# Add Global Variable To Window

Sometimes you want to add global variable to your `window`. That thing's called global module augmentation.

Say you need to call `window.doFancyThings()`. For that you should augment global `window` interface in `*.d.ts` file:

    declare global {  interface Window {    doFancyThings: () => void;  }}

This is useful for declaring global `window.ethereum` (or `window.web3`) in blockchain projects with typescript, which use wallet browser extensions.

## Augmenting existing interface

For example, you have class `Sample` without any functionality:

    // Sample.tsexport class Sample {  // nothing :-)}

Then you want extend it with `doFancyThings()` method. That can be achieved with said module augmentation:

    // fancyThings.tsimport { Sample } from "./Sample";declare module "./Sample" {  interface Sample {    doFancyThings: () => void;  }}

Now you can call `sample.doFancyThings()` by importing both `.ts` files:

    import { Sample } from "./sample";import "./fancyThings";const sample = new Sample();sample.doFancyThings(); // ok

This example is useful for adding global properties to component in vue.js.
