TypeScript Compile Error : An accessor cannot be declared in an ambient context

[gigenthomas]

typescript : 3.5.3
Angular CLI: 8.3.28
Node: 12.18.0
@deepstream/client": 5.0.8

"typeRoots": [
"node_modules/@deepstream/client/deepstream-client.d.ts"
]

Get the following error after upgrade to Angular 8. Works just fine in Angular 7.

ERROR in node_modules/@deepstream/client/dist/connection/connection.d.ts:27:9 - error TS1086: An accessor cannot be declared in an ambient context.

27 get isConnected(): boolean;

Any help is greatly appreciated !!

Hi, can you re-open the issue in the deepstream client repo since it is a client issue? Thanks

[yasserf]

seems this is an issue with angular/typescript version

storybookjs/storybook#9463

easiest thing is apparently adding "skipLibCheck": true

Thank you @yasserf . Confirmed that the above fix works
