@salesforce/lightning-types NPM

Salesforce Lightning Types

Public type definitions for packages exposed on the Salesforce Lightning platform.

Installation

First, install the package using your preferred package manager.

npm install @salesforce/lightning-types
# OR
yarn add @salesforce/lightning-types

Next, import the package once, from any TypeScript file in your project. For example, if you have a types directory, you may create a file called salesforce.d.ts.

// types/salesforce.d.ts
import "@salesforce/lightning-types";

Lastly, ensure that the file with the import is included in your tsconfig.json.

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    // ...
  },
  "include": ["src", "types"],
}

Now you can import Salesforce Lightning types!

import LightningInput from "lightning/input";

Installing with LWC

@salesforce/lightning-types does not provide types for the lwc package directly, but instead specifies the package as a peer dependency. This allows you to control which version of lwc you are using. However, not all package managers automatically install peer dependencies; you may need to specify the lwc dependency explicitly.

npm install @salesforce/lightning-types lwc
# OR
yarn add @salesforce/lightning-types lwc

Bug Reports

This package solely contains TypeScript type definitions; it is not responsible for the behavior of the APIs it documents. If you encounter any issues, you may post on Salesforce Stack Exchange or open a Salesforce case.

Security

Please report any security issue to security@salesforce.com as soon as it is discovered. This library limits its runtime dependencies in order to reduce the total cost of ownership as much as can be, but all consumers should remain vigilant and have their security stakeholders review all third-party products (3PP) like this one and their dependencies.
