Typescript woes with Pipeline

[pvogel1967]

ioredis 4, the "Redis.Pipeline" type had a "length" parameter, so I could do things like this:

    async executePipeline(pipeline: Redis.Pipeline): Promise<[Error | null, any][]> {
        if (pipeline.length < 1) {
            this.logger.warn('Got zero length pipeline to execute');
        }
        const t0 = performance.now();
        const res = await pipeline.exec();
        const t1 = performance.now();
        Math.random() < 0.1 && this.logger.info({ timeTaken: t1 - t0, length: pipeline.length }, `Executed cache pipeline`);
        return res;
    }

In ioredis 5 there doesn't seem to be a way to check the length of the pipeline? This is a problem because I have several places where I'm doing a bunch of work in a loop, pumping it into a pipeline and when the length hits a threshold doing an await pipeline.exec(), then creating a fresh pipeline and the loop continues...

Hey @pvogel1967 👋

The length parameter still exists on v5 and it's an overlook that we don't provide a declaration for it. You can use it with // @ts-expect-error to suppress the warning and we will add the missing declarations in the next version.
