TypeScript Cannot find name 'window'

Question

In my Meteor/React project I have the following line:

let gameId = window.prompt("Please enter the ID of the game you wish to load.");

TypeScript gives the transpiling error Cannot find name 'window' . I am using barbatus/typescript , with default compiler options:

{ "module": "commonjs", "target": "es5", "moduleResolution": "node", "experimentalDecorators": true, "emitDecoratorMetadata": true, "sourceMap": true }

I tried creating a tsconfig.json in the root of my Meteor project, copying the above compiler options but appending the line:

"lib": ["es2015", "dom"]

However, the error remains.

Answer 1

我在 tsconfig.json 的 lib compilerOptions 中添加了“dom”，然后这个问题就解决了。
