Question

I'M also trying to extend the express js request declaring

an interface in custom.d.ts file:

export interface Request {
user: {
id: string
}
}

but when I import it:

import { Request } from '../types/custom';
router.get('/', auth, async (req: Request, res: Response) => {

I get: Argument of type '(req: Request, res: Response) => Promise<void>' is not assignable to parameter of type 'RequestHandler<ParamsDictionary, any, any, ParsedQs>'.

any idea?

interface UserRequest extends express.Request { user: { id: string } }

Is it a business oriented decision that led to this? If it's not, I would advise against this as it couples you to Express forever. You could utilize the app.local as it's defined for that purpose.

Here you're trying to override Express Request types entirely it seems, your argument types in the handler need to match express request types as well, so I would probably try extending it
