What did you expected ?

Expecting no errors

UPD:
typedoc@0.23.16 - still works
typedoc@0.23.17 - broken

[GerkinDev]

Yes indeed. I saw this method was modified in their changelog.

[GerkinDev]

Truth is, the next update is kind of stuck because I'm trying to preserve backward compatibility with the current version of the plugin, in order to follow semver notation for 0.x.x versions. And I would gain SO MUCH work time by dropping this version behavior entierly & focus only on the new behavior.

I was hoping typedoc would release a 0.24.0 version soon so that I can legitimately do breaking changes....

[mokone91]

possible its not relevant after TypeStrong/typedoc#2065

[GerkinDev]

The readme stuff will be dropped anyway, but other features are still relevant.

[mokone91]

Im also use @knodes/typedoc-plugin-pages for adding changelog pages to packages, it works fine with latest typedoc

[mokone91]

as this error related to '@knodes/typedoc-plugin-monorepo-readmes' plugin, but pugin feature included to typedoc already - I think this issue can be closed!
Thanks!

[souljorje]

@mokone91 hey! I also get this error right now and can't get why did you decide to close it?

[mokone91]

Hi! because 'readmes' feature added to typdeoc core and this plugin can be disabled

[souljorje]

@mokone91 ah, found it here https://github.com/TypeStrong/typedoc/releases/tag/v0.23.16
thanks a lot!

[adrienboulle]

@mokone91 not sure to understand
The error comes from this file https://github.com/KnodesCommunity/typedoc-plugins/blob/main/packages/pluginutils/src/utils/reflection-source.ts#L48
function getLineNumberAnchor no longer exists but is used by this plugin

[souljorje]

@adrienboulle this plugin is not needed anymore, since it's functionality became native in jsdoc since this release TypeStrong/typedoc@v0.23.16 (release):

In packages mode, readme files will now be automatically included if present, TypeStrong/typedoc#2065.

[adrienboulle]

@souljorje @mokone91

The errors not only occurs in @knodes/plugin-monorepo-readmes but also in @knodes/typedoc-plugin-pages:

[souljorje]

@adrienboulle 🤷‍♂️ try to install latest typedoc & @knodes/typedoc-plugin-pages

[adrienboulle]

that's what I did oc ;)

[adrienboulle]

@souljorje on main branche:
this function calls this utils function that make this function call that does not exist

[GerkinDev]

Yeah sry about that. Unfortunately, I'm super busy right now, but a new version will hopefully be released soon. It's almost done.
