Using this module in other modules
Here is a quick example of how this module can be used in other modules. The TypeScript Module Resolution Logic makes it quite easy. The file src/index.ts
is a barrel that re-exports selected exports from other files. The package.json file contains main
attribute that points to the generated lib/index.js
file and typings
attribute that points to the generated lib/index.d.ts
file.
If you are planning to have code in multiple files (which is quite natural for a NodeJS module) that users can import, make sure you update src/index.ts
file appropriately.
Now assuming you have published this amazing module to npm with the name my-amazing-lib
, and installed it in the module in which you need it -
- To use the
Greeter
class in a TypeScript file -
import { Greeter } from "my-amazing-lib";
const greeter = new Greeter("World!");
greeter.greet();
- To use the
Greeter
class in a JavaScript file -
const Greeter = require("my-amazing-lib").Greeter;
const greeter = new Greeter("World!");
greeter.greet();
