⚠️ This requires minimum git version 2.27.0, which is likely newer than the default on most machines. This will reduce clone time and improve git performance. This will take some time to clone and may be unnecessarily unwieldy.įor a more manageable clone that includes only the type packages relevant to you, you can use git's sparse-checkout, -filter, and -depth features. You can clone the entire repository as per usual, but it's large and includes a massive directory of type packages. Partial clone You can clone the entire repository as per usual, but it's large and includes a massive directory of type packages. Here is a handy reference showing the life-cycle of a pull request to DT: You can read more about why and how here. We use a bot to let a large number of pull requests to DefinitelyTyped be handled entirely in a self-service manner. If using npm v7 you need to add the -legacy-peer-deps flag to the command.
#Npm busboy install
Once you've tested your package, you can share it on Definitely Typed.įirst, fork this repository, clone it, install node, and run npm install. Then follow the instructions to edit an existing package orĬreate a new package. Once you've tested your definitions with real code, make a PR
#Npm busboy code
Then build and run the code to make sure your type definition actually corresponds to what happens at runtime. You should now be able to import from "foo" in your code and it will route to the new type definition.

How can I contribute?ĭefinitely Typed only works because of contributions by users like you! Testingīefore you share your improvement with the world, use the types yourself by creating a typename.d.ts file in your project and filling out its exports:Ĭreate types/foo/index.d.ts containing declarations for the module "foo".
#Npm busboy download
Manually download from the master branch of this repository and place them in your project.Here is the support packages have tags for versions of TypeScript that they explicitly support, so you can usually get older versions of packages that predate the 2-year window.įor example, if you run npm dist-tags you'll see that TypeScript 2.5 can use types for whereas TypeScript 2.6 and 2.7 can use types for Tag If you're using TypeScript 2.0 to 4.0, you can still try installing packages - the majority of packages don't use fancy new TypeScript features.īut there's no guarantee that they'll work. Currently versions 4.1 and above are tested. Support Windowĭefinitely Typed only tests packages on versions of TypeScript that are less than 2 years old. Or just look for any ".d.ts" files in the package and manually include them with a ///. This is usually provided in a "types" or "typings" field in the package.json, If you still can't find it, check if it bundles its own typings.


For an npm package "foo", typings for it will be at you can't find your package, look for it on TypeSearch.
