- [ ] I am willing to submit a pull request for this issue.
The correct usage of this feature is to not export the type Edit: I was wrong actually
Got it. To clarify I exported it to stop the @typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars rule from complaining, what should I do instead? Should I just configure the rule to not apply for this type in astro files?
Yes, suppressing the error is what I'm doing now, with // eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars, but I was wondering if there was a better way to handle this.
I opened the issue because the error message seemed to me like a weird one, thought it might be a bug, but feel free to close if this is expected. Thanks!
This seems to be a compiler bug, maybe something to do with the export + the generic argument confusing the compiler?
@Princesseuh Yeah that sounds right. I recall seeing this error message on generic types before 🤷
Moving to the compiler repo. fwiw, removing the export makes it work. Exporting Props is unnecessary (it does nothing for editor tooling and never has) and generally unwanted, so I consider this a good workaround in this case. The Astro ESLint plugin should handle this better.
