Typedoc: TypeDoc doesn't work anymore after I upgraded my package.json to TypeScript 3.7.2

Created on 6 Nov 2019 · 8Comments · Source: TypeStrong/typedoc

[x] I have checked issues with bug label and found no duplicates

Expected Behavior

It should let me use a newer version of TypeScript as soon as it is released.

Actual Behavior

It throws an error:

Using TypeScript 3.5.3 from /home/jenkins/workspace/Atlas_atlas-dev-api_master/node_modules/typedoc/node_modules/typescript/lib
Error: /home/jenkins/workspace/Atlas_atlas-dev-api_master/node_modules/atlas-client-web/atlas-application.d.ts(93)
 An accessor cannot be declared in an ambient context.

Steps to reproduce the bug

I'm not yet using any new features from TypeScript 3.7. The line of code it is complaining about is a get accessor in one of my project's dependencies (which was also compiled using TS 3.7)

Environment

Typedoc version:
Node.js version:
OS:

typedoc: v0.15.0
nodejs: v12.12.0

It is published as a separate package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@gerrit0/typedoc
I am interested to know when to expect the main typedoc package to be updated though - using this alternative package appears to cause issues loading typedoc plugins.

This should be fixed when #1129 is merged.

When is this getting released?

@aciccarello and @blakeembrey (and Sebastian Lenz, but he stepped away ages ago) are the only ones with publishing permissions, so I can't promise anything with release dates unfortunately, which is why I set up @gerrit0/typedoc to mirror master.

@pmconne any chance you could toss a reproduction up somewhere I could look at? The code there is identical (besides minor changes to change the name + loaded theme), so if it breaks the plugins they are probably broken on master here too, which would be nice to fix.
Edit: Duh, of course it breaks... all the plugins do require('typedoc')... so they probably aren't broken on master here.

@Gerrit0 I added you as the owner of the NPM package, sorry that I hadn't heard of this issue earlier.
