🐛 Bug Report

The latest version v7.0.0-rc.1 does not build

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Include the module by running the following command
npm install @elastic/elasticsearch --save

Expected behavior

Should build without any errors

However i get the following error
`> tsc

node_modules/@elastic/elasticsearch/lib/Connection.d.ts:77:3 - error TS1165: A computed property name in an ambient context must refer to an expression whose type is a literal type or a 'unique symbol' type.

77 [inspect.custom](object: any, options: InspectOptions): string;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
`

Your Environment

• node version: 8
• @elastic/elasticsearch version: >=7.0.0
• os: Mac
• typescript: 3.4.1
• tslint: 5.14.0

Other observations

Including @types/elasticsearch would solve the issue however the types support is only for version 5.0.23

Hello!
Did you installed @types/node?

npm i @types/node --save-dev

[jlausolutions]

I am seeing the same issue with @types/node latest installed.

[delvedor]

@jlausolutions can you write the following info?

• node version: ...
• @elastic/elasticsearch version: ...
• os: ...
• typescript: ...

[jlausolutions]

node: v10.0.0
@elastic/elasticsearch: ^7.0.0-rc.1
os: MacOS 10.13.6
typescript: ^3.4.2

[delvedor]

I just tried the following:

mkdir tstest && cd tstest
npm init -y
npm i @elastic/elasticsearch typescript @types/node
touch index.ts
./node_modules/.bin/tsc index.ts

index.ts contains the following:

import { Client } from '@elastic/elasticsearch'
const client = new Client({ node: 'http://localhost:9200' })
client.info(console.log)

And everything works as expected.
My system info are:

• node: v10.15.1
• @elastic/elasticsearch: ^7.0.0-rc.1
• os: MacOS 10.14.3
• typescript: ^3.4.2

I just tried updating node (v10.15.3) and ran the same commands you listed, but am seeing the same error:

node_modules/@elastic/elasticsearch/lib/Connection.d.ts:77:3 - error TS1165: A computed property name in an ambient context must refer to an expression whose type is a literal type or a 'unique symbol' type.

77   [inspect.custom](object: any, options: InspectOptions): string;

Note that it compiled if you run tsc index.ts immediately after touch index.ts, but throws the error after I add the actual index.ts code that includes the import.

Note that it compiled if you run tsc index.ts immediately after touch index.ts, but throws the error after I add the actual index.ts code that includes the import.

Sorry, I thought it was obvious, I compiled the file after writing the code.
Are you using some additional configuration in tsconfig.json?

[jlausolutions]

It was obvious -- I was just working backwards when it was still not working.

In any case, the issue was that I also had tsc installed globally and that was an older version (3.1.3). This could be identified when comparing your line ./node_modules/.bin/tsc index.ts instead of tsc index.ts.

Thanks!

Hello @lazaro9318!
Can you create a repository with everything needed to reproduce the issue?
Thanks!

[alanjames1987]

I'm also having the same problem. It looks just importing Client will cause the error. The problem also happens with version 5.6.16 and 6.7.0.

@delvedor here is a repo that will case the error when building.

https://github.com/alanjames1987/Elasticsearch-TypeScript-Error

Pull it, run npm i, and then run npm run build:prod to trigger the error.

Additionally, I'm using Node v10.15.3, but since this is TypeScript I doubt it's caused by a problem with Node, but giving more information never hurts.

I solve the error, deleting the node_modules folder and installing again.
