Generated TS clients emit ESM interop warning re-exporting @stellar/stellar-sdk #493

Description

@oceans404

Summary

All TS client packages generated by stellar scaffold (via npm run dev or equivalent) produce a Vite warning at runtime:

Unable to interop `export * from "@stellar/stellar-sdk"` in
packages/<contract>/dist/index.js, this may lose module exports.
Please export "@stellar/stellar-sdk" as ESM or use named exports instead,
e.g. `export { A, B } from "@stellar/stellar-sdk"`

The "may lose module exports" language suggests potential silent runtime breakage on certain SDK exports. Worth investigating.

Environment

  • Stellar CLI: v26.0.0
  • stellar-scaffold-cli: v0.0.24
  • @stellar/stellar-sdk: (pulled by template)

Steps to Reproduce

  1. stellar scaffold init my-project
  2. cd my-project && npm install && npm run dev
  3. Wait for clients to generate
  4. Observe warning in Vite output for each generated package

Suggested fix

Update the client generator template to use named re-exports rather than export *:

// instead of:
export * from "@stellar/stellar-sdk";

// use named exports of what the client actually needs:
export { Contract, rpc, xdr } from "@stellar/stellar-sdk";

Note: would like the maintenance label applied to this issue once it's created in the repo.
