Histogram startTimer return value in typescript definition incorrect?

[kevkcc]

Hi,

I was wondering if the following line should return number instead of void.

prom-client/index.d.ts

Line 566 in a88a5c3

startTimer(): (labels?: LabelValues<T>) => void;

I wanted to start a timer on a specific label and am doing something like this in my code:

const end = histogram.labels({ mylabels }).startTimer();
// some stuff
const seconds = end();

But I was surprised to see that this startTimer in the ts definitions doesn't return number and supposedly returns void. In testing, my code works and it still returns a number so I believe it's just a problem with the ts definition.
