When using Typescript with pg-promise, I am facing an issue where I can't import the classes and enums as I normally would. Typically, when working with a library, I import a type, use it, and everything functions properly. However, in the snippet below, I am attempting to create a "mode" for my transactions by importing TransactionMode and isolationLevel, but they are showing up as undefined at runtime (despite no errors during design time and compile time). It's worth noting that esModuleInterop is set to true in my tsconfig.json.
import pgPromise, { isolationLevel, TransactionMode } from "pg-promise";
const pgp = pgPromise();
// This workaround seems to resolve the issue, even though it's not clear why it's needed.
// const { TransactionMode, isolationLevel } = pgp.txMode;
// Issue arises here where TransactionMode and isolationLevel are imported but undefined
const mode = new TransactionMode({ tiLevel: isolationLevel.serializable });
(...)
This adds unnecessary complexity to my code, rather than being able to directly utilize the names.
