VSCode Pa11y and typescript - /node_modules/.pnpm/@cypress-audit+pa11y@1.4.2/node_modules/@cypress-audit/pa11y/index.d.ts' is not a module

[mark0203]

What does not work?
In Visual studio code, I get this message "File 'C:/PROJ/Cypress_Typescript_Pa11y/node_modules/.pnpm/@cypress-audit+pa11y@1.4.2/node_modules/@cypress-audit/pa11y/index.d.ts' is not a module.ts(2306)"

How to reproduce?
I've used an empty cypress Typescript framework like this one: https://github.com/mark0203/ta_docs/tree/main/CYPRESS/Cypress_Typescript_empty_framework

• pnpm install --save-dev @cypress-audit/pa11y
• support/commands.ts has this: import "@cypress-audit/pa11y/commands";
• The e2e specfile looks like this

describe('template', () => {
  it('simplest test', () => {
    cy.visit('/')
    cy.pa11y()
  })
})

• cypress.config.ts looks like this and has an issue on line 2
  • File 'C:/PROJ/Cypress_Typescript_Pa11y/node_modules/.pnpm/@cypress-audit+pa11y@1.4.2/node_modules/@cypress-audit/pa11y/index.d.ts' is not a module.ts(2306)

const { defineConfig } = require("cypress");
const { pa11y, prepareAudit } = require("@cypress-audit/pa11y");

module.exports = defineConfig({
  video: false,
  e2e: {
    setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
      on("before:browser:launch", (browser = {}, launchOptions) => {
        prepareAudit(launchOptions);
      });

      on("task", {
        pa11y: pa11y(),
      });
    },
    baseUrl: 'https://example.cypress.io',
  },
});

• in tsconfig.json visual studio code gives me this error on line 1
• Cannot find type definition file for 'node'.
  The file is in the program because:
  Entry point of type library 'node' specified in compilerOptions ts

Expected behavior

• The test does run, so it could also be something Visual studio code related?
• I get no errors in Visual studio code when using a javascript framework
• So I'm expecting no errors when using a typescript framework

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows10 x64
• Chrome version: 115.0.5790.173
• Cypress version: 12.17.3
• VSCode version: 1.81.1
• Node.js: 16.17.1

I believe this fixed it for me const { pa11y } = require("@cypress-audit/pa11y");
