[shinriyo]

It can't install.
npm install @types/addsearch-js-client

I hope type definitions.

[shinriyo]

I just pull-requested for only class.

Any updates on Typescript support ? Thanks : )

[abhinayts]

Is there a package which can be used in Typescript project? Badly in need of it.

[jkytomaki]

@abhinayts we have worked towards bringing Typescript support to the project. Could you take a look at the branch provide-type-support-for-library and see if this works for you?

[abhinayts]

@jkytomaki I tried to install 0.8.2 but I don't see types installed in module. I am using npm install --save-dev addsearch-js-client@0.8.2. Am I missing anything? Also repo is not building getting error while running npm run build.

addsearch-js-client@0.8.2 build **\Repos\js-client-library-provide-type-support-for-library\js-client-library-provide-type-support-for-library
npm run test && ./node_modules/webpack-cli/bin/cli.js

addsearch-js-client@0.8.2 test **\Repos\js-client-library-provide-type-support-for-library\js-client-library-provide-type-support-for-library
./node_modules/mocha/bin/mocha.js --recursive --require @babel/register -r esm

'.' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

[haoAddsearch]

@abhinayts the feature branch is not published to npmjs, so to use it you need to clone the repo to your machine then install it from there.
npm install /path/to/project/folder/js-client-library

Regarding error with npm run build, you could try removing ./ at the beginning of "test" and "build" script in package.json.

[abhinayts]

removing ./ not helping.

[haoAddsearch]

In case you are using Windows machine, try editing package.json's scripts with this

"test": "node node_modules/mocha/bin/mocha.js --recursive --require @babel/register -r esm"

"build": "npm run test && node node_modules/webpack-cli/bin/cli.js"

[abhinayts]

@haoAddsearch so after using it the code in my application I am getting error. My application is TS application.
Unhandled Runtime Error
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'prototype')

.next\static\chunks\webpack.js (25:0) @ webpack_require

23 | webpack_require.i.forEach(function(handler) { handler(execOptions); });

26 | threw = false;
27 | } finally {
28 | if(threw) delete webpack_module_cache[moduleId];

[haoAddsearch]

@abhinayts we will need to create a bug ticket and look into this. Could you tell which frontend/backend framework your application is using?

[abhinayts]

@haoAddsearch I am trying to use it in react application using typescript.
