TW5-Typed

TypeScript type definitions for TiddlyWiki5.

Usage

First, install it as dev-dependency:

npm i -D tw5-typed

Add tw5-typed to your tsconfig.json's compilerOptions

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "types": ["node", "tw5-typed"] /* Type declaration files to be included in compilation. */
  }
}

Then you will have global types like $tw automatically. You can import the rest of the types using import type statement:

import type { ISearchOptions, SourceIterator, IFilterOperatorParamOperator } from 'tiddlywiki';

Alias

Sometimes you may want to use a modified version of tw, you can re-export types like this in your src/type.d.ts:

declare module '@tiddlygit/tiddlywiki' {
  export * from 'tiddlywiki';
}

Development

Firstly, Install eslint using npm:

npm i

You can add new *.d.ts file to contain your types:

1. use declare module 'tiddlywiki' { } to wrap all your types.
2. don't forget to export all your types.
3. to add type for global variable, add global { } inside that declare module 'tiddlywiki' { }, like global { var $tw: I$TW; }
4. add type import like /// <reference path="ast.d.ts" /> in the tw.d.ts

Importing type from other files

• add type import like /// <reference path="parser.d.ts" />
• using normal import, like import { parse } from './parser'; will not work

Test in your node_modules

To rapid prototype the type, just right click a type to open .d.ts file in the node_modules, and try create new file there, and copy to this repo after a success.
