Typescript ExifDateTime

[captDaylight]

I just started using exiftool-vendored, really incredible work.

I'm having some typescript issues after reading my first file. I'm getting CreateDate object successfully as ExifDateTime but when I try to call the method toDate my editor is saying it doesn't exist.

On the other hand, the method toString doesn't throw an error. Everything works correctly when I use ts-ignore.

Any idea why this method is not being recognized?

I'm on Mac OS 10.15.6, Node 16

• OS and version: [e.g. Mac OS X 10.11.6]
• Node.JS version [must be an active, current, or maintenance version]

Please check the typings: CreateDate could be:

1. undefined
2. an instance of string, if the date is encoded with an invalid value (some manufacturers seem to enjoy the date "0000:00:00")
3. an instance of ExifDateTime

You'll need to verify that CreateDate is an instanceof ExifDateTime before calling methods on that interface are allowed.
