Deno - how to import with typings?

See original GitHub issue

Hi. Great library. I am trying to use it in Deno, but can’t seem to get typings to work… I am importing via

import {PDFDocument} from "https://cdn.pika.dev/pdf-lib@^1.7.0";

and everything works, but I don’t have types imported, so I don’t have intellisense in VS code.

When I import this library for node project (via npm ), everything is fine. Am I missing something? Thanks.

Did too much investigation here, full details in the other Issue but the TLDR is:

No longer have to downgrade to the deprecated plugin
Instead, have to add ?dts to the end of imports from skypack.dev (formerly pika.dev)

So import { PDFDocument } from 'https://cdn.skypack.dev/pdf-lib@^1.11.1?dts'; works

Follow-up

After some investigation, turns out that official VS Code plugin Deno by denoland is not working as it should. Reverting to VS Code plugin marked as deprecated [Deprecated] Deno by axetroy solved the issue.

Conclusion

There’s really no issue here with your library after all. Sorry to bother you and keep up the excellent work!
