Typing errors about ngx-youtube-player HOT 18 CLOSED

@lucienimmink install npm i @types/youtube

from ngx-youtube-player.

please use version 0.0.28 for now.
npm i @types/[email protected]

from ngx-youtube-player.

run npm i @types/youtube and everything should work

from ngx-youtube-player.

awesome, might as well put that in the docs somewhere!

from ngx-youtube-player.

This is still confusing the heck out of me. In the end adding youtube to types solved it for me and either ng build or ng serve worked fine:

{
  "extends": "../tsconfig.json",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "../out-tsc/app",
    "module": "es2015",
    "types": ["youtube"]
  },
  "exclude": [
    "src/test.ts",
    "**/*.spec.ts"
  ]
}

Without this I was able to get the types installed for Visual Studio Code (nothing was underlined), but on compilation I'd get errors about YT being undefined.

@orizens I see that you did some crazy things in the 6.0 update such as calling win()['YT'] manually. Were you just as confused as me or was there a reason you didn't add "youtube" to types.

from ngx-youtube-player.

win()['YT'] returns the actual youtube object and isn't related to the YT interface.

I have one more issues similar like that after installing @type/youtube,

"Namespace 'YT' has no exported member 'EventArgs' "

from ngx-youtube-player.

WHAT I DID?
First: run npm i @types/youtube
Secund: run npm i
and finaly:
In the package .\node_modules\ng2-youtube-player\src\modules has youtube-player.component.d.ts
or .\node_modules\ngx-youtube-player\src\modules has youtube-player.component.d.ts
Change line 18 to : change: EventEmitter<YT.PlayerState>;
If has more files with "YT.PlayerEvent", change to YT.PlayerState

from ngx-youtube-player.

@simeyla actually, in v6, "@types/youtube" is now set as a dependency.
I was wondering to move it into peerDepdencies. any suggestion?

from ngx-youtube-player.

@orizens I'm not really an expert on how everything fits together. I just got the impression that by doing win()['YT'] you were trying to solve a problem you couldn't find another solution to. I made my own control and looked at your code to see how you were fixing the problem of YT not being defined at compile time even though my editor could recognize it. Adding "types": ["youtube"] to the compilerOptions fixed that for me. I guess I don't understand how installing a types package alone isn't enough to make the compiler recognize it, but I was going round in circles trying to find an explanation.
