Im trying to import my external library with Vue 3 and Typescript

Typescript says it can't find the declaration file in my library index.js, but since i use this library for different projects (Vue 2 and projects without Typescript) I dont really want to change it all that much.

Is there any way to let Typescript ignore this index.js or should I start refactoring my Library to Typescript?

import {
    MyText,
} from '@myapp/vue-components';

export const registerComponents = (app: App): void => {
    app.component(MyText)
}

Have made the library compatible with Vue 3? – Daniel_Knights Oct 15 '20 at 09:55
Yes - do you think the problem comes from Vue2 -> Vue3 and not Typescript trying to read index.js? I know i should refactor to Vue3 – Elias Marco Lip Oct 15 '20 at 09:58
I don't have much experience with TS so I couldn't say. Do you import all your components into an index.js? – Daniel_Knights Oct 15 '20 at 10:04
Yes - it looks in the index.js -> export default -> Vue.component(MyText). Im going to refactor the files now, checking if that'll do the job. Thanks – Elias Marco Lip Oct 15 '20 at 11:17
@EliasMarcoLip For your own non-TypeScript custom lib, I would just [declare the module in a `.d.ts` file](https://stackoverflow.com/a/50516783/6277151). – tony19 Dec 17 '20 at 16:32
