angular - How do I import from a `.d.ts` file? -

this line works in project uses angular2 rc4

import * maptypes '../../../../node_modules/angular2-google-maps/core/services/google-maps-types.d.ts';

what's happening?

now trying new seed file rc6 , same line gives me error

error ts2691: import path cannot end '.d.ts' extension. consider importing '../../../../node_modules/angular2-google-maps/core/services/google-maps-types' instead.

but if make suggested change,

cannot find module '../../../../node_modules/angular2-google-maps/core/services/google-maps-types'

the .d.ts file looks this:

/**  * angular2-google-maps - angular 2 components google maps  * @version v0.12.0  * @link https://github.com/sebastianm/angular2-google-maps#readme  * @license mit  */ export declare var google: any; export interface googlemap {     constructor(el: htmlelement, opts?: mapoptions): void;     panto(latlng: latlng | latlngliteral): void;     setzoom(zoom: number): void;     addlistener(eventname: string, fn: function): void;     getcenter(): latlng;     setcenter(latlng: latlng | latlngliteral): void;     getbounds(): latlngbounds;     getzoom(): number;     setoptions(options: mapoptions): void; } ... 

and matching .ts file looks like

/**  * angular2-google-maps - angular 2 components google maps  * @version v0.12.0  * @link https://github.com/sebastianm/angular2-google-maps#readme  * @license mit  */ "use strict";  //# sourcemappingurl=google-maps-types.js.map 

note: there newer version of package matched rc6, should able @ least compile in ts

if you're using last versions of typescript , typing definition embedded in npm package, can import module :

import { googlemap } 'angular2-google-maps/core/services/google-maps-types' 

even if it's interface.

in fact you're importing definition core/services/googles-maps-types.js, file exists provide definition associated in .d.ts file.

it's been made work if importing directly .ts file, you're in npm module, embed definition file permit definitions imports.
