Hello!

 

Many thanks to Ignat for replies.

 

I am trying to solve the same thing.

I have installed the ECharts library using npm. Then I added typings of ECharts.

It works good, pbiviz compiles my sources without errors.

But I don't see anything on the developer's visual.

I put my code into try{} statement like:

                try {
                    let myChart: ECharts.ECharts;
                    myChart = ECharts.init(chartDiv);
                }
                catch(exc){
                    console.log(exc);
                }

Then I have got the error in console: ReferenceError: "ECharts is not defined"
Browser does not see a types/declarations. Why?
What do I wrong?
Thanks in advance...

    Please try to use window["ECharts"] || window.window["ECharts"]
