Svelte and TS errors when importing svgs about sveltekit-svg

[poppa]

Tanks for the message @coldino, very much appreciated.

In my personal opinion there are too many moving parts when it comes to a project and how TS and type-resolution etc is setup, that it feels more or less like a guessing-game getting all these things to work 😂

Now, if anyone makes a PR with more sensible defaults, I'll be the first to merge it ☺️

i created the ./src/ambient.d.ts file then added the declare stuff inside and it worked without any issues. Having it in the app.d.ts doesn't work, I confirm.

I have no idea of your setup, but try giving this a try. Change the *.svg?component-typing to this:

declare module '*.svg?component' {
  const content: ConstructorOfATypedSvelteComponent
  export default content
}

Let me know if that helps?

I've made a new release where I think this issue may be solved.

Feel free to re-open this issue if the problem persists.

Hello,

I am having a similar issue to this. I have added

declare module '*.svg?component' {
	const content: ConstructorOfATypedSvelteComponent
	export default content
}

but I am still getting an error with it

I am not sure what I am missing?

Hi @tcherokee. Perhaps you'r on an old version of SvelteKit? Either upgrade or change the type to any.

Hope that helps.

I'm not sure why, but putting the declare module '*.svg?component' section in app.d.ts isn't working for me as I still get Cannot find module with an import like $lib/images/dev.svg?component. I have other things in the app.d.ts that DO work as expected - for example a session added to App.Locals.

Experimenting a little, I found putting it in a .d.ts beside the .svelte file works. In my case this is my global +layout.svelte and the declaration works if it lives in +layout.d.ts.

Of course this is unlikely to be caused by an issue in this library, but does anyone know the cause, and do the docs here need to be updated?

Also looking for solutions. @coldino your workaround does work, indeed.

i installed with bun add --dev @poppanator/sveltekit-svg and got this issue. I think maybe bun doesn't add the typing (idk). I just added the type to app.d.tsand that worked for me

declare module '*.svg?component' {
  const content: ConstructorOfATypedSvelteComponent
  export default content
}

@Porter-smith Did you try this? https://github.com/poppa/sveltekit-svg/#typescript

Oh I see ! I didn't realize it had that thank you !
