since htmlparser2@8 type declaration requires ts >= 4.5 #1242
Description
It looks like since #1165 landed in the repo, the bundled type declarations use mixed exports (exporting both type and values) which was introduced in TS 4.5 AFAIK.
I am wondering if there's an assumption that the consumer of the package runs a specific version of TS since the htmlparser2@v8.X.X release line. I tried to use that library in a project that runs under TS 4.2 and the type checker errors out as it doesn't understand the mixed exports syntax. That's the kind of error that are being thrown:
node_modules/htmlparser2/lib/index.d.ts:2:23 - error TS1005: ',' expected.
2 export { Parser, type ParserOptions };
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Maybe we could add a note about the minimum TS requirement or provide backward compatible type declarations (relying on typesVersion and using a tool such as downlevel-dts).
Thank you so much for your work on this awesome lib and hopefully this is useful feedback
