Hi 👋 The TS SDK uses

axios

internally. However, consumers don’t necessarily need to install that dependency. When dealing with error handling we need to type the

error

as

AxiosError

. The

@ory/client

package doesn’t export that type declaration, requiring consumers to install

axios

just for accessing the type. If would be great if the type

AxiosError

can be exported from the

@ory/client

package so that consumers don’t need to explicitly install

axios

dependency. Would that be possible? Happy to contribute to that if needed. Thanks 🤗

could you use Typescript’s ReturnType utility type?

The

ReturnType

is used for functions. Here we’re talking about the

error

object.

try {
  // some Ory API call
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof AxiosError) {
    // handle error
  }
}

Ah yep sorry, wasn't thinking straight

No worries
