Typescript - can't extend Boom

[ondratra]

Hi, in version @hapi/boom v7.4.2 I was able to extend Boom class like this:

import * as Boom from '@hapi/boom'

export class RequestError extends Boom {

}

and use my custom error in the project. But after version 7.4.3 it can't be done anymore. First of all I need to import in a slightly different way and then I get error. So in 7.4.3 with this code

import Boom from '@hapi/boom'
// import {Boom} from '@hapi/boom' // is also fine

export class RequestError extends Boom {

}

I get error TypeError: Object prototype may only be an Object or null: undefined

Is it bug or intended feature? If so how to achieve the same effect?

Have you tried 7.4.9 ?

[ondratra]

Yes, sry I haven't mentioned it right away. Does it work for you?

We're seeing a similar error in 7.4.9 where Boom is undefined when we import is as such:

import Boom from '@hapi/boom';

Boom.isBoom(error)

The actual runtime error is: Cannot read property 'isBoom' of undefined
