TypeError: (0 , dayjs_1.default) is not a function

Question

This is my logger.ts file that error happens there:

import logger from "pino";
import dayjs from "dayjs";

const log = logger({
  prettyPrint: true,
  base: {
    pid: false,
  },
  timestamp: () => `,"time":"${dayjs().format()}"`,
});

export default log;

It was working on my previous app, but I don't know why do I get this error for my new application?

dayjs does not export a default entry like that; use import * as dayjs from 'dayjs' to import all of it's exports (as you are trying to do)

I have solved the same problem by adding "esModuleInterop": true to tsconfig.json:

{
    "compilerOptions": {
        "noImplicitAny": true,
        "esModuleInterop": true,
        "allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
        "moduleResolution": "node",
        "module": "commonjs",
        "target": "es6"
    }
}

I tried this and it was creating `js` files for every `ts` file in the src directory. Not sure why but I had to remove and had to use use import * as dayjs from 'dayjs'. – FAntony Mar 08 '23 at 00:08

When I change the import to

import * as dayjs from 'dayjs'

the node runs normally, but the typeScript throws an error. Changing the import to

import dayjs = require('dayjs');

solved the problem.
