[WalterLeinert]

Hi Romain,

I'm trying do play around with your library. But installation fails.

Environment:

• Windows10, x64
• cygwin, vscode
• node v7.0.0, npm: 3.10.9
• typescript 2.0.3

when i run the command:
npm install --save ts-express-decorators

I get the following errors:

(regards, Walter)

Same

[fobosby]

The same.
Looks like an issue with dependent library.

[Romakita]

I found a similar problem here DefinitelyTyped/DefinitelyTyped#12044
I work on the fix ;)

[Romakita]

It's fix with v1.0.1 :)
