Issues with export type

[judithhartmann]

Hi,
i want to upgrade react-scripts from 4.0.3 to 5.0.0.
typescript version is 4.2.4

After upgrading I get a lot of issues like this:

export 'InterfaceA' (reexported as 'InterfaceA') was not found in './abc/t' (possible exports: YYYY, __esModule)

even though InterfaceA is there. I tried to fix it with using export type on the reexport, as i read that is way to fix the error.

Unfortunately, after this I get the following error:

Module parse failed: Unexpected token (6:7)
File was processed with these loaders:
 * ./node_modules/source-map-loader/dist/cjs.js
You may need an additional loader to handle the result of these loaders.
| export { ApiConfiguration, RefreshStrategy } from './src/api/interfaces';
| //Auth
> export type {

It seems it cannot handle the export type it wanted... what do i do now?

Did you solve this? Im getting the same error

It's been a while.

I think in the end, it was fixed by changing the structure of the package that caused the error
The new structure had the created .js files no longer in the same location as the original .ts files

Before it was like this:

src
- file.ts
index.ts

after tsc:

src
- file.ts
- file.d.ts
- file.js
index.ts
index.d.ts
index.js

i changed the package to have a separate dist folder and the problem disappeared:

src
- file.ts
- index.ts
dist
- file.js
- file.d.ts
- index.js
- index.d.ts
