@j4m3sb0mb My apologies that it has taken us so long to get to this. Thank you for your contribution.

I would love to get this merged, can you please remove the ^ symbols from the changed package.json files. In this repository we require that all dependencies use explicit versions.

You can check that the test passes locally by running npm run depcheck from the root folder.

@jeromesimeon @radhikakotangoor I'm happy with this, do either of you have input on the type definitions?

[j4m3sb0mb]

I left some any type that should be changed with the proper type but I wasn't sure wich was.

Fantastic contribution. Thanks for much @j4m3sb0mb !

Just a couple of things:

1. we'll need a rebase to merge this I'm afraid, due to conflict with the latest version in master (I could take this over, but would prefer if you manage to do it since it's your code)
2. I would really love a mini "helloworld.ts" showing how anyone can use this from typescript. This might serve as a minimal test as well

[j4m3sb0mb]

Ok @jeromesimeon where should i put the "helloworld.ts"?

That's a really good question. I would put it in e.g., ./tests/typescript for now. We can see later if we find a better place.

I'm writing a little example with some functions but I think that for a real test should be used this package: https://github.com/SamVerschueren/tsd

Hi @j4m3sb0mb it's been a while since I've looked at TypeScript, but what you are suggesting sounds good (we will have to maintain this over time). I think the PR is valuable as is though I think I would be happy with either:

1. add a small example to explain how to use the code with TypeScript and merge this, then do a later separate PR with a testing package along the lines of the one you suggest
2. keep this PR open and wait for testing

I think it's a bit up to you which of those sound better.

Thanks!
