deckgl-typings

TypeScript declaration files for deck.gl

This is a work in progress - see the issues list

npm install @danmarshall/deckgl-typings

These will automatically appear in your projects node_modules/@types folder, thanks to indefinitely-typed.

Then it is possible to link the mappings in your project so typescript can find them (since the project is not in @types yet).

Create a new file like deckgl.d.ts (although it could be named anything ending in .d.ts) in your src/ directory with the following code:

import * as DeckTypings from "@danmarshall/deckgl-typings"
declare module "deck.gl" {
    export namespace DeckTypings {}
}

Version mapping

deck.gl version	deckgl-typings version
5.x.x	1.x.x
6.x.x	2.x.x
7.x.x	3.x.x
8.x.x	4.x.x

Known issues

These typings are now v4 which targets deck.gl v8. The following issues are changes to v8 from deck.gl v7 which have not been added to these typings:

• It is now possible to replace a layer's accessors with binary data attributes.
• GPU filtering for layers - Adds a getFilterValue to some layers.
• Optional specifying the _framebuffer prop of Deck.
• Pick a 3d surface point in the scene by passing unproject3D: true to deck.pickObject or deck.pickMultipleObjects.
• ArcLayer supports drawing arcs between two 3D positions
• 64-bit positions are now 3D instead of 2D
• FirstPersonView now supports pitch
• FlyToInterpolator now supports duration: 'auto'.

🙏

Thanks to the community of contributors for adding many typings over the last few months. Please feel free to continue fixes for the above or any other issues. 🥂
