broken d.ts in projects with default exports in separate files

[megastels]

plugin generates broken declarations

• Version: 2.0.5
• Rollup Version: 2.79

Reproduction

Simple example

A.ts

export default "Module A";

B.ts

export default "Module B";

entry point

export { default as ModuleA } from './A';
export { default as ModuleB } from './B';

config

export default defineConfig({
    input: "src/index.ts",
    output: {
        file: "dist/index.js",
    },
    plugins: [
        ts(),
    ]
})

Expected Behavior

declare const _default_1: "Module A";
declare const _default_2: "Module B";
export { _default_1 as A, _default_2 as B };

Actual Behavior

// Cannot redeclare block-scoped variable '_default'.
declare const _default: "Module A";
declare const _default: "Module B";
export { _default as A, _default as B };

I've been seeing the same issue for a while; thanks for providing the reproduction example, @megastels! I reckon this was caused by 16d24fa

I'd love to see this addressed :-) Happy to help too, but not sure how much time I'll have in the coming weeks.

@wessberg I managed to add a test case with the above example; as expected, it fails. However, I'm unsure where to continue - all my console.logs are being swallowed when running the tests, for example 😄 . Any pointers?

Came here to report this myself. Slightly different but similar scenario, and likely the same root cause. This is a pretty significant gap imho. Exporting default symbols is a very common use case.

In my case:
entry point:

export * from './colors';

export { default as ThemePalette } from './ThemePalette';
export * from './darkThemePalette';
export * from './lightThemePalette';

The bottom three work (even the default as ThemePalette, but the index.ts in the ./colors folder has a bunch more default exports, and those all end up broken.

/** colors/index.ts */
export { default as TonalPalette } from './TonalPalette';

export { default as common } from './common';
export { default as aqua } from './aqua';
export { default as blue } from './blue';
export { default as gray } from './gray';
export { default as grey } from './gray';
export { default as green } from './green';
export { default as orange } from './orange';
export { default as purple } from './purple';
export { default as red } from './red';
export { default as yellow } from './yellow';

Those all end up like this in the rolled up .d.ts:

export { default as TonalPalette, default as common, default as aqua, default as blue, default as gray, default as grey, default as green, default as orange, default as purple, default as red, default as yellow, ThemePalette, darkThemePalette, lightThemePalette };

I've hit this too. Is there a workaround?

[runspired]

also hit this, am being told the answer is to abandon this and rollup for vite and vite-plugin-ts 😭
