I don't really recognize the output here; it looks like:

export type Exact<P, I extends P> = P extends Builtin ? P
  : P & { [K in keyof P]: Exact<P[K], I[K]> } & { [K in Exclude<keyof I, KeysOfUnion<P>>]: never };

But we don't output keyof I, "result", we output keyof I, KeysOfUnion....

We also don't output keyof I_1 with the _1 suffix...

Can you include more than just a single line of context?

You've also linked to compile errors in index.d.ts files, but ts-proto generates *.ts files.

My guess is that the code in the ts-proto-generated *.ts files is fine, but something is happening on the compilation to index.d.ts, that is likely specific to your build process.

I'm just running tsc. Here is what my tsconfig.json looks like...

$ cat tsconfig.json 
{
  "extends": "../tsconfig.json",
  "compilerOptions": {
    "rootDir": "./src",
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "types": ["node", "@types/long"]
  },
  "exclude": ["node_modules", "dist"],
  "include": ["src/**/*"]
}

@stephenh Any idea here? Otherwise, I might resort to outputServices=grpc-js which works as intended but then, I would have to change a bunch of code to match the different casing of method names.

[stephenh]

No, no ideas. From the title, you're passing

opts: --ts_proto_opt="outputServices=generic-definitions,outputServices=default

I think the syntax would be "outputServices=generic-definitions,default" instead of repeating outputServices again, but not sure how that'd led to your compile error.
