[zvictor]

The error below is thrown while on node v18.15.0 and typescript ^4.9.5

error TS7016: Could not find a declaration file for module 'envfile'. '/app/node_modules/.pnpm/envfile@6.18.0/node_modules/envfile/edition-es2019-esm/index.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.
  Try `npm i --save-dev @types/envfile` if it exists or add a new declaration (.d.ts) file containing `declare module 'envfile';`

Strange, as the types are bundled. Does it work with an earlier minor version?

[sosafe-tim-schumacher]

I have the same problem and I think this might be related if you use esm modules. When I have more time, I can try to dig into it.

[balupton]

this should now be resolved with v6.21.0 https://github.com/bevry/envfile/commit/0412c0363e7505d1492017408ff83304328366a4#diff-7ae45ad102eab3b6d7e7896acd08c427a9b25b346470d7bc6507b6481575d519

shoutout to my GitHub Sponsors for affording me the time to make this happen
