Using with TypeScript?

[jsalonen]

I'm using TypeScript and would like to use longjohn conditionally just in dev mode. Documentation suggests using conditional require:

if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production'){
  require('longjohn');
}

However, TypeScript imports are restricted to top-level, making it impossible to do such conditional check without falling back to commonJS-style require.

There is also a related issue: #61 - having the ability to disable longjohn after require would be a sufficient fix.

Typescript support conditional loading.
See section Optional Module Loading and Other Advanced Loading Scenarios at https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/modules.html for details.
