Typechain glob not matching to files on windows

[zemse]

The repo contains the following script for typechain.

"typechain": "typechain --target ethers-v5 --outDir build/typechain 'build/artifacts/**/*.json'"

This generates typechain outputs on macos, linux but on windows the glob matches to 0 files and hence doesn't generate any typings file.

I've created a github workflow seperate jobs for macos-latest, ubuntu-latest and windows-latest. There the tests pass for macos, ubuntu while fail for windows giving typescript error (which is that it didn't find a typing file).

I m facing the same issue
I m using this
typechain --target truffle './build/**/*.json'
although currently I have booted a linux distro but I hope this gets fixed.
Typings files are generated but they don't have any contract interfaces generated correctly

I found a workaround is to remove the single quotes of the glob matching path, just use like

typechain --target truffle-v5 build/contracts/**/*.json

Use this for both linux and windows support \" in package.json

typechain --target truffle-v5 \"build/contracts/**/*.json\"

This doesn't seem to a TypeChain bug but rather a Windows oddity.

Closing for now. If someone has an idea how we can improve this on our side LMK.
