ts(7016) error: The library may need to update its package.json or typings

[ronaldtveen]

I've been trying to get Momentum Trail working but I keep getting the follow error:

Could not find a declaration file for module 'momentum-trail'. '[..]/node_modules/momentum-trail/dist/momentum-trail.js' implicitly has an 'any' type. There are types at '[..]/node_modules/momentum-trail/dist/types/index.d.ts', but this result could not be resolved when respecting package.json "exports". The 'momentum-trail' library may need to update its package.json or typings.ts(7016)

While looking for a fix I see a couple of packages with this problem. I temporarily fixed it by adding a types/momentum-trail.d.ts with declare module 'momentum-trail'; as its content.
Problem with this is that it works locally, but when deploying it will error out.
A fix for that I read is to set the following in my jsconfig.json but that looks like a very nasty workaround that could have some other implications.

"compilerOptions": {
  "noImplicitAny": false
}

Can you fix this problem on your end, or at least document how to best go about this on the frontend for Vue 3 in the docs?

Opened a PR to fix this: lepikhinb/momentum-trail-helper#3

Meanwhile, if you use pnpm, you can use pnpm patch momentum-trail to patch the package yourself until the PR gets merged.
