types-local: A TypeScript Definition Helper for not type-defined package in DefinitelyTyped to use easily

types-local is a tool that generates TypeScript definition file (.d.ts) from node package.

types-local uses dts-gen, generates module at types-local/<module-name> and install folder as package.

Usage

> npm install -g types-local

# install not type-defined package
> npm install --save <module-name>, <module-name2>, ...
> types-local install <module-name>, <module-name2>, ...

This generates

.
+-- types-local
   +-- <module-name>
       +-- package.json
       +-- index.d.ts (type definition)
   +-- <module-name2>
       +-- package.json
       +-- index.d.ts (type definition)
   ...

And update tsconfig.json

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "baseUrl": ".", // if not exists
        "paths": { // add module path
            "${moduleName}": [
                "types-local/${moduleName}"
            ],
            "${moduleName2}": [
                "types-local/${moduleName2}"
            ],
            ...
        }
    }
}

# if you want to uninstall definition
> types-local uninstall <module-name>, <module-name2>, ...

will remove types-local/<module-name>, types-local/<module-name2>, ... and update tsconfig.json.
