Hello,
Disclaimer: New to ts/npm, but want to take advantage of the ui.frontend in archetype 20. I'm migrating a clientlib from ui.apps to ui.frontend in Archetype 20. I converted the js files to ts files. I resolved most warnings and errors after changing the extension from .js to .ts. However, I can not seem to fix errors where I had made a call to Coral and Granite. In JS, this was allowed. In TS, it causes a compilation error. I understand that I cannot implicitly use an object as I did in my js file, but I can't find a fix.
A line like this:
new Coral.SelectList();
generates this:
TS2304: Cannot find name 'Coral'.
...or...
My closing line:
})(document, Granite.$);
generate the same kind of error...
TS2304: Cannot find name 'Granite'.
I tried to resolve the Coral issue first. I tried installing coral-ui to my node_modules folder:
npm i coral-ui
...and adding to my package.json
"coral-ui": "^1.0.3",
"core-js": "^2.5.4",
...and adding to my .ts file
import {Coral} from 'coral-ui';
That changed the error to:
TS2305: Module '"../../[longpathhere]/ui.frontend/node_modules/coral-ui/lib/index"' has no exported member 'Coral'.
When a coworker tried this in a test angular project, that had worked. Any ideas on how to do this the AEM way in ui.frontend?
Thanks in advance.
