ESM default export is not properly defined

[Dzieni]

I have a a following buildQueryTest.mjs:

import buildQuery from "odata-query";

console.log(buildQuery({ top: 5 }));

It fails the following way:

michal@dzieni dataverse-poc % node buildQueryTest.mjs 
file:///Users/michal/Projects/dataverse-poc/buildQueryTest.mjs:3
console.log(buildQuery({ top: 5 }));
            ^

TypeError: buildQuery is not a function

Node.js v18.6.0

Workaround is to use a following piece of code:

import _buildQuery from "odata-query";
const buildQuery = _buildQuery.default;

console.log(buildQuery({ top: 5 }));

Although it is incorrect according to what TS types say:

To sum it up: to properly import odata-query in ESM-powered app with TypeScript, I have to perform following gymnastics:

import _buildQuery from 'odata-query'
const buildQuery = (_buildQuery as unknown as {default: typeof _buildQuery}).default
