Unknown type TextDecoder in node.js TS project

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Describe the bug
With node.js-only TS project (no "dom" in "lib") can't build.
Type TextDecoder is from DOM.

To Reproduce
tsconfig.json without dom lib, like this:

{
	"compilerOptions": {
		"target": "ES2019",
		"module": "commonjs",
		"lib": [
			"es2019",
			"es2020.bigint",
			"es2020.string",
			"es2020.symbol.wellknown"
		],
		
		"strict": true,
		
		"noUnusedLocals": true,
		"noUnusedParameters": true,
		"noImplicitReturns": true,
		"noFallthroughCasesInSwitch": true,
		"forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
		
		"moduleResolution": "node",
		"resolveJsonModule": true,
		"isolatedModules": true,
		"allowSyntheticDefaultImports": false,
		"esModuleInterop": false,
		
		"noEmitOnError": true,
		"newLine": "LF",
		"removeComments": true,
		"declaration": false,
		"sourceMap": false,
		"importHelpers": false,
		
		"outDir": "./build",
		"rootDir": "./src"
	},
	"typeAcquisition": {
		"include": [
			"node"
		]
	},
	"include": [
		"./src/**/*.ts",
		"./types/**/*.d.ts"
	]
}

Can't build project, TypeScript error:

node_modules/sax-wasm/lib/saxWasm.d.ts:77:25 - error TS2304: Cannot find name 'TextDecoder'.

Node.js 12.18.0
TypeScript 3.9.5
@types/node 14.0.13

Workaround — add type like this type TextDecoder = never;.

Thanks for the report @Avol-V ! I'll get this one handled....
