Running task with typescript 3.6.2 throws error

[thviQit]

Using a task to compile typescript, produces the following:

gulp typescript-compile --gulpfile Gulpfile.js
[12:43:11] Using gulpfile ***path***\Gulpfile.js

This error occured on our build agent yesterday, and I was able to fix it today, by limiting npm to typescript 3.5.3. So something doesn't work with typescript 3.6.2, which was released August 28th (after our evening build).

Expected behavior:
That the compile goes well

Actual behavior:
See above

Your gulpfile:

"use strict";
/// <binding BeforeBuild='typescript-compile'/>
var gulp = require("gulp");
var ts = require('gulp-typescript');
var tsProject = ts.createProject('tsconfig.json', { rootDir: "src" });
gulp.task('typescript-compile', function () {
    var tsResult = tsProject.src()
        .pipe(tsProject());
    return tsResult.js.pipe(gulp.dest('cypress'));
});

tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "strict": true,
    "noImplicitAny": false,
    "module": "commonjs",
    "noEmitOnError": true,
    "removeComments": false,
    "sourceMap": true,
    "target": "es5",
    "lib": [ "es5", "dom" ],
    "allowJs": true,
    "baseUrl": "../node_modules",
    "types": [
      "cypress"
    ]
  },
  "include": [
    "**/*.*"
  ],
  "exclude": [
    "node_modules"
  ]
}

package.json

{
  "name": "***",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "***",
  "main": "app.js",
  "author": {
    "name": "***"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "start": "echo",
    "cyrun": "./node_modules/.bin/cypress run",
    "cyop": "./node_modules/.bin/cypress open"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@types/node": "^12.0.8",
    "cypress": "^3.3.1",
    "gulp": "^4.0.2",
    "gulp-typescript": "^5.0.1",
    "mocha": "^5.2.0",
    "mocha-junit-reporter": "^1.22.0",
    "mocha-multi-reporters": "^1.1.7",
    "typescript": "^3.5.2" (now "~3.5.2")
  },
  "dependencies": {}
}

Hope you can help, so we are not stuck at version 3.5.3 :)

Apparently this is a bug from Cypress.Io (cypress-io/cypress#5065) - closing
