Intellisense not working for Playwright, REST

[zhigulin-n]

I write autotests on the Codeceptjs framework in TypeScript. After adding additional modules to the project, as well as after updating the repository with the command:

npx codeceptjs def

Intellisense is starting to work for me and I'm starting to see methods that I can use. For example, I see methods of such modules as: JSONResponse, DbHelper, ChaiWrapper.
I also installed Playwright and REST. But for these modules, intelisense does not work.

import { setHeadlessWhen, setCommonPlugins } from '@codeceptjs/configure';
// turn on headless mode when running with HEADLESS=true environment variable
// export HEADLESS=true && npx codeceptjs run
setHeadlessWhen(process.env.HEADLESS);
const env = require('dotenv').config({
path: '.env.test'
})

if (env.error && env.error.code === 'ENOENT') {
throw new Error('Please, recreate env.test file')
}

const base_url = process.env.URL
const currentBrowser = process.env.profile ?? 'chromium'; // 'firefox', 'webkit'

// enable all common plugins https://github.com/codeceptjs/configure#setcommonplugins
setCommonPlugins();

export const config: CodeceptJS.MainConfig = {
tests: './tests/\*\_test.ts',
output: './output',
helpers: {
ChaiWrapper: {
require: "codeceptjs-chai"
},
Playwright: {
url: base_url,
show: true,
browser: currentBrowser
},
REST: {
endpoint: base_url,
},
JSONResponse: {},
DbHelper: {
"require": "codeceptjs-dbhelper"
}
},
include: {
"I": "./common/custom_steps",
},
plugins: {
tryTo: {
enabled: true
}
},
name: 'test',
fullPromiseBased: false
}

Reinstalling modules doesn't help.

Did you run npx codeceptjs def once you added Playwright and REST?

Yes

Well, I guess, it should be

type steps_file = typeof import('./common/custom_steps.ts'); or type steps_file = typeof import('./common/custom_steps.js'); depends on your created file.

Had no effect

May you try this demo project. Perhaps you can understand what went wrong with yours.

[zhigulin-n]

This is one of the solutions to my problem, I already found a couple of templates for the project.

But for now, I'm trying to figure it out specifically in my project.

@zhigulin-n Just try restarting VSCode if you feel you have everything correct….

I found the solution. In steps.d.ts you need to add the transfer of Methods to WithTranslation

Instead of:
interface I extends ReturnType<steps_file>, WithTranslation<ChaiWrapper>, WithTranslation<JSONResponse>, WithTranslation<DbHelper> {}

We are adding
interface I extends ReturnType<steps_file>, WithTranslation<Methods> {}
