打字稿找不到模块量角器

Question

I am integrating e2e testing in my project. The project uses Typescript (2.6.1).

I have just installed Protractor (5.2.0) but no matter what I do Typescript cannot import anything from the Protractor module.

My tsconfig looks like this:

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "target": "es5",
        "module": "amd"
    },
    "exclude": [
        "./spec",
        "./node_modules",
        "./bower_components"
    ]
}

My very simple try out test looks like this:

import { browser } from "protractor";

describe("test should run", () => {
    it("should navigate to the page", () => {

    });
});

I get the following error: TypeScript error: usermanagement/ts/controllers/RolesController.e2e.ts(1,25): error TS2307: Cannot find module 'protractor'.

Looking at the Protractor installation in my node_modules folder I do find a reference to a typings file and the actual typings themselves. However Typescript simply does not 'see' them. Interestingly Typescript has no problem finding typings in the node_modules/@types folder.

Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

In your tsconfig add:

"module": "commonjs"

This is the recommended config I mention here as well https://basarat.gitbooks.io/typescript/content/docs/quick/nodejs.html
