node_modules/@types/request-promise/errors.d.ts(1,21): error TS2307: Cannot find module '.'.

import rp = require('.');
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^

I am getting this error as well.

A workaround is to edit node_modules/@types/request-promise/errors.d.ts such that import rp = require('.'); becomes import rp = require('request-promise');.

@Jack-Works
in your tsconfig.json file, you have to set the following compiler option:

  "compilerOptions": {
      "moduleResolution": "node"
  }

or run tsc with that flag : tsc --moduleResolution node
