ecmascript 6 - TypeScript | Array.from | error TS2339: Property 'from' does not exist on type 'ArrayConstructor' -

i googling, cannot find information , how should add project allow me using es6 methods array.from

__ edit: removed prototype word

you can extend existing types so:

interface array {     from(arraylike: any, mapfn?, thisarg?): array<any>; } 

the problem here add function array instances , not static function require.
can done so:

interface arrayconstructor {     from(arraylike: any, mapfn?, thisarg?): array<any>; } 

then should able use array.from.

try out on playground.

edit

if need polyfill implementation (because environment in intend run doesn't have it), how:

interface arrayconstructor {     from(arraylike: any, mapfn?, thisarg?): array<any>; }  array.from = function(arraylike: any, mapfn?, thisarg?): array<any> {     // place code mdn here } 

the polyfill code in mdn.

2nd edit

based on comment, i'm adding typed version:

interface arrayconstructor {     from<t, u>(arraylike: arraylike<t>, mapfn: (v: t, k: number) => u, thisarg?: any): array<u>;     from<t>(arraylike: arraylike<t>): array<t>; } 

it's exact copy of how it's defined in lib.es6.d.ts.
