Issue with automatically importing Meteor packages as external libraries for .ts files

Trying to transition a Node project primarily written in TypeScript to Meteor 1.4 and encountering some difficulties.

I have noticed that WebStorm is supposed to automatically import meteor when the option is selected, as explained on https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/2016.3/meteor.html. However, this does not seem to resolve references in the original *.ts files.

For instance, Assets.getText() is unresolved in .ts files but is resolved in the generated .js files.

Could this be an oversight or bug in WebStorm? And if so, how can I manually import Meteor typings to proceed with the migration?

Answer №1

After some investigation, I managed to resolve this issue by adding typings for Meteor from https://github.com/meteor-typings and including it in my project:

% typings install env~meteor --save --global

In my tsconfig.json file:

  "include": [
    "typings/**/*.ts"  
  ]
