Typescript error when using require('emoji-regex') about emoji-regex HOT 3 OPEN

Interesting, I can't repro this, it works fine for me:

Do you think it's maybe because you're using require() instead of import?

Maybe because the type declaration module uses declare module { } it only works if you're using module-style imports?

Also what version of the package are you running?

Yup, I'm assuming that's the problem. I'm using cjs so it doesn't look like the type declaration supports it.

I'm using 10.2.1

The index.d.ts should be updated to this instead:

diff --git a/index.d.ts b/index.d.ts
index 6f57555090390e09a3b3a2e39bab037c995b47b9..beb73be29022bf20734057e38148282207f5fa2b 100644

 declare module 'emoji-regex' {

+  function emojiRegex(): RegExp;

 }

It looks like it was changed by #89 for the index.mjs file but that then broke types for the index.js file. With split files like this, it should probably be defined directly inside those files as JSDoc instead if they're going to vary in typing like that.
