title: How to use a module when it could not find a declaration file
body: <p>I have a typescript project using node.js. There is a module i want to use npm package country-code-lookup. </p>
  
  <p>The problem is it does not have a supporting types declaration for it. However, i'd still like to use it.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible i could still use this package without the typings.</p>
  
  <pre><code>import * as CountryCodeLookup from "country-code-lookup";
  
     const countryCodes = CountryCodeLookup.countries;
     console.log(countryCodes);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the following error when typescript attempts to compile. </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>TS7016: Could not find a declaration file for module
    'country-code-lookup'.
    '/Users/kay/portal/node_modules/country-code-lookup/index.js'
    implicitly has an 'any' type.
          Try <code>npm install @types/country-code-lookup</code> if it exists or add a new declaration (.d.ts) file containing <code>declare module
    'country-code-lookup';</code></p>
