Getting error says 'this' context of type 'void' is not assignable about classnames

[dcousens]

Hi @rafeekasharaf,

Could you please provide an example of how to reproduce this type error?

Hey there,
Getting the same error
typed as follow :
const cx = classNames.bind(styles) as typeof classNames;

used as follow :

<div className={cx('white-bg')}>HELLO</>

I could correct it typing like this, but this is not type safe.
const cx = classNames.bind(styles) as (...args: any) => string;

Can you suggest a better way please?

Does pinning classNames exactly help? e.g.

{
  "dependencies": {
    "classnames": "2.3.1"
  },
  "resolutions": {
    "classnames": "2.3.1"
  }
}

This fixed it for me.

My yarn.lock shows classnames versions - my package.json was set to ^2.3.1), but I had 2.2.x and 2.3.x in my lockfile.

Seems like this is a type-safety issue stemming from the fact that Function.prototype.bind() itself is not type-safe, and instead returns any. This seems to be the same issue as #299, so I will close this as a duplicate.
