Solana: Can’t compile anchor typescript project
Error Compiling Typescript Project on Solana: Unable to Compile Anchor Typescript Project
The Issue You’re Experiencing is due a mismatch between the Typescript Compiler and the @Coral-Xyz/Anchor
Package. Specifically, the error occurs when trying to compile your project with the tsc
command.
To Resolve This Problem, Let’s Go Through The Steps:
Step 1: Check the Typescript Version
Ensure that you’re using the latest version of Typescript (> = 4.7). If you’re still using an older version, Consider Updating to the Most Recent One.
`Bash
NPX TSC -Version
Step 2: Install @Coral-Xyz/Anchor
With the Correct Version
You need to install the latest version of @Coral-Xyz/Anchor
. Run the Following Command:
`Bash
NPM Install-Save @Coral-Xyz/Anchor @Latest
or
yarn add @coral-xyz/anchor @latest
Step 3: Update your tsconfig.json
file
Update your tsconfig.json
file to include the necessary Configuration for Compiling Typescript withTSC
. Add the Following Lines:
`Json
{
"Compiler Options": {
// ...
"Target": "ES6",
"Lib": ["Dom", "Esnext"],
// ...
}
}
Replace " ES6 "
With Your Preferred Target Version (E.G., " ES5 "
If you Prefer Older JavaScript).
Step 4: Re-compile Your Project
After Making these Changes, Re-Compile Your Typescript Project Using the TSC
Command.
`Bash
NPX TSC
or
Yarn TSC
If you encounter any issues duration compilation, ensure that:
- You have installed all Required Dependencies (
@Coral-Xyz/Anchor
) and Their Transpilers.
- Your TypeScript Version is compatible with
@Coral-Xyz/Anchor
.
- The compiler Options are correctly configured in your
tsconfig.json
file.
