Working around Typescript and defineCommand

Hello,

Is there a way to work around the Typescript limitations with defineCommand?

@Qix- i don’t think it can be solved on ioredis side. To overcome issues with typings you can create a wrapper file with one @ts-ignore like this:

// using "@types/ioredis": "^4.0.8"
import Redis, { Redis as RedisInterface } from 'ioredis';

// @ts-ignore
export const redis: MyRedis = new Redis();

interface MyRedis extends RedisInterface {
    // declare your custom commands here
    test();
    anotherCustomCommand();
}

and use it like this (checked in VSCode with latest typescript and they pick up test method on redis):

import { redis} from './redis-wrapper';
redis.test();

This seems to be a feature request / question that shouldn’t be auto-closed without a maintainer actually looking at it.
