Type definitions for the Scratch VM and editor

Scratch doesn't provide type definitions for their libraries, so we wrote our own.

This repository only contains types for the vanilla (LLK) Scratch runtime and editor. For the additional types in the TurboWarp runtimes, see @turbowarp/types-tw.

A possibly more human-readable version of the TypeScript definitions can be found at: https://turbowarp.github.io/types/

Module Status
scratch-vm
scratch-render
scratch-svg-renderer
scratch-render-fonts
scratch-audio
scratch-storage
scratch-parser
scratch-blocks 🚧
scratch-gui redux
scratch-paint redux
scratch-www redux

Using from npm

First, install the types:

npm install @turbowarp/types

Next, you must use tsconfig.json to configure TypeScript to know how to find the types.

{
"compilerOptions": {
// If you use require() or "module": "CommonJS", remove these lines.
// If you use "module": "ES6", synthetic default imports are required.
"module": "ES6",
"allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,

// Tell TypeScript where to find the types for Scratch libraries.
"paths": {
"scratch-vm": ["./node_modules/@turbowarp/types/index.d.ts"],
"scratch-render": ["./node_modules/@turbowarp/types/index.d.ts"],
"scratch-svg-renderer": ["./node_modules/@turbowarp/types/index.d.ts"],
"scratch-render-fonts": ["./node_modules/@turbowarp/types/index.d.ts"],
"scratch-storage": ["./node_modules/@turbowarp/types/index.d.ts"],
"scratch-audio": ["./node_modules/@turbowarp/types/index.d.ts"],
"scratch-parser": ["./node_modules/@turbowarp/types/index.d.ts"],
"scratch-blocks": ["./node_modules/@turbowarp/types/index.d.ts"]
},

// Recommended strictness settings. Change as you please.
"strictNullChecks": true,
"noImplicitAny": true,
"noImplicitThis": true
}
}

Then in your JavaScript or TypeScript:

import VM from 'scratch-vm';
const vm = new VM();
vm.loadProject(/* read a project somehow */ new ArrayBuffer(100))
.then(() => {
vm.start();
vm.greenFlag();
});

Or if you still use require():

const VM = require('scratch-vm');
const vm = new VM();
vm.loadProject(/* read a project somehow */ new ArrayBuffer(100))
.then(() => {
vm.start();
vm.greenFlag();
});

Tests

There are some tests in the tests folder. These files are never actually run, but the code will be type checked.
