All,
I have build a custom visual that works as expected. Now I am trying to use the formatting utility and have following all the intructions in the link https://github.com/Microsoft/powerbi-visuals-utils-formattingutils/blob/HEAD/docs/usage/installation.... I have followed every single step in this guide but when I try to import the valueFormatter, I get the error "Namespace powerbi.extensibility has no exported member utils"
//pbiviz.json
"externalJS": [
"node_modules/powerbi-visuals-utils-typeutils/lib/index.js",
"node_modules/powerbi-visuals-utils-dataviewutils/lib/index.js",
"node_modules/powerbi-visuals-utils-formattingutils/lib/index.js"
]//tsconfig.json
{
"compilerOptions": {
"allowJs": false,
"emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
"experimentalDecorators": true,
"target": "es6",
"sourceMap": true,
"outDir": "./.tmp/build/",
"moduleResolution": "node",
"declaration": true,
"lib": [
"es2015",
"dom"
]
},
"files": [
"./src/visual.ts",
"node_modules/powerbi-visuals-utils-typeutils/lib/index.d.ts",
"node_modules/powerbi-visuals-utils-dataviewutils/lib/index.d.ts",
"node_modules/powerbi-visuals-utils-formattingutils/lib/index.d.ts"
]
}
I am sure I am doing something wrong, and would appreciate if you could help me fix this
Thanks
Nishant
