Running Typedoc on Project includes files from node_modules?

Question

I have this project setup with typedoc and the npm script (npm run d) used to work:

"d": "typedoc --out doc --exclude **/*.spec.ts ./projects/fs-is/src/lib"

I upgraded the project to Angular 12 (It uses the Angular Package Format) and now when typedoc is run it includes files from node_modules and fails:

Error: node_modules/@types/eslint/index.d.ts:474:43 - error TS2694: Namespace '"/Users/oleersoy/Github/is/node_modules/@types/estree/index"' has no exported member 'ImportExpression'.

474         ImportExpression?: ((node: ESTree.ImportExpression & NodeParentExtension) => void) | undefined;             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Any ideas?

From one of the Typedoc Collaborators:

You see that error because the eslint and estree (parser that eslint relies on) have mismatched versions. I'd recommend making the versions match if possible, or turning on skipLibCheck.

I ended up adding skipLibCheck to the tsconfig.json compiler options, and that fixed it.

In order to get it to work now (July 2023) I also needed to add typedoc.json .... specifically the "entryPointStrategy": "expand" part ...

{
  "entryPointStrategy": "expand",
  "out": "docs"
}
