How do I install typescript definitions for Electron?

Question

I have two problems:

• Which definitions should I install? typings search electron returns quite a few results.

• How do I install them? typings install dt~github-electron --global --save gives me an error:

  Attempted to compile "github-electron" as an external module, but it looks like a global module. You'll need to enable the global option to continue.

The source needs to be set to dt and it seems to work just fine.

$ typings install github-electron --source dt --global
