Issue

If try to compile a project with rxdb as dependency with strict flag enable, the TypeScript compiler complains about several implicit any types.

Info

• Environment: Compiler

Code

// index.ts
import rxdb from 'rxdb';

// tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "es5",
    "module": "commonjs",
    "strict": true
  }
}

Run the TS compiler npx tsc.

I added strict: true to our typings-tests. But everything seems to works fine. Which typescript-version do you have?

[michaeljota]

I test it with 2.6 and with 2.7-dev(@next tag)

I could reproduce and fix this now.
Please notice that there is still an rxjs-issue with the strict-mode. See here

I am still having the same issue with [email protected]. Here is the error saying:

> tsc

node_modules/rxdb/typings/rx-database.d.ts:74:12 - error TS7006: Parameter 'ServerOptions' implicitly has an 'any' type.

Here is my tsconfig

{
  "compilerOptions": {

    "lib": [ "es2015", "dom" ],

    "declaration": true,

  },

  "exclude": ["node_modules", "**/__tests__/*"]

@anidotnet thanks for reporting.
I now enabled the strict-mode in the angular-example to ensure this will not happen again in the future but instead fail on the CI when something is wrong.
