Cannot find module 'graphql-request/build/esm/types' or its corresponding type declarations.ts

[frederikhors]

Upgrading today from "@sveltejs/kit": "1.30.0" to "@sveltejs/kit": "2.0.0" and deleting node_modules and package-lock.json, if I run npm install on typescript check I get:

Cannot find module 'graphql-request/build/esm/types' or its corresponding type declarations.ts (2307)

Why?

What should I use for this?

[frederikhors]

I tried with v7-next too, the problem is still there.

A workaround is to remove the exports from package.json.

Likely what is happening here is that SvelteKit is respecting the exports field, this restricts the paths you can import to what is defined there. This helps prevent leaking private implementation details to the public API.

You should not be importing from a subpath of the module, instead import it directly from the module itself:

import { GraphQLResponse } from 'graphql-request';

[frederikhors]

Dear @jonkoops, please reopen this issue. I tried everything, also the import you suggest:

import { GraphQLResponse } from 'graphql-request';

It's always an error!

[jonkoops]

Hmm, yeah you are right. It looks like we're currently not exporting these types. Re-opening.

As I wrote:

I'd rather fix the bug honestly.

Yeah, me too, but I don't know how.

[jonkoops]

This will be fixed by #636

[frederikhors]

@jonkoops Are you going to release this in a patch version?

[jonkoops]

No, this will be part of the next major version. You can install the next version if you want to try it out.

This is still happening on v 7.0.1 release a couple days ago

Are you importing from graphql-request directly, so no sub paths?

Same for me, after upgrading to v7.0.1 I've got the following TS error:

You're hitting this #845, it's a problem with your setup, not the library. I'll try to document it soon. PR welcome.
