Typescript using built-in Request instead of Scriptable Request

[demenik]

The Issue

I am currently trying to code a Scriptable script with typescript, webpack, and schl3ck/ios-scriptable-types. However, as I tried to create a new Request, Typescript IntelliSense used the node.js Request instead of the Scriptable Request for linting.

This is not specifically an issue with this repo, but rather a problem with how VSCode IntelliSense handles the naming conflict of the built-in node.js Request and the Scriptable Request. I am not asking for a fix by this repo owner (because I think there is none), but rather if you know how to fix this issue.

I can also just // @ts-ignore the line, but this will give me an any type, which I don't want to do.

Output by IntelliSense

The Request type used by IntelliSense is located at

Removing the DOM library from my tsconfig.json seems to have done the trick:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "module": "CommonJS",
    "target": "es2017",
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "noImplicitAny": true,
    "lib": ["ES2017"]
  },
  "include": ["./src/package/**/*"]
}
