Convert String to Readable in TypeScript

I want to do this: How to create streams from string in Node.Js? in TypeScript.

I tryed the folowing things:

import * as stream from 'stream'
dataStream = stream.Readable.from(["My String"])

This leads to the error:Property 'from' does not exist on type 'typeof Readable'.

import { Readable } from 'stream'
dataStream = Readable.from(["My String"])

This leads to the error:Property 'from' does not exist on type 'typeof Readable'.

I checked the stream.d.ts and the static method is there:

declare module "stream" {
    import * as events from "events";

    class internal extends events.EventEmitter {
        pipe<T extends NodeJS.WritableStream>(destination: T, options?: { end?: boolean; }): T;
    }

    namespace internal {
        class Stream extends internal {
            constructor(opts?: ReadableOptions);
        }

        interface ReadableOptions {
            highWaterMark?: number;
            encoding?: BufferEncoding;
            objectMode?: boolean;
            read?(this: Readable, size: number): void;
            destroy?(this: Readable, error: Error | null, callback: (error: Error | null) => void): void;
            autoDestroy?: boolean;
        }

        class Readable extends Stream implements NodeJS.ReadableStream {
            /**
             * A utility method for creating Readable Streams out of iterators.
             */
            static from(iterable: Iterable<any> | AsyncIterable<any>, options?: ReadableOptions): Readable;
...

So what am i missing here?

My tsconfig.json:

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "lib": [
          "es5",
          "es6",
          "es2019"
      ],
      "target": "es5",
      "moduleResolution": "node",
      "module": "commonjs",
      "declaration": true,
      "outDir": "./lib",

      "sourceMap": true
    },
    "include": ["src"],
    "exclude": ["node_modules", "**/__tests__/*"]
  }

my package.json:

{
  "name": "apprestservice",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "ts-node __tests__/index.ts",

The problem in the first place was that i had an old @types/node module installed i updated it and now it Works.

npm install @types/node

Here is the workaround that worked with the older Version:

import { Readable } from 'stream'
/* tslint:disable-next-line: no-string-literal */
const dataStream = Readable['from'](["My String"])
