Did TS declaration file disappear for v4?

[bmueller-sykes]

Apologies if this is not the right place for this. As of a couple of days ago, I cannot get my TS-based React project to start in dev mode. I'm running v4.10.1 at present, and cannot upgrade to v5 (I still rely on basename for some parts of my code, and cannot easily refactor those parts yet. Someday...).

When I run npm start I get the following error:

Could not find a declaration file for module 'history'. '/path/to/project/node_modules/history/index.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.
If the 'history' package actually exposes this module, consider sending a pull request to amend 'https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped/tree/master/types/history'

1 | import { useHistory } from 'react-router-dom';
2 | import { createBrowserHistory } from 'history';

Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks!

Same story for us

We cannot upgrade to v5, but still need type definitions for v4

type definitions for versions prior to v5 are available via DefinitelyTyped (just make sure to use the v4 version of the types)

Okay, thank you for the quick answer!

Worked for us

Yeah, that worked for me as well, it would appear. I looked for that type file, but couldn't find it initially for some reason, but adding this to my devDependencies in package.json:

`"@types/history": "4.7.11",

...did the trick
