Is there a way to access "exports" object in TypeScript modules?

Question

I am trying to use durandal and I need to getModuleId by passing the current module. My problem is that as I am using TypeScript, the underlaying object which is returned from AMD module seems not to be accessible by Typescript code:

export function checkModule(){
       var a = system.getModuleId(??);
}

the compiled TS will be converted into this:

function checkModule(){
     var a = system.getModule(??);
}
exports.checkModule = checkModule;

instead of ?? I need to pass exports object which is defined in compiled TS. Is there anyway to do that or there is a much simple way? thanks

The following is what I use. You are saying "There is an exports variable out there" ... and well there is :)

declare var exports; 
var thisModule = exports;
