server backend build fails

[sancelot]

Describe the bug
when building the backend , I have got an unexpected error.
I don't really understand since the backend works in development mode.
I suppose it is related to db entities.

I have not used a db, I am at the moment using json db

my entities are as follow :

import { Entity, Fields } from "remult";

@Entity("Features", {
  allowApiCrud: true,
})
export class Features {
  @Fields.cuid()
  id = "";

  @Fields.number()
  deltaA = 0;

  @Fields.number()
  Axis_0_2_Speed = 0;


  @Fields.createdAt()
  createdAt = new Date();
}

node_modules/remult/src/remult3/RepositoryImplementation.d.ts:193:5 - error TS2416: Property 'entityRef' in type 'FieldRefImplementation<entityType, valueType>' is not assignable to the same property in base type 'FieldRef<entityType, valueType>'.

Hi @sancelot , can you share with me the repo where you get this issue? my github handle is noamhonig

If not, can you create a small repo based on the tutorial where you can see this issue - I would be happy to see it first hand and solve it

Hi @sancelot, Sorry about that - I reviewed the issue and we're working on a fix that we'll probably be releasing next week, hopefully :)

In the meantime, please add the "skipLibCheck": true, setting to the server tsconfig

// tsconfig.server.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "experimentalDecorators": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "outDir": "dist",
    "skipLibCheck": true, // <- add this please 
    "rootDir": "src"
  },
  "include": ["src/server/**/*", "src/shared/**/*"]
}

Perfect - I also released a new version that should solve this issue (And added an automatic integration test to make sure it never happens again :)

You can try version:
0.25.8
