TypeScript problem?

Primus 7.1.0

Environment:

• macOS High Sierra
• Google Chrome Canary
• Node.js: 8.8.0

I’ve just created a main.ts file with :

import { app, BrowserWindow } from "electron";
import { Primus } from "primus";

let mainWindow: BrowserWindow;

function createWindow() {
  mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({width: 1200, height: 800});

  mainWindow.loadURL("file://" + __dirname + "/index.html");

  mainWindow.webContents.openDevTools();

  const Socket = Primus.createSocket({ transformer: "engine.io", plugin: "primus-emit" });
  const primus = new Socket("http://localhost:2121");

  primus.on("open", () => {
    this.log("Connection opened !");
  });

  mainWindow.on("closed", () => {
    mainWindow = null;
});
}

app.on("ready", createWindow);

app.on("window-all-closed", () => {
  if (process.platform !== "darwin") {
    app.quit();
  }
});

app.on("activate", () => {
  if (mainWindow === null) {
    createWindow();
  }
});

And I have a compile error with tsc :

$ tsc
src/main.ts(14,18): error TS2351: Cannot use 'new' with an expression whose type lacks a call or construct signature.

It is on the Socket but in plain vanilla javascript it is working, i can’t understand? thanks

Okay, i will take a look closer and open a PR if we have to change the declaration file so

I have some news.

For this code in a .ts file:

it’s working, but there are some errors dues to the definition file I think:
