Property 'State' is missing in type 'CompoundedComponent' but required in type 'typeof TextInput'

[victorlavrenko]

Current behaviour

I'm trying to use Paper's TextInput in other components that expect typeof React Native's TypeInput, however, fail:

Property 'State' is missing in type 'CompoundedComponent' but required in type 'typeof TextInput'.

Expected behaviour

I think Paper's TextInput shall support Static property. It's in there at least since the split of types at React Native that happened more than a year ago.

How to reproduce?

Try the following in TypeScript:

TextInput as typeof ReactTextInput

          <PhoneInput
            ref={phoneInputRef}
            initialCountry={countryCode.toLowerCase()}
            autoFormat={true}
            textProps={{ autoComplete: "tel", autoFocus: true, inputMode: "tel", placeholder: "Your Phone Number" }}
            onPressFlag={switchVisible}
            onChangePhoneNumber={(phone, country) => onPhoneInputChange(phone, country)}
            textComponent={TextInput as typeof ReactTextInput}  // Using TextInput from react-native-paper
          />
