[cube-client-core] TypeError: cube is not a function

[mauriciocirelli]

Problem

We have a typescript project which we import cube-client-core library.
We are trying to instantiate it as documented:

import cube, { CubeApi } from '@cubejs-client/core';

const cubeApi = cube(token, {
  apiUrl: `${process.env.CUBEJS_API_URL}/cubejs-api/v1`,
});

The project compiles fine with tsc command.
However, during runtime, when this code is called, we get the following error:

TypeError: cube is not a function

We are struggling with that as we cant figure it out.
Logging the cube() function with JSON.stringnify gives us something weird:

{"DEFAULT_GRANULARITY":"day","GRANULARITIES":[{"title":"w/o grouping"},{"name":"second","title":"Second"},{"name":"minute","title":"Minute"},{"name":"hour","title":"Hour"},{"name":"day","title":"Day"},{"name":"week","title":"Week"},{"name":"month","title":"Month"},{"name":"quarter","title":"Quarter"},{"name":"year","title":"Year"}]}

It seems it is holding the entire module and the default export is not working properly.

This is our tsconfig file:

{
  "extends": "@tsconfig/node-lts/tsconfig.json",
  "compilerOptions": {
    /* Visit https://aka.ms/tsconfig to read more about this file */

    "rootDir": "./src",
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "sourceMap": true,
    "moduleResolution": "nodenext",
  },
}

We are pretty sure we are missing something on the tsconfig, but cant find out what it is...

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you!
