SyntaxError: export declarations may only appear at top level of a module

Hi all!

 

I'm newbie in custom visuals development so sorry for a stupid question may be.

I follow this instruction for creating a new custom visual.

I created the new project using the same way as instruction says. It works fine.

Well, I installed d3 library and added typings using command:

npm install @types/[email protected] --save-dev

My little project understands type d3 after that. But it does not work now.

I did a little research and saw the following message in browser console:

 

 

As I see the script crashes because export command appears at NOT top level of module.

I will be grateful for any help.

 

Thanks in advance,

Alexander.

      Hello Ignat!

       

      Thank you so much! It works.

      I think it will be good to update this section of tutorial on Github.

      It contains an example of d3 version 4.9.1 installation.

      Thank you once again!

       

      Regards,

      Alexander.
