Problems using

I’ve been using the delay module in a typescript module (@google-cloud/profiler).

I’d previously used the type definitions from DefinitelyTyped, so @types/delay, without issue. But when I try to use version 3.1.0 of this module (and use the types from this latest version), my module no longer compiles, and I get errors like:

ts/test/test-time-profiler.ts:65:16 - error TS2349: Cannot invoke an expression whose type lacks a call signature. Type 'typeof import("/usr/local/google/home/nolanmar/cloud-profiler-nodejs-working/cloud-profiler-nodejs/node_modules/delay/index")' has no compatible call signatures.

65          await delay(2 * durationMillis);
                  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Is this expected? Any advice for how I can migrate to version 3.1.0 of `delay?

@dmitry-korolev It’s not a breaking change. I can’t be responsible for externally created type definitions.

Relevant: https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/19283

This looks like a breaking change to me 😕 Didn’t notice this change because I always use allowSyntheticDefaultImports in my projects.
