Highcharts.SeriesPieOptions is missing with 11.4.1 about highcharts

Thank you for sharing your solution. Wonderful that it works now. I will close the issue as solved. Feel free to comment further if needed.

Internal: FYI @hubertkozik .

We get error on compile, so it's not an editor issue.

All we have is this import (to use ESM)

import Highcharts from 'highcharts/es-modules/masters/highcharts.src';

Then in our code:

export const DONUT_CHART_SERIES_BASE: Highcharts.SeriesPieOptions = {
  type: 'pie',
  data: []
};

This is the error:

Error: apps/accounts-and-resources/src/app/accounts-and-resources/highcharts.constants.ts:52:50 - error TS2724: '"D:/Git/cloud-ui/node_modules/highcharts/highcharts"' has no exported member named 'SeriesPieOptions'. Did you mean 'SeriesOptions'?

      52 export const DONUT_CHART_SERIES_BASE: Highcharts.SeriesPieOptions = {
                                                          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I can add this to our code:

type SeriesPieOptions = Highcharts.SeriesOptionsRegistry['SeriesPieOptions'];

Then use this new type alias instead:

export const DONUT_CHART_SERIES_BASE: SeriesPieOptions = {
  type: 'pie',
  data: []
};

This compiles but seems like a workaround and not proper way of doing it? Just want to confirm it.

Hello @rbirkgit,

Thank you for the details. I need more information to have a chance of reproducing the issue.

Please provide the content of all tsconfig.json, the building command, and additional configuration files related to it.

You can also take a look at this working project https://github.com/bre1470/testproject-es6 and compare it with your configuration.

Thanks for the short sample. It all works fine there (adding our code). I now see what is going on.

Our code imported Highcharts in the main file. Then imported data from a model file. That model file didn't import Highcharts itself. It somehow worked anyway for the code and types including other series. But not the SeriesPieOptions . Go figure.

Adding the import of Highcharts at the top of the model file, the code compiles now without workarounds.

I should be all set. Thanks for quick help!
