Using moment.js in Angular 2 typescript applicatio

问题:

I'm struggling in using moment.js library inside an Angular 2 Typescript app. Even after reading the answer to this question I can't get it to work.

This is what I did so far:

• I installed moment.js using npm, so I can find the library under node_modules/moment/moment.js

• I configured System.js to retrieve moment library:

  System.config({
      packages: {
        app: {
          format: 'register',
          defaultExtension: 'js'
        },
        moment: {
          main: 'moment.js',
          type: 'cjs',
          defaultExtension: 'js'
        }
      },
      map: {
        moment: 'node_modules/moment'
      }
  });
  

• I installed typescript typings with typings install moment-node --ambient --save and typings install moment --ambient --save, so I can see the correct typings inside typings/main/ambient/moment-node and typings/main/ambient/moment

Now, if in my code I use import * as moment from 'moment'; typescript compilation run smooth and I can see the correct suggestion inside Atom editor (if I start with moment(). I can see year(), month(), etc.). However if I run my code inside the browser, it gives an error saying that 'moment is not a function' (debugging I can see that moment is an object with lots of methods).

If I write import moment from 'moment'; the code in the browser runs fine, however typescript compilation fails with 'module moment has no default export' and I can't get any suggestion from Atom while writing code.

What am I doing wrong? What's the correct way to import moment.js (and any non typescript library) inside an Angular 2 typescript application?

回答1:

import * as moment_ from 'moment';
const moment:moment.MomentStatic = (<any>moment_)['default'] || moment_;

回答2:

As pointed out further down moment ships with its own typings now. And @angular/cli have changed aswell. Updated my answer to reflect this.

npm i --save moment

import * as moment from 'moment';

export class SomeClass implements OnInit {

  date: moment.Moment;

  ngOnInit() {
    this.date = moment();
  }

}

is all that is needed with @angular/cli.

Below is my old outdated answer.

With angular-cli: So you get Intellisense in VsCode

edit --> angular-cli-build.js

module.exports = function(defaults) {
  return new Angular2App(defaults, {
    vendorNpmFiles: [
      ...

      'moment/min/**', // add this line

      ...
    ]
  });
};

edit --> system-config.ts

const map: any = {
  moment: 'vendor/moment/min/moment.min.js' // add this line
};

In your component:

import * as moment from 'moment';

...
// example of usage
dates: moment.Moment[] = [];

ngOnInit() {
  let date = moment();
  date.add(2, 'days');
  this.dates.push(date);
}

Also I found this: Install Moment.js using NPM:

npm install moment

Add it to your SystemJS configuration:

map: {
  'angular2': 'node_modules/angular2',
  'rxjs': 'node_modules/rxjs',
  'moment': 'node_modules/moment/moment'
}

You also need the interface: tsd install moment --save and then add:

/// <reference path="typings/moment/moment.d.ts" />
import * as moment from 'moment';

回答4:

From your index.html add

 <script src="../node_modules/moment/moment.js"></script>

In your component use:

declare var moment: any;
...

this.startDate = moment().subtract(15, 'days').format('DD-MM-YYYY');
this.endDate = moment().format('DD-MM-YYYY');

回答5:

When you import a module using namespace syntax to gather the exports onto a single object, as in import * as moment from 'moment', you are not importing the actually moment object which the module exports, but rather all of its members. You are losing the call signature. To resolve this, in a SystemJS + TypeScript project, specify either a value of "system" for module or a value of true for allowSyntheticDefaultImports, passing these to the TypeScript compiler, preferably via a tsconfig.json file. Then import moment like so

import moment from 'moment';

and everything will work.
