在vs2017上安装node.js打字稿包

Question

I'm trying to write a node.js server with typescript.

I found this link which explains how to do it:
http://brianflove.com/2016/03/29/typescript-express-node-js/

They install the typescript versions of "body-parser", "express", etc, but they do it from the console like so:

node_modules/.bin/typings install body-parser --ambient --save

Is there a way to do it with visual studio 2017?
I saw that I can add packages with the NPM, but it only adds the js versions of the packages.

Answer 1

You can install typescript version of package like this : npm install -S @types/lodash

FOund this here : https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/migrating-from-javascript.html

I tried it with package like express and it works pretty well.
