Can't generate files for scoped packages

[dbnapp]

I realize that @types/storybook__react exists, this problem is really about if I use private scoped packages.

npx dts-gen -m @storybook/react
Unexpected crash! Please log a bug with the commandline you specified.
ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '@storybook/react.d.ts'

if I make a directory for @storybook in my project and run the command I get

npx dts-gen -m @storybook/react
Wrote 3 lines to @storybook/react.d.ts.

which is just a file called react.d.ts inside the @storybook directory I created and has the following contents

/** Declaration file generated by dts-gen */

export = @storybook/react;

it seems to have an error

Try dts-gen@0.6.0

This still fails on 0.6.0, but with a different error:

$ dts-gen -m @private/package -d
Warning: Could not retrieve version/homepage information: HTTP Error 404: Not Found for http://registry.npmjs.org/@private/package

@private/package is obviously a placeholder here, but represents a valid private scoped package that this project depends upon.

Did you find a solution to this? And is the problem related to it being private or it being scoped? Mine is both

[LawnGnome]

Did you find a solution to this?

No; this wasn't on the critical path for the project I was working on, so I dropped it, and I no longer work at that company. Sorry!

Fails for me too. dts-gen: v0.6.0

➜ dts-gen -m @vizydrop/logger -o                                                                                                                                       20:22:49

@vizydrop/logger is a private module here

I got this error for a third party scoped package. If it helps anyone, a quick and dirty workaround was to:

1. Install your scoped package @org/package. It will show up under node_modules/@org/package
2. Copy node_modules/@org/package to node_modules/package
3. Run dts-gen -m package.
4. Wrap the generated file with declare module @org/package
5. Delete the node_modules/package folder which you no longer need.

What I found works is, specify a directory with -d and run the command. It's going to throw an error, but still generate the necessary files. You may have to do the same wrapping at step 4 above
