScript and rarely have free time, I haven't written them myself. You're certainly welcome to write them, and contribute them to the DefinitelyTyped repository. Closing this issue, as this isn't a problem directly with leaflet-omnivore and typings, while nice-to-have, are not a requirement to use a JavaScript library.
