Error executing tsc on ngconf2015demo - missing tsd.d.ts

Trying to setup Angular2 with Visual Studio 2015RC on Windows, and following TodoMVC application demo for ng-conf 2015 instructions, I get to the point where tsd reinstall produces the following output:

c:\...>tsd reinstall
>> tsd 0.5.7
-> running reinstall
>> written 1 file:
    - angular2/angular2.d.ts

and it creates typings folder, but the only thing in it is the above angular2/angular2.d.ts

The contents of tsd.json is:

{
  "version": "v4",
  "repo": "borisyankov/DefinitelyTyped",
  "ref": "master",
  "path": "typings",
  "bundle": "typings/tsd.d.ts",
  "installed": {
    "angular2/angular2.d.ts": {
      "commit": "b3834d886a95789e6ab56e8244775ec10c5293d0"
    }
  }
}

So when I try to execute the next command, per the demo setup steps tsc, I get this error:

C:\...> tsc
error TS6053: File 'typings/tsd.d.ts' not found.

What am I doing wrong, that causes that file to not be where expected?

Solution

  • a.) Update tsd please npm update tsd -g.

    b.) To reinstall and save to tsd.d.ts you need to use the save option : https://github.com/DefinitelyTyped/tsd#reinstall-definitions

    tsd reinstall -so
