I'm using Typescript with AngularJS.
I have a problem with modals using typed definition of jQuery library.
I get the following error: 'error TS2339: Property 'modal' does not exist on type 'JQuery'.'
Version: jQuery library, version 1.10.x / 2.0.x
Definitions: https://github.com/borisyankov/DefinitelyTyped
Code
$scope.delete = function (id) {
Photo.get({id: id}, function(result) {
$scope.photo = result;
$('#deletePhotoConfirmation').modal('show');// error line
});
};
I'm referencing to jquery.d.ts
in angular.d.ts
<reference path="../jquery/jquery.d.ts" />
and my global vendor reference file looks like:
<reference path='../vendor/types/angular/angular.d.ts' />
<reference path='../vendor/types/angular/angular-mocks.d.ts' />
<reference path='../vendor/types/jasmine/jasmine.d.ts' />
with newer versions of typescript (>v2 i believe):
npm install -D @types/bootstrap
Your problem is caused by the lack of property with name modal
in the jquery.d.ts file.
If you sure that this work in pure JS you can trick with it like this
$scope.delete = function (id) {
Photo.get({id: id}, function(result) {
$scope.photo = result;
(<any>$('#deletePhotoConfirmation')).modal('show');
});
};
Also, you can find additional d.ts
file where this option has already been defined.
Try to consider this library that has already had modal
option
Good Luck!
Try installing the typings for Bootstrap DefinitelyTyped
typings install --global --save dt~bootstrap
In my case I had to use
npm install -D @types/bootstrap
and then I had to import bootstrap
import * as bootstrap from 'bootstrap';
but most important step was to remove jquery
import * as $ from 'jquery';
otherwise it was giving me this error:
TypeError: $(...).modal is not a function
this work for me, i add in first row:
declare var $ :any;
this declare $
type is any
,
Just add
import * as bootstrap from "bootstrap";
import * as $ from "jquery";
in your app.module.ts
And install these packages
npm install @types/jquery --save-dev
npm install @types/bootstrap --save-dev
