Cannot import plugin with `ts-node`

I am using this in a gulp to compile using gulp-better-rollup when importing it uses the typings from dist and loads rollup-plugin-typescript2.cjs.js

However rollup does not export the default as default in cjs

Using

import typescript from "rollup-plugin-typescript2"

results in TypeError: rollup_plugin_typescript2_1.default is not a function.

To work around this I have had to import like this

import * as typescript from "rollup-plugin-typescript2"

Then cast as any to invoke.

plugins: [
        (typescript as any)()
]

Also the interface for the options does not match the documentation, as the typeings has the options object as required and all properties as required.

Looks like there are bunch of workarounds, closing for now.

If you use a gulpfile.ts, using typescript 2.8 and "esModuleInterop": true option you can import this with

import typescript from "rollup-plugin-typescript2";

enabling this option, can change other import behaviours (if an import fails at runtime try removing * as from that import, or adding it).
