I've been trying to follow the documentation for generating types for @polkadot/api https://polkadot.js.org/docs/api/examples/promise/typegen/. However the generated files seem to be missing many types, revealed by tsc:

Error: src/interfaces/index.ts(4,15): error TS2306: File '/home/runner/work/dscp-matchmaker-api/dscp-matchmaker-api/src/interfaces/types.ts' is not a module.

It also generates an empty types.ts - I've not added any custom definitions.

metadata.json was generated with curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"id":"1", "jsonrpc":"2.0", "method": "state_getMetadata", "params":[]}' http://localhost:9944 hitting our local node.

Is there something I'm missing or getting wrong in my setup?

PR showing the commands used and files generated . Thank you

  • we are have a very similar problem. I noticed when i run the generator it gives an error ERROR: No lookup definitions found: Unknown file extension ".ts" for src/interfaces/lookup.ts

Reset to default

Try update to latest version of polkadot typegen and use this

"generate:defs": "node --experimental-specifier-resolution=node --loader ts-node/esm  node_modules/.bin/polkadot-types-from-defs --package dscp-matchmaker-api/interfaces  --input ./src/interfaces --endpoint ./metadata.json",
"generate:meta": "node --experimental-specifier-resolution=node --loader ts-node/esm  node_modules/.bin/polkadot-types-from-chain --endpoint ./metadata.json --output ./src/interfaces"
