Hello,
I am trying to integrate CanvasJS into Angular 8 app, and it gives compile error as shown below.
PS C:\dev\projects\ngx1> ng serve

I have copied canvasjs.min.js into the same folder as my angular component and am importing it using:
import * as CanvasJS from './canvasjs.min';
I have tried creating a typings file canvasjs.min.d.ts in the same folder as my angular component, with the following declaration.
declare module 'canvasjs.min';
When I do this, I get a new compile error:
ERROR in src/app/components/trends/trends.component.ts(2,27): error TS2306: File 'C:/dev/projects/ngx1/src/app/components/trends/canvasjs.min.d.ts' is not a module.
I have downloaded your Angular 5 sample and can compile and run it without error. Is there some way to get this to work in Angular 8?
Thank You
.
