Uncaught TypeError: MiniSearch__default.default is not a constructor

[timmeno1]

Hello, i'm caused by "Uncaught TypeError: MiniSearch__default.default is not a constructor"
when just trying to initialize const { search, searchResults } = useMiniSearch(documents, miniSearchOptions)
doing same as provided in examples.
May be i'm doing wrong?
p.s. sorry for my english

Hi @timmeno1 ,
are you using TypeScript? If so, you might need to set the esModuleInterop option to true in the compilerOptions section of tsconfig.json.

I have the same problem with v5.0.0 (v5.0.0-beta1 is working fine), my esModuleInterop flag is already true 😢

Uncaught TypeError: MiniSearch__default.default is not a constructor
    at useMiniSearch (react-minisearch.tsx:23:1)

Same issue with 5.0.0-beta2, lucaong/minisearch@39d2697 must be the culprit

What is strange is that the examples in this repo are working fine, and so the projects where I use this library. I think I need some more info to debug this. For example, how do you import react-minisearch?

[DavidRouyer]

Are you using the https://create-react-app.dev/?

import { useMiniSearch } from 'react-minisearch';

export const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
  ...
  const { search, searchResults, addAll, removeAll } = useMiniSearch<{
    id: string;
    name: string;
  }>([], {
    fields: ['name'],
    storeFields: ['name'],
    searchOptions: { prefix: true },
  });
  ...
}

I don’t, but I can try it to reproduce the issue

I am also facing the same issue with version 6.0.2, and esModuleInterop is also true
