[email protected] breaks typeorm

[thynson]

After upgrading tslib to 1.12, I get the following error message when requiring 'typeorm'(which requiring tslib@^1.9.0)

> require('typeorm')
Uncaught:
TypeError: Cannot set property EntityManager of #<Object> which has only a getter
    at Object.<anonymous> (/path/to/typeorm-test/node_modules/typeorm/index.js:120:23)
    at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1158:30)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1178:10)

    at require (internal/modules/cjs/helpers.js:77:18)

It seems like there's breaking changes in tslib.__exportStar() that defining getter instead of defining properties on target object. Resulting that once a symbol has already been exported by export * from './other-files' indirectly, the above error will be thrown when it is explicitly exported again in same file.

I have the same error. I tried to install [email protected] with yarn & npm, and checked the package.json file, but nothing really happened. I was still getting the same error. So was to see this.

Have you tried removing the node_modules and lockfile before downgrading tslib to ~1.11.2?

[georgekrax]

I solved it afterwards. Here is my full answer.

P.S. If you have solved the problem. please close the issue that you opened here.

I've solved it before submit this issue, but I think it's an accidential breaking change of tslib and they should fix it.

Fixed #107

[dyatko]

Is tslib even regression tested with the most popular TypeScript libraries?

[DanielRosenwasser]

1.13.0 is out and should fix things, 1.12.0 has been deprecated. 2.0.0 can be opted into for TypeScript 3.9 users.

@DanielRosenwasser [email protected] still fails typeorm/typeorm#6054 (comment)

[DanielRosenwasser]

@weswigham @rbuckton any clues?

[rbuckton]

This is the main reason: typeorm/typeorm#6054 (comment)

They have two lines in their index.ts file causing the issue:

https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/blob/defa9bced0b5d1258e4f50d5c590978e6d3324d3/src/index.ts#L105

export * from "./entity-manager/EntityManager";

https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/blob/defa9bced0b5d1258e4f50d5c590978e6d3324d3/src/index.ts#L141

export {EntityManager} from "./entity-manager/EntityManager";

We aren't tracking the re-export in the same way we do a local export:

https://www.typescriptlang.org/play/index.html?module=1#code/KYDwDg9gTgLgBAKjgMyhAtnARAOgPQQwAWwUWA3AFCiSxwDecAYhBHAL4pqa4HGkVq4aPADGAGwCGAZ2lwAQpKgN2QA

I think this is an issue for the compiler/emitter, not tslib. We really should also have something like an exports.Foo = void 0; assignment at the top of the file like we do for Bar, just so we don't attempt to re-export it later.

input

// @target: esnext
// @module: commonjs
// @importHelpers: true
export * from "./other";
export { Foo } from "./other";
export class Bar {}

actual output

"use strict";
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
exports.Bar = void 0;
const tslib_1 = require("tslib");
tslib_1.__exportStar(require("./other"), exports);
var other_1 = require("./other");
Object.defineProperty(exports, "Foo", { enumerable: true, get: function () { return other_1.Foo; } });
class Bar {
}
exports.Bar = Bar;

expected output

"use strict";
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
exports.Bar = exports.Foo = void 0;
//            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
const tslib_1 = require("tslib");
tslib_1.__exportStar(require("./other"), exports);
var other_1 = require("./other");
Object.defineProperty(exports, "Foo", { enumerable: true, get: function () { return other_1.Foo; } });
class Bar {
}
exports.Bar = Bar;
