How to disable a ts rule for a specific line?

Question

Summernote is a jQuery plugin, and I don't need type definitions for it. I just want to modify the object, but TS keeps throwing errors. The line bellow still gives me: "Property 'summernote' does not exist on type 'jQueryStatic'." error.

(function ($) {

  /* tslint:disable */
  delete $.summernote.options.keyMap.pc.TAB;
  delete $.summernote.options.keyMap.mac.TAB;
  /* tslint:enable */

})(jQuery)

Edit:

Here is my tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "outDir": "./dist/",
    "sourceMap": true,
    "noImplicitAny": true,
    "module": "commonjs",
    "target": "es5",
    "allowJs": true,
    "noUnusedParameters": true
  },
  "include": [
      "js/**/*"
  ],
  "exclude": [
      "node_modules",
      "**/*.spec.ts"
  ]
}

You can use /* tslint:disable-next-line */ to locally disable tslint. However, as this is a compiler error disabling tslint might not help.

You can always temporarily cast $ to any:

delete ($ as any).summernote.options.keyMap.pc.TAB

which will allow you to access whatever properties you want.

Edit: As of Typescript 2.6, you can now bypass a compiler error/warning for a specific line:

if (false) {
    // @ts-ignore: Unreachable code error
    console.log("hello");
}

Note that the official docs "recommend you use [this] very sparingly". It is almost always preferable to cast to any instead as that better expresses intent.
