i get this error whenever i try to add a function to the global nodejs global namsepace in a TypeScript environment.
Element implicitly has an 'any' type because type 'typeof globalThis' has no index signature
declaring the global namespace
declare global {
namespace NodeJS {
interface Global {
signin(): string[]
}
}
}
so if i try this
global.signin = () => {}
it returns a
Element implicitly has an 'any' type because type 'typeof globalThis' has no index signature
in my own case i didn't quite realize until later that the global namespace i declared was case sensitive.
instead of this. before my question was edited it was namespace NODEJS
declare global {
namespace NODEJS {
interface Global {
signin(): string[]
}
}
}
it was supposed to be this
declare global {
namespace NodeJS {
interface Global {
signin(): string[]
}
}
}
pay attention to NODEJS and NodeJS
. After i made these changes, typescript was cool with it and it work the way i expected it to.
