tsc fails because of SwiperFlatList.tsx file

[splitwarechef]

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch [email protected] for the project I'm working on.

Running tsc in the project causes this type issue

node_modules/react-native-swiper-flatlist/src/components/SwiperFlatList/SwiperFlatList.tsx:238:7 - error TS2322: Type 'RefObject<FlatList<unknown> | null>' is not assignable to type 'RefObject<FlatList<unknown>>'.
  Type 'FlatList<unknown> | null' is not assignable to type 'FlatList<unknown>'.
    Type 'null' is not assignable to type 'FlatList<unknown>'.

238       ref: flatListElement,
          ~~~

  node_modules/react-native-swiper-flatlist/src/components/SwiperFlatList/SwiperFlatList.tsx:236:53
    236     const flatListProps: FlatListProps<unknown> & { ref: React.RefObject<RNFlatList<unknown>> } = {
                                                            ~~~
    The expected type comes from property 'ref' which is declared here on type 'FlatListProps<unknown> & { ref: RefObject<FlatList<unknown>>; }'

Here is my ts config

{
  "extends": "expo/tsconfig.base",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "strict": true,
    "baseUrl": ".",
    "paths": {
      "~/*": ["src/*"],
      "~~/*": ["./*"],
    }
  },
  "exclude": [
    "node_modules",
    "**/Pods"
  ],
  "include": [
    "**/*.ts",
    "**/*.tsx"
  ]
}

Here is the diff that solved my problem:
