ESM default import This expression is not callable

[jdbruijn]

I ran into this issue when trying to import this as default import. I'm not too familiar with manually created types and namespaces, so I'm not entirely sure what is going on. Please see my basic reproduction repo: https://github.com/jdbruijn/axios-retry-test. I did some tests and can get the import to work by casting the type, but that should not be needed of course. This is with esModuleInterop and v3.5.0.

I am seeing the same error on my project. I was able to work around it in the same way by using your type-casting solution.

Using ts-ignore helped in my case

import axiosRetry from "axios-retry";
// @ts-ignore
axiosRetry(axios, {retries: 3, retryDelay: axiosRetry.exponentialDelay});
