Type definition errors

[gfmio]

Hi! I'm just trying to get snabbdom-to-html working with TypeScript and I'm getting a bunch of error messages about the type definitions using tsc v2.4.2:

node_modules/snabbdom-to-html/type-definitions/snabbdom-to-html.d.ts(1,9): error TS2305: Module '"/Users/gfmio/projects/js/csam-new/csam/node_modules/snabbdom/snabbdom"' has no exported member 'VNode'.

The first error can be fixed by replacing the line with import {VNode} from "snabbdom/vnode";.

The second error can be fixed by replacing the declare module "snabbdom-to-html" block with

declare module "snabbdom-to-html" {
  export function toHTML(vnode: VNode): string;
}

My linter also alerted me that the declaration of Module can be changed to export type Module = (vnode: VNode, attributes: Map<string, number | string>) => void;.

I couldn't figure out how to get rid off the other error messages (except for by deleting them) unless you move them to separate files.

Can I submit these initial fixes as a pull request? Alternatively, can I quickly rewrite the library in TypeScript? That should also solve all problems.

Cheers!

sorry @gfmio somehow I missed your issue completely.

Yes, feel free to submit a PR.

Also a TypeScript rewrite has been on our radar for a long time (you can check old issues). Go ahead if you have the time.

Also, in a complete rewrite scenario, it would be great to consider suggestions and opinions from both the snabbdom and the Cycle.js communities (the @cycle/html module depends on this library). Both projects are written in TS.
