How to solve TypeScript errors with @turf/turf - "Could not find a declaration file for module"

[bjornhansen]

As far as I understand, there are included TypeScript types with the library, but my IDE (Jetbrains) is throwing TS errors when I install the library. Can anyone help me understand what is wrong, and if it's on my side what should I do?

What I did:

1. Ran npm install @turf/turf
2. Import a function: import centroid from "@turf/centroid";
3. Use the function (works fine)

The error is:

TS7016: Could not find a declaration file for module @turf/centroid.[local path]/node_modules/@turf/turf/dist/es/index.js implicitly has an any type.

There are types at [local path]/node_modules/@turf/turf/index.d.ts, but this result could not be resolved when respecting package.json exports . The @turf/turf library may need to update its package.json or typings.

Sounds similar to some errors that have gone by in other issues and potentially fixed in the latest 7.x alpha version of turf on npm. Give it a try?

Thanks, @twelch! I just tried the v7 alpha and the error is gone. Looking forward to full v7 release, thank you for your work on this!
