I get a types error when registering redis with nestjs using CacheModule.register - redis

Question

I am trying to implement redis using the packages : "CacheModule" and "cache-manager-redis-store". The latter brings me a type error when assigning it to the store property of the register method of CacheModule.
code where the error occurs:
`
import { Module, CacheModule } from "#nestjs/common";
import { AuthModule } from "./auth/auth.module";
import { MongooseModule } from "#nestjs/mongoose";
import { EnvConfiguration } from "./config/env.config";
import { ConfigModule } from "#nestjs/config";
import { redisStore } from "cache-manager-redis-store";
#Module({
imports: [
ConfigModule.forRoot({
load: [EnvConfiguration],
}),
MongooseModule.forRoot(process.env.MONGODB),
AuthModule,
CacheModule.register({
store: redisStore, <--- HERE THE ERROR HAPPENS
host: "localhost",
port: 6379,
}),
],
controllers: [],
providers: [],
})
export class AppModule {}
`
ERROR:
`

Cache manager. The default value is 'memory' (memory storage). See Different Stores for more information.

`
I want to be able to implement redis with nestjs, solving the described problem or with another way of implementing it that works correctly.

Answer 1

Change this:
import { redisStore } from "cache-manager-redis-store";
to this:
import redisStore from "cache-manager-redis-store";
or this:
import * as redisStore from "cache-manager-redis-store";
or this:
// eslint-disable-next-line #typescript-eslint/no-var-requires
const redisStore = require("cache-manager-redis-store");

The method of importing redisStore is the problem. The location pointed out as the issue is where the error is being generated.
From Nest JS Docs
import type { ClientOpts } from 'redis';
import * as redisStore from 'cache-manager-redis-store';
import { CacheModule, Module } from '#nestjs/common';
import { AppController } from './app.controller';
#Module({
imports: [
CacheModule.register<ClientOpts>({
store: redisStore,
// Store-specific configuration:
host: 'localhost',
port: 6379,
}),
],
controllers: [AppController],
})
export class AppModule {}
