Just following the steps from
https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-nodejs-client/tree/master/src/apis/calendar
for building a browser bundle

clone the repo => ok
then
$ cd src/apis/calendar
$ npm install

I get this error :

@google/calendar@0.1.0 prepare /home/mick/projects/google-api-nodejs-client/src/apis/calendar
npm run compile

@google/calendar@0.1.0 compile /home/mick/projects/google-api-nodejs-client/src/apis/calendar
tsc -p .

Hi there,

Is this issue still persisting? Can you confirm that you have the latest version? Afterwards, I would just recommend clearing out node_modules and then re-installing.

I have removed the node_modules folder, but the error persists when running "npm install" inside the src/apis/calendar/ folder.
I have the latest version since I have pulled the repo. Thank you for your help.

Hmm, I'm not able to reproduce the issue. Have you tried running npm i on the top-level folder as well? Can you also confirm you are on the latest version of this library? Thanks!

Closing this as we upgraded recently to webpack 5.
