Definitelytyped: [@types/config] config.get is not a function

If you know how to fix the issue, make a pull request instead.

• [x] I tried using the @types/config package and had problems.
• [x] I tried using the latest stable version of tsc. https://www.npmjs.com/package/typescript
• [ ] I have a question that is inappropriate for StackOverflow. (Please ask any appropriate questions there).
• [x] [Mention](https://github.com/blog/821-mention-somebody-they-re-notified) the authors (see Definitions by: in index.d.ts) so they can respond.

I was using before([email protected]):

import * as config from "config";
config.get("key")

but, there is error in current version as follow:

TypeError: config.get is not a function

Can you check this?

[BendingBender]

You have to import this module like this:

import config = require("config");

You can check here for more infos about the _why_.

@BendingBender
I read it but that solution is seems like a kind of expedient.
Impossible to solve it TS grammarly?

[BendingBender]

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean. Did you try the solution? Did it work for you?

[seonggukchoi]

Yeah, it does work, but I want to run too:

import * as config from "config";

[BendingBender]

Then use either the --allowSyntheticDefaultImports or --esModuleInterop compiler option.

@BendingBender Thank you very much!
