Dev Diaries #2 - Module layout for easy imports

easy-imports.ts

// The type reference is so wordy!  This isn't convenient.
import Types from '@eximchain/dappbot-types';
const args: Types.Methods.Auth.Login.Args = { ... };


// We can make the reference more compact by importing a
// more specific slice of the overall types.
import Auth from '@eximchain/dappbot-types/spec/methods';
const args: Auth.Login.Args = { ... };

// The narrowest import is grabbing specific values from
// the sub-module, like the Login namespace
import { Login } from '@eximchain/dappbot-types/spec/methods/auth';
const args: Login.Args = { ... };


// This isn't a valid import.  If users could reference
// these names without their grouping namespace, the
// code wouldn't read as well:
import { Args, Path } from '@eximchain/dappbot-types/spec/methods/auth/login';

// ... Lots of code

// Later in the file: but *which* Args is this?
const args:Args = { ... }
