getting error Property '...' does not exist on type 'typeof "...."'

I am developing an app in node js using typescript and use the gulp transpiler in commonjs mode.

I have wrote a homeController.ts as:

let homeController={
     getIndex:(req,res)=>{
        res.send('Hello world'); //Compiles the file named "index" in the views directory (`/views`) using the view engine (Jade).
    },
}
export default homeController;

and i have a separate route file for routing as route.ts

import  home  =require('../controller/homeController');
import express = require('express');

let router = express.Router();

router.get('/',home.getIndex);

module.exports = router;

and import it in server file as

import  routes = require('./routes/route');

and route it as 

app.use('/api', routes);

but when gulp compile these file it give the error

enter image description here

please correct me if i'm doing any mistake.

Your homeController.ts file exports an object with the shape { default: { getIndex: ... } }. It does not have a top-level getIndex property.

You probably want to use export = homeController instead of export default homeController. They are not equivalent.
