Definitelytyped: [react-router] Type 'Location' is not generic.

[rhys-vdw]

I tried using the @types/[email protected] package and had problems.

ERROR in [at-loader] ./node_modules/@types/react-router/index.d.ts:69:13
    TS2315: Type 'Location' is not generic.

This is correct, the version of @types/history that this package depends on does not have a generic Location type. However the current version in master does.

Perhaps related to #27012.

Seems the package is being distributed without the correct dependency on @types/history:

From package.json

    "dependencies": {
        "@types/react": "*",
        "@types/history": "*"
    },

Updating to "@types/history": "4.7.0", fixed this for me.

Thanks for the hint.

Ah, I fixed this by removing and re-adding @types/react-router and @types/react who both depend on the package. My package does not depend on @types/history so I could not update it directly, and the subdependency is not updated with yarn upgrade --latest @types/react-router. However, when it's added for the first time it will be locked to latest.

@rhys-vdw Thanks for the hint. Doing what you described didn't work for me for some reason, but it pointed me in the right direction: I just went in and modified the yarn.lock to get myself unstuck from that state.

update your react-router or add {"skipLibCheck": true} to your tsconfig.json
