Correct usage with TS2 and @types/node

[wclr]

I've installed @types/node and ts2 beta (locally and globally)

If I do tsc path/to/file.ts (or node ./node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc path/to/file.ts) it compiles ok, so no need in placing path to node typings in files. But ts-node requires it.

I use ts-node using register hook and can not find typings for node while run. So I have to place: "node_modules/@types/node/index.d.ts" in files of tsconfig.json and then it works.

Is it expected? Why it should it be configured this way?

Can you provide the versions you're using?

[wclr]

ts-node@0.9.1

[blakeembrey]

That would be why. You need to update.

This is the PR (#150) that should have enabled support. Let me know if that fixes things for you.

Here's a related issue also: #153.

[wclr]

Seems the issue persist with 1.3.0, in tsconfig I only have exclude (or files).

@whitecolor Are you using Windows? Could be the same issue as #168 - I haven't resolved that yet.

[wclr]

Yes i'm using windows, ts-node doesn't lookup typings in node_modules/@types (the same problem I experience with webpack's ts-loader)

[blakeembrey]

It works on Unix as far as I know, so it's not that.

Hello, Windows 10 64 bit here. Using typescript 2.0.3 and ts-node 1.3.0

I got this working by using the types key under compilerOptions in tsconfig.json

Here is an example tsconfig.json I'm using to run mocha tests via npm with the following script: "mocha --compilers ts:ts-node/register,tsx:ts-node/register \"./src/**/*.spec.ts\""

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        ...
        "types": [
          "node",
          "mocha",
          "chai",
          ...
        ]
    },
    "include": [
      "./src/**/*.ts",
      "./src/**/*.tsx"
    ],
    "exclude": [
      "node_modules",
      "./src/**/*.spec.ts"
    ]
}

That works.
