When i npm install this library into my cli project and try to reference the types within it i get this:

 error TS2306: File 'C:/ng-ikr-lib-test/node_modules/@types/fhir/index.d.ts' is not a module.

Here is my tsconfig:

{

  "compileOnSave": false,

  "compilerOptions": {

    "baseUrl": "./",

    "outDir": "./dist/out-tsc",

    "sourceMap": true,

    "declaration": false,

    "moduleResolution": "node",

    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,

    "experimentalDecorators": true,

    "target": "es5",

    "typeRoots": [

      "node_modules/@types"

    ],

    "lib": [

      "es2017",

      "dom"

    ]

  }

}

and my app tsconfig which extends the above.

{

  "extends": "../tsconfig.json",

  "compilerOptions": {

    "outDir": "../out-tsc/app",

    "module": "es2015",

    "types": ["fhir"]

  },

  "exclude": [

    "src/test.ts",

    "**/*.spec.ts"

  ]

}

How are you supposed to use the types defined in this library in an angular-cli app?

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@types/fhir

The easiest way I've found is to reference the types with the following line at the top of your file:

///<referencepath="../../../node_modules/@types/fhir/index.d.ts"/>

For example, the references at the top of my fhir.service.ts file look like this:

///<reference path="../../../../node_modules/@types/fhir/index.d.ts"/>

import {Injectable} from '@angular/core';

import {Observable, throwError} from 'rxjs';

import {HttpClient, HttpHeaders, HttpParams} from '@angular/common/http';



import Patient = fhir.Patient;

import Observation = fhir.Observation;

import Bundle = fhir.Bundle;

import Medication = fhir.Medication;

You can find out more background information at https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/declaration-files/library-structures.html under the "Consuming Dependencies" section.

If others stumble upon this, I published a repackaged version of this library to the public npm registry. You can find it here:
