I've been googling and searching everywhere and couldn't find an answer.
I'm just a little familiar with Typescript. Started working on my GraphQL NodeJS server and wanted to use Typescript for safer and easier coding.
The first thing needed to be done is set the current JS version to ES6 and so I did.
In addition I set my tsconfig
that way:
{
"compilerOptions": {
"module": "es6",
"target": "es6",
"noImplicitAny": false,
"outDir": "./build",
"sourceMap": true
},
"exclude": [
"node_modules"
]
}
my index.js
import * as express from 'express';
import * as graphqlHTTP from 'express-graphql';
import {Schema} from './src/schema/Schema';
const PORT = 3000;
const app = express();
const graphqlOption: graphqlHTTP.OptionsObj = {
schema: new Schema().getSchema(),
pretty: true,
graphiql: true
};
app.use('/graphql', graphqlHTTP(graphqlOption));
app.listen(PORT, ()=> {
console.log("listening on PORT 3000");
});
When running this I'm getting
SyntaxError: unexpected token import
also, when hovering the const graphqlOption: graphqlHTTP.OptionsObj
I get
Types are not supported by the current JavaScript version
Please help, what am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
Wanted it to be clear that when I'm using a simple var express = require('express')
I do not get this unexpected token and it moves to the next line
Go to:
File -> Settings -> Languages -> JavaScript
And enable ES6.
