Closed

Description

@akdor1154

TypeScript Version: 2.3

When checkJS is enabled, requireing a JSON file in a js src file is treated as an error.

Code

const config = require('./config.json');

Expected behavior:
config is treated as a var of type any, or for bonus points, an anonymous interface with the shape as defined in the relevant JSON file.
Actual behavior:
error TS2307: Cannot find module './config.json'.
