Hi Jason 👋I hope you can help, we updated our project to use angular 15 and typesense-instantsearch-adapter 2.4.2. But now i am getting error
ERROR TypeError: typesense_instantsearch_adapter__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_2__ is not a constructor
I didn't change anything, so syntax like you provided in example:
import TypesenseInstantSearchAdapter from 'typesense-instantsearch-adapter';

const typesenseInstantsearchAdapter = new TypesenseInstantSearchAdapter(options)

Found familiar github issue, but there no answers

I briefly looked into that issue, but it seemed like it would require a non-trivial amount of changes back when the library was written in JS. Now that we’ve converted it into Typescript, I wonder if it is any easier.

Are you able to share a minimal project that I can use to replicate the issue and then test any potential fixes?

it will be hard, i also didn't mention that the problem is that i use typesense adapter in component inside our custom libriory, it bilds ok, but when i try to use it in angular project it throws error. If i create same component in project it works ok, but throw libriory - no. Everything was ok on angular 11, but after update to 15 it started to throw error

Can you create a standalone angular 15 project, with a basic search field and see if you can replicate the issue there?
