I want to use some function of my sample.js file which is located in my src folder:

var jsdata = new Object();
jsdata.getItem = function (pType, pIndex) {
    ...
};

Now in my controller typescript file I want to access this:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { IonicPage, NavController, NavParams, AlertController } from 'ionic-angular';

@IonicPage()
@Component({
  selector: 'page-test',
  templateUrl: 'test.html',
})
export class TestPage {
  item: any[];

  constructor(public navCtrl: NavController, public navParams: NavParams) {
    this.item = jsdata.getItem('A', 1); 
  }

  ionViewDidLoad() {
    console.log('ionViewDidLoad TestPage');
  }
}

But jsdata is unkonwn. How to fix this?

Thats very unusual. The angular way is to create a provider with the function(s) and inject in your component – Suraj Rao Nov 11 '17 at 12:49
sample.js has been created by you or is it an external library ? – Antikhippe Nov 11 '17 at 12:58
It was created by me. – gurehbgui Nov 11 '17 at 15:46
I think you should write it like a node_module and import it like other module. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27417107/how-use-an-external-non-typescript-library-from-typescript-without-d-ts – Duannx Nov 13 '17 at 02:57
