An import path cannot end with a '.ts' extension

Hey! First of all, thanks for a great library 😃

I was just working on getting this set up in my project, and I get an error when I try to import the library in a typescript file: import * as Factory from 'factory.ts';

The compiler says: error TS2691: An import path cannot end with a '.ts' extension. Consider importing 'factory' instead.

I am using Typescript 2.4.2 and library version 0.2.2.

Is there something I am missing in the tsconfig? How can I get past this error? Thanks!

I see that this is closed - any resolution on this ? Unfortunately @MoSattler’s solution doesn’t work for me 😦

A temporary solution is to create an alias

  "devDependencies": {
    "factory.ts": "0.5.1",
    "factory": "file:node_modules/factory.ts"
  }

// import * as Factory from "factory.ts";
import * as Factory from "factory";

If this causes problems with npm ci, another option is to use

"factory": "https://registry.npmjs.org/factory.ts/-/factory.ts-0.5.1.tgz"
