openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix build: missing dependencies for bundled extensions (grammy, @slack/web-api, @buape/carbon, etc.) [3 comments, 4 participants]

Error Example

extensions/telegram/src/bot-handlers.runtime.ts(276,19): error TS7006: Parameter 'sendErr' implicitly has an 'any' type. extensions/telegram/src/bot-message-context.types.ts(1,26): error TS2307: Cannot find module 'grammy' or its corresponding type declarations. extensions/whatsapp/src/inbound/extract.ts(1,28): error TS2307: Cannot find module '@whiskeysockets/baileys' or its corresponding type declarations. extensions/slack/src/actions.ts(1,51): error TS2307: Cannot find module '@slack/web-api' or its corresponding type declarations. extensions/discord/src/monitor/reply-context.ts(1,43): error TS2307: Cannot find module '@buape/carbon' or its corresponding type declarations.

Fix Plan

To resolve the TypeScript errors due to missing dependencies, follow these steps:

1. Declare dependencies in the root package.json: If the extensions are bundled, add the missing packages to the dependencies section of the root package.json file.

   "dependencies": {
     // ... existing dependencies ...
     "grammy": "^2.8.0",
     "@grammyjs/runner": "^2.8.0",
     "@grammyjs/transformer-throttler": "^2.8.0",
     "@whiskeysockets/baileys": "^1.2.0",
     "@slack/web-api": "^6.2.1",
     "@slack/bolt": "^4.10.0",
     "@larksuiteoapi/node-sdk": "^1.0.0",
     "@buape/carbon": "^1.0.0",
     "discord-api-types": "^0.28.0",
     "@discordjs/voice": "^0.12.0"
   }

2. Use npm workspaces for separate packages: If the extensions are meant to be separate packages, consider using npm workspaces to manage dependencies. Create a workspaces field in the root package.json file:

   "workspaces": [
     "extensions/telegram",
     "extensions/whatsapp",
     "extensions/slack",
     "extensions/discord",
     "extensions/feishu"
   ]

   Then, in each extension's package.json file, declare the required dependencies.

3. Run npm install: After updating the package.json file, run npm install to install the declared dependencies.

Verification

To verify that the fix worked, run the build process again and check for any TypeScript errors related to missing dependencies.

Extra Tips

• Ensure that the versions of the installed packages are compatible with the OpenClaw version and Node.js version.
• Consider using a npm shrinkwrap or yarn.lock file to lock the package versions and prevent version conflicts.
• If using npm workspaces, make sure to update the package.json files in each workspace to reflect the correct dependencies.
