Typescript version of firestore-counter does not work with Angular v14

[jwayne2978]

I am trying to use the firebase-counter extension on Angular v14. I have upgraded the dependencies in package.json as follows. This step is necessary as the uuid dependency is giving a lot of problems with v3.3.2.

{
  "name": "firestore-counter-web",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "main": "src/index.js",
  "author": "[email protected]",
  "license": "Apache-2.0",
  "description": "Web SDK to access sharded counters.",
  "dependencies": {
    "@types/uuid": "^8.3.4",
    "uuid": "^9.0.0"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "build": "npx webpack",
    "format": "prettier --write {,**/}*.{yaml,ts,md}"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "firebase": "^9.13.0",
    "prettier": "^2.7.1",
    "ts-loader": "^9.4.1",
    "typescript": "^4.8.4",
    "webpack": "^5.74.0",
    "webpack-cli": "^4.10.0"
  }
}

I then install this package into my Angular application as follows.

npm install ~/path/to/git/repo/extensions/firestore-counter/clients/web

The installation works but when I try to build my application ng build I get a bunch of errors. One of them is as follows.

Error: ../../extensions/firestore-counter/clients/web/src/index.ts:27:24 - error TS2694: Namespace '"/path/to/angular/app/www/node_modules/firebase/compat/index"' has no exported member 'firestore'.
27 private db: firebase.firestore.Firestore = null;

Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?
