A demo of the bug that causes portability issues in rules_js:
Just run:
bazel run //:foo --sandbox_debug
And it will produce the following error:
error TS2742: The inferred type of 'Offline' cannot be named without a reference to '.aspect_rules_js/@[email protected]/node_modules/@myorg/c/qux'. This is likely not portable. A type annotation is necessary.
The reasons seems to be there is no linkage underneath node_modules(The screenshot is of the bin folder in sandbox and it seems to be missing node_modules/@myorg/c):
Also, to reproduce wheren't so easy. It requires at least import with file reference i.e. @org/package/file and an enum in the transitive dep, and in the source file you also need some type operation fiddling to reproduce it.
And when you remove data attribute in ts.bzl the error dissapears:
