🤓 Usage

To make these types detectable, you need to add the types property below to tsconfig.json on each side of your project.

// e.g server-side
{
 "compilerOptions": {
  "types": ["{RELATIVE_PATH_TO_NODE_MODULES}/@ragempcommunity/types-server"]
 }
}

SERVER-SIDE - CLIENT-SIDE - CEF

❌ Avoiding Conflict between Server <-> Client Types

To avoid conflicts between server and client types, they must be installed and set as follows:

Step #1: install the types in package.json from the project root

> npm i --save-dev @ragempcommunity/types-server
> npm i --save-dev @ragempcommunity/types-client

Step #2: for this step, your project should be structured as follows:

├───my-awesome-ragemp-server
│   └───src
│        # Server - Contains code relating to the database, player spawning, etc.
│        # Client - Contains code to display things to the user and do things to them.
│         ├───client
│          │   ├───@types
│          │   │   └───index.d.ts
│          │   ├───src
│          │   └───tsconfig.json
│          │
│         server
│    │   ├───@types
│     │   │   └───index.d.ts
│          │   ├───src
│          │   └───tsconfig.json
│          └───
├───package.json
└───tsconfig.base.json

Now that we know what our server structure should look like, let's start setting the types properly.

1. tsconfig.base.json - this is our base tsconfig, from which we extend the client/server part (to avoid making redundant code)

{
 "exclude": ["node_modules", "dist"],
 "compileOnSave": true,
 "compilerOptions": {
  "target": "esnext",
  "module": "esnext",
  "moduleResolution": "node",
  "lib": ["es6", "esnext", "DOM"],
  "rootDir": ".",
  "outDir": "dist",
  "baseUrl": "./"
 }
}

2. client/tsconfig.json - this is our tsconfig for the client side, extended from the basic tsconfig and containing the types for the client

{
 // NOTE: This tsconfig will work assuming your project is structured as described above.
 "extends": "../../tsconfig.base.json",
 "compilerOptions": {
  // [RELATIVE_PATH_TO_NODE_MODULES]/@ragempcommunity/types-client
  "types": ["../../node_modules/@ragempcommunity/types-client", "./@types"]
 },
 "include": ["./**/*.ts"]
}

3. server/tsconfig.json - this is our tsconfig for the server side, extended from the basic tsconfig and containing the types for the server

{
 // NOTE: This tsconfig will work assuming your project is structured as described above.
 "extends": "../../tsconfig.base.json",
 "compilerOptions": {
  // [RELATIVE_PATH_TO_NODE_MODULES]/@ragempcommunity/types-server
  "types": ["../../node_modules/@ragempcommunity/types-server", "./@types"]
 },
 "include": ["./**/*.ts"]
}

For those who didn't understand, I made a gamemode from which you can better orient yourself:

ragemp-typescript & ragemp-javascript
