How to disable a ts rule for a specific line?

Question

Summernote is a jQuery plugin, and I don\'t need type definitions for it. I just want to modify the object, but TS keeps throwing errors. The line bellow still gives me:

Answer 1

You can use /* tslint:disable-next-line */ to locally disable tslint. However, as this is a compiler error disabling tslint might not help.

You can always temporarily cast $ to any:

delete ($ as any).summernote.options.keyMap.pc.TAB

which will allow you to access whatever properties you want.

Edit: As of Typescript 2.6, you can now bypass a compiler error/warning for a specific line:

if (false) {
    // @ts-ignore: Unreachable code error
    console.log("hello");
}

Note that the official docs "recommend you use [this] very sparingly". It is almost always preferable to cast to any instead as that better expresses intent.
