Can't use external library in my app - module

Question

I created a Gui library that works fine when i test it from within the project. Now i want to use it as a library, for my sound generation application.
Seems simple, but i couldn't get anything despite many changes in my references or compiler options...
I use 1.6.2 version of typescript, target es5, use commonjs formodule in both tsconfig.json files . moduleResolution is classic.
I don't know if that matters, but i use experimentalDecorators and i output declaration file and inlined source map.
What i have so far is like (simplified version):
••• Library files •••
shapes.ts
shapes/rect.ts
shapes/roundrect.ts
shapes.ts is the main module. Since i've read that files are already modules, i did not use the modulekeyword.
// shapes.ts
/// <reference path="./shapes/rect.ts"/>
/// <reference path="./shapes/roundrect.ts"/>
export * from "./shapes/rect.ts";
export * from "./shapes/roundrect.ts"
--
// rect.ts
export class Rect {
x : number;
y : number;
...
}
--
// roundrect.ts
/// <reference path="./rect.ts"/>
import {Rect} from "./rect.ts";
export class RoundRect extends Rect {
cornerRadius : number;
...
}
••• App files •••
for the App file, i made many attemps, i would like to be able to write :
var MyRect = new Rect();
or :
var MyRect = new Shapes.Rect();
So i tried a lot of import syntax, since no two blogs or docs says the same about this syntax :
import * as Shapes from '../../shapes/dst/shapes';
Or
import Shapes = require('../../shapes/dst/shapes');
Or
import {Rect, RoundRect} from '../../shapes/dst/shapes';
Or
var Shapes = require('../../shapes/dst/shapes');
( Or all above examples from the src and not the dst folder) .
All those examples get marked as a wrong path in the editor.
I also tried all examples above with or without :
/// <reference path="../../shapes/rect.ts"/>
Rq the path is marked correct with reference, but when using a reference path, there are a lot of 'Cannot find module' errors.
So bottom line, i always get, for the module import, the same error :
Cannot find module '../../shapes/dst/shapes'
¿¿¿ How can i use my lib ???

If you have multiple classes exported inside a file, it makes sense to use a module.
If you'd rather export a class as a module itself, you can try export =
Example:
class RoundRect {
....
}
export = RoundRect;
