I’m building an Angular app and using the Smart DateTimePicker component
In my Typescript file within IntelliJ editor ,  I’m getting an “TS2503: Cannot find namespace ‘Smart’.” error when Typescript is compiled

import {Component, OnDestroy, OnInit} from '@angular/core';
import {TaskUiMediator} from '../mediators/task.ui.mediator';
import {faArrowAltCircleLeft, faArrowAltCircleRight} from '@fortawesome/pro-light-svg-icons';
import {Smart} from 'smart-webcomponents-angular/datetimepicker';
import {TaskViewsService} from '../common/task-views.service';
import {TaskFilterMediator} from '../mediators/task.filter.mediator';
import {BehaviorSubject, Observable, Subscription} from 'rxjs';
import {DateFilterUtil} from '../mediators/DateFilterUtil';
import {DateUtil} from '../common/DateUtil';
@Component({
  selector: 'app-task-week',
  templateUrl: './task-week.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./task-week.component.css']
})
export class TaskWeekComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
  public viewId = TaskViewsService.TASK_VIEW_WEEK;
  iconLeft = faArrowAltCircleLeft;
  iconRight = faArrowAltCircleRight;
  pageSize = 1000;
  private dateValueSubject = new BehaviorSubject<Smart.Utilities.DateTime>(new Smart.Utilities.DateTime(DateUtil.today()));

Hi davout,
There is not ‘Smart.Utilities.DateTime’ in ‘Smart’ typescript defs. That is the reason you’re getting typescript error.

Ok, so what ‘import’ and class name should be used in the TS file?

Hi davout,
We have multiple online demos for this component which show how to use it with Angular. You may look at them here: https://www.htmlelements.com/angular/demos/datetimepicker/overview/. You can also edit samples in Stackblitz.

Nowhere in those demos does it include a reference to a ‘DateTime’ class instance in the TS code – I’ve been through all of them!
So I will repeat my question,  if I am including a reference to ‘DateTime’ what import statement does this require?

Hi davout,
There is no import for Smart.Utilities.DateTime because it is not used anywhere. Such Typescript definition does not exist.

So how do I point to the source of the DateTime class in my TypeScript code?

Hi davout,
You do not need to use the DateTime class in order to use DatetimePicker. The examples clearly show how you can use the component and get/set dates to it. This class is internally used and for Angular it is not part of the public API.

That is not true – unless our docs are wrong!
The ‘DateTimePicker’ has a ‘value’ property that is an instance of DateTime
See:  m https://www.htmlelements.com/angular/demos/datetimepicker/overview/#toc-value_any

Hi davout,
In future versions of the library, we will add a new Angular example of our DateTimePicker and expose additional API options. Again, Typescript definitions are not available for what you try to use. They do not exist.

Your answer does not address my question…
I want to set a value against the DateTimePicker.value’ property, how is that done?

Hi davout,
Your question was about a Typescript error and the answer is that such error is raised, because there is no such Typescript API. The DateTimePicker accepts Javascript Date object. You can set the ‘value’ prop to a Javascript date.
