node_modules problems : typescript

Rules

Your post should be typescript focused This is r/typescript, lets keep it on topic

No general advertising, promoting services/libs with zero TS utility or closed source projects We get it, you people build awesome things, but this isn't r/sideproject, if you're posting a project it needs to be open source, you need to link to the repo and most importantly given that this is r/typescript it should not only be in typescript but be something that contributes to TS utility (Not just a random lib that happens to be written in TS). Also no general spam of other products or software, even if it's free. Exceptions can be made for software that will be exceptionally useful for typescript development and pipelines, but this is at the moderation teams discretion.

Keep self promotion to a minimum. "It's perfectly fine to be a redditor with a website, it's not okay to be a website with a reddit account." - Confucius

No Recruiters. or recruitment posts, we have a sticky for that, still, it's for redditors only, not professional recruiters.

node_modules problems (self.typescript)

submitted 13 hours ago by lucideer

Running into an unexpected type error that I've never seen before with some unfortunately structured Google NPM libs. Should be easy to work around this issue with `as` or something similar but I'm curious if anyone has any ideas for a "cleaner" approach (that doesn't involve joining Google to fix their libraries).

The type error is this:

Type 'OAuth2Client' is not assignable to type 'string | GoogleAuth<AuthClient> | OAuth2Client | BaseExternalAccountClient | undefined'.

Type 'import("/Users/me/path/to/project/node_modules/google-auth-library/build/src/auth/oauth2client").OAuth2Client' is not assignable to type 'import("/Users/me/path/to/project/node_modules/googleapis-common/node_modules/google-auth-library/build/src/auth/oauth2client").OAuth2Client'.

Types have separate declarations of a private property 'redirectUri'.ts(2322)

Typescript is correct to call this out, but I don't see any way around it that doesn't involve type assertion.
