import stripe using node js + typescript

Question

I need to import stripe in to my application

First i installed stripe npm package

npm install stripe --save

Stripe documentation says that secret key should be set before connect the api.

In Node it likes this

var stripe = require('stripe')(' your stripe API key ');

I need to convert it to typescript

I tried following way . but it didnt work for me

import * as stripe from 'stripe';
stripe('sk_test_...')

if some can help me to solve this problem it will great help to me to continue my project without delay.

Thank you

Update: The solution below is outdated and for those using [email protected] or greater the answer from David Dehghan should be used.

As britzkopf said, stripe don't provide their own definitions yet (and probably never will), but you can use the type definitions from @types/stripe.

npm install stripe @types/stripe

And then import and construct the Stripe class as follows.

import * as Stripe from 'stripe';
const stripe = new Stripe('xxx_xxx_xxx');

If you want finer grained imports for some reason you can use this (somewhat hacky) approach instead.

import { resources } from 'stripe';
const stripeData = require('stripe')('xxx_xxx_xxx');
const customers = new resources.Customers(stripeData, null);
