TypeScript - Modules - exporting and importing
Start
  Re-export

Typescript allow to re-export declarations.

//Operator.ts
interface Operator {
    eval(a: number, b: number): number;
}
export default Operator;


//Add.ts
import Operator from "./Operator";
export class Add implements Operator {
    eval(a: number, b: number): number {
        return a + b;
    }
}


//Mul.ts
import Operator from "./Operator";
export class Mul implements Operator {
    eval(a: number, b: number): number {
        return a * b;
    }
}

You can bundle all operations in single library

//Operators.ts
import {Add} from "./Add";
import {Mul} from "./Mul";

export {Add, Mul};

Named declarations can be re-exported using shorter syntax

//NamedOperators.ts
export {Add} from "./Add";
export {Mul} from "./Mul";

Default exports can also be exported, but no short syntax is available. Remember, only one default export per module is possible.

//Calculator.ts
export {Add} from "./Add";
export {Mul} from "./Mul";
import Operator from "./Operator";

export default Operator;

Possible is re-export of bundled import

//RepackedCalculator.ts
export * from "./Operators";

When re-exporting bundle, declarations may be overridden when declared explicitly.

//FixedCalculator.ts
export * from "./Calculator"
import Operator from "./Calculator";
export class Add implements Operator {
    eval(a: number, b: number): number {
        return 42;
    }
}

Usage example

//run.ts
import {Add, Mul} from "./FixedCalculator";

const add = new Add();
const mul = new Mul();

console.log(add.eval(1, 1)); // 42
console.log(mul.eval(3, 4)); // 12
  Hello world module

Load using directory index

If directory contains file named index.ts it can be loaded using only directory name (for index.ts filename is optional).

Example usage of defined modules
  Exporting/Importing declarations

Any declaration (variable, const, function, class, etc.) can be exported from module to be imported in other module.

Typescript offer two export types: named and default.

Named export

When importing named exports, you can specify which elements you want to import.

Default export

Each module can have one default export

which can be imported using

Bundled import

Typescript offers method to import whole module into variable
