Is it support typescript?

I don't see, @types/mysql2. Where is type definition?

@hg-pyun see #1028 and #952

@sidorares Wow, Thank you for reply. It seems WIP.

I went to install the types like:
npm i -D @types/mysql2
but npm couldn't find them in the registry.

I read that the API is mostly compatible with mysql, so i did a
npm i -D @types/mysql
which downloaded fine (I've use these types with mysql before on another project). Maybe a @types/mysql2 can be created?

So, I tried to begin to type in the code sample:

const mysql = require('mysql2');
const conn = mysql.

but the intellisense didn't work after typing in the dot '.' as I was looking for 'createConnection(...)'
Are you able to assist with getting the intellisense working in Visual Studio Code?

As per #952 from @Cl00e9ment I ended up doing the following which worked for me :)

{
  ...
  "devDependencies": {
    ...
    "@types/mysql2": "git+https://git@github.com/types/mysql2.git"
  }
}

personal mark.

1. mysql2 better than mysql
2. mysql2 not written with typescript.
3. prepare statement support
4. difference from official mysql lib
