Conflict with @types/es6-promise cause crash on build

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Hello everyone,

First of all, It doesn’t concern only Ionic2, but this happened when I npm-installed superlogin-client and tried to use it,

superlogin-client has the depedency “@types/es6-promise”, but ionic use typescript/lib/lib.es2015.iterable.d.ts. And they don’t go well together.

So I writed this code in src/app/app.component.ts, and I had error on “ionic serve” and “ionic build browser”.

import superlogin from "superlogin-client"

Here is the error when you try “ionic build browser”,

So the solution was to “npm uninstall @types/es6-promise”, and the plugin worked, but is there a way to say “hey don’t install @types/es6-promise” ?

PS : I struggled to have those errors because when I did “ionic serve” I had the error “indexOf of undefined”, so for the beginners like me, try “ionic build [platform]” to have the full stack error :blush:

That project should simply not declare @types/es6-promise as a dependency. If anything it should be a devDependency. Looks like there’s already an open issue for this: micky2be/superlogin-client#31

Thank you for your explaination, you’re right, it’s the project’s fault, so i’ll move to the superlogin github repo.

I just wanted to share my experience, so people won’t struggle on that :slight_smile:

Hello can you help me on how to use sperlogin-client and keep user logged in after page refresh? If you have a source code I can really appreciate. Thank you
