Can't use babel-plugin-react-intl-auto with typescript

[bin-umar]

Can you suggest please right types to work with typescript?

 TS2322: Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'Record<string, string> | Record<string, MessageFormatElement[]>'.

we're also getting this error

TS2559: Type 'string' has no properties in common with type 'MessageDescriptor'.
    66 | 
    67 | const messages = defineMessages({

Because the react-intl is looking for a Message descriptor type, but we're just passing strings messageKey: 'messageValue'

Ran into the same issue. You need to add a reference to the types from this plugin.

Just create a d.ts file (e.g. src/env.d.ts) with the following content:

/// <reference types="babel-plugin-react-intl-auto" />
