Udacity-c2-restapi exercise issue

[abdelrazek-alaa]

I had an issue running the udacity-c2-restapi exercise to follow along with the lesson . and I had managed to workaround this and I thought this fix might be helpful for anyone facing the same issue.

Steps : 1- Delete package-lock.json ❌ 2. Update all the npm dependencies to their latest version : here's how ✨

Upon running the app you'll face this typescript error. 👇 The easiest way to fix would be by applying this change to FeedItem and User models at: src\controllers\v0\feed\models\FeedItem.ts src\controllers\v0\users\models\User.ts

- export class User extends Model<User>
+ export class User extends Model

- export class FeedItem extends Model<FeedItem>
+ export class FeedItem extends Model

Hope this helps 🙂

It seems your solution works out however there's an error encountered at run time

I also have a friend who's stuck here, any help would be appreciated ⭐

Udacity does not recommend changing the package.json because the application code may not be compatible with newer package versions. However, you can regenerate package-lock.json if needed. Use Node 12 for the desired experience.
