@Types/Sequelize Error TS1086: An accessor cannot be declared in ambient context

Question

I have a project that shows this error when I run 'tsc':

../modules/node_modules/sequelize/types/lib/transaction.d.ts:33:14 - error TS1086: An accessor cannot be declared in an ambient context.

33   static get LOCK(): LOCK;
                ~~~~

../modules/node_modules/sequelize/types/lib/transaction.d.ts:40:7 - error TS1086: An accessor cannot be declared in an ambient context.

40   get LOCK(): LOCK;
         ~~~~

My versions are:

• "@types/sequelize": "^4.28.6"
• "sequelize": "^5.8.10"
• "sequelize-typescript": "1.0.0-beta.4"

The project works fine with nodemon but fails when I try to compile the typescript. Anyone knows this error?

Thanks.

Answer 1

I have Angular 8. it is working with typescript version of 3.4.5. so solve this issue do below steps.

step 1) go to the tsconfig.json file

step 2) add skipLibCheck: true in "compilerOptions" object. It works for me.

"compilerOptions": {
    "module": "commonjs",
    "moduleResolution": "node",
    "strict": true,
    "target": "es5",
    "declaration": true,
    "declarationDir": "dist-debug/",
    "skipLibCheck": true, /// Needs to be true to fix wrong alias types being used

  },
