  36 |               </ApolloProvider>

I'm importing it in my _app.tsx like so

import { GetServerSidePropsContext } from 'next';
import { useState } from 'react';
import { AppProps } from 'next/app';
import { getCookie, setCookie } from 'cookies-next';
import Head from 'next/head';
import { MantineProvider, ColorScheme, ColorSchemeProvider } from '@mantine/core';
import { NotificationsProvider } from '@mantine/notifications';
import { SessionProvider } from 'next-auth/react';
import { ApolloProvider } from '@apollo/client';
import client from '../apollo-client';

export default function App(props: AppProps & { colorScheme: ColorScheme }) {
  const { Component, pageProps } = props;
  const [colorScheme, setColorScheme] = useState<ColorScheme>(props.colorScheme);

  const toggleColorScheme = (value?: ColorScheme) => {
    const nextColorScheme = value || (colorScheme === 'dark' ? 'light' : 'dark');
    setColorScheme(nextColorScheme);
    setCookie('mantine-color-scheme', nextColorScheme, { maxAge: 60 * 60 * 24 * 30 });
  };

  return (
    <>
      <Head>
        <title>Family 5 Dashboard</title>
        <meta name="viewport" content="minimum-scale=1, initial-scale=1, width=device-width" />
        <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/icono.png" />
      </Head>

      <ColorSchemeProvider colorScheme={colorScheme} toggleColorScheme={toggleColorScheme}>
        <MantineProvider theme={{ colorScheme }} withGlobalStyles withNormalizeCSS>
          <NotificationsProvider>
            <SessionProvider session={session}>
              <ApolloProvider client={client}>
                <Component {...pageProps} />
              </ApolloProvider>
            </SessionProvider>
          </NotificationsProvider>
        </MantineProvider>
      </ColorSchemeProvider>
    </>
  );
}

App.getInitialProps = ({ ctx }: { ctx: GetServerSidePropsContext }) => ({
  colorScheme: getCookie('mantine-color-scheme', ctx) || 'dark',
});

I get the same error if I use pageProps.session

session provider error

    pages: {
        signIn: '/',

following Yilmaz suggestion I made a ts file like so

import {
  Session
} from 'next-auth';
import {
  JWT
} from 'next-auth/jwt';

declare module 'next-auth' {
  interface Session {
    // what ever properties added, add type here
    expires: string;
    user: {
      email: string;
      id: number;
      name: string;
      tipo: string;
    };
  }
}

then tried again on the _app file

import { GetServerSidePropsContext } from 'next';
import { useState } from 'react';
import { AppProps } from 'next/app';
import { getCookie, setCookie } from 'cookies-next';
import Head from 'next/head';
import { MantineProvider, ColorScheme, ColorSchemeProvider } from '@mantine/core';
import { NotificationsProvider } from '@mantine/notifications';
import { SessionProvider } from 'next-auth/react';
import { ApolloProvider } from '@apollo/client';
import client from '../apollo-client';
import { Session } from 'next-auth';

export default function App(props: AppProps & { colorScheme: ColorScheme }) {
  const { Component, pageProps } = props;
  const [colorScheme, setColorScheme] = useState<ColorScheme>(props.colorScheme);

  const toggleColorScheme = (value?: ColorScheme) => {
    const nextColorScheme = value || (colorScheme === 'dark' ? 'light' : 'dark');
    setColorScheme(nextColorScheme);
    setCookie('mantine-color-scheme', nextColorScheme, { maxAge: 60 * 60 * 24 * 30 });
  };

  return (
    <>
      <Head>
        <title>Family 5 Dashboard</title>
        <meta name="viewport" content="minimum-scale=1, initial-scale=1, width=device-width" />
        <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/icono.png" />
      </Head>

      <SessionProvider session={pageProps.session}>
        <ColorSchemeProvider colorScheme={colorScheme} toggleColorScheme={toggleColorScheme}>
          <MantineProvider theme={{ colorScheme }} withGlobalStyles withNormalizeCSS>
            <NotificationsProvider>
              <ApolloProvider client={client}>
                <Component {...pageProps} />
              </ApolloProvider>
            </NotificationsProvider>
          </MantineProvider>
        </ColorSchemeProvider>
      </SessionProvider>
    </>
  );
}

App.getInitialProps = ({ ctx }: { ctx: GetServerSidePropsContext }) => ({
  colorScheme: getCookie('mantine-color-scheme', ctx) || 'dark',
});

I still get this error

if I use <SessionProvider session={props.session}>

I don't get any error, but does not maintain the session or the user object, if u reload the page or change tabs the session is lost

after making the next.d.ts

and using <SessionProvider session={pageProps.session}>

the error that came out is:

create next-auth.d.ts in file at the root directory and add this:

import { Session } from "next-auth"
import { JWT } from "next-auth/jwt"

declare module "next-auth" {
  interface Session {
    // what ever properties added, add type here
    user: User
  }
}

Also at root directory, create next.d.ts and add this. from docs:

import type { NextComponentType, NextPageContext } from "next"
import type { Session } from "next-auth"
import type { Router } from "next/router"

declare module "next/app" {
  type AppProps<P = Record<string, unknown>> = {
    Component: NextComponentType<NextPageContext, any, P>
    router: Router
    __N_SSG?: boolean
    __N_SSP?: boolean
    pageProps: P & {
      /** Initial session passed in from `getServerSideProps` or `getInitialProps` */
      session?: Session
    }
  }
}

this is normal ts set up for this _app.tsx

 export default function App({ Component, pageProps }: AppProps) {

But since you defined your component like this

export default function App(props: AppProps & { colorScheme: ColorScheme }) {

we have to change the type definition in next.d.ts:

declare module 'next/app' {
  type AppProps<P = Record<string, unknown>> = {
    Component: NextComponentType<NextPageContext, any, P>;
    router: Router;
    __N_SSG?: boolean;
    __N_SSP?: boolean;
    session?: Session;
    pageProps: P ;
  };
}

so far is handling the typescript setup. the error in your code the way how you destructed the code

const {Component,pageProps}=props

this was wrong. Should be:

 const { Component, session, ...pageProps } = props;

...pageProps means spread the rest of the props. It actually looks like this

 const { Component, session,firstProps,secondProps } = props;

then you need to pass this session to the component too.

   <Component {...pageProps} session={session}/>

The easiest way (and wrong) to fix this error is add any type on line 33:

<SessionProvider session={(pageProps as any).session}>

Why is it wrong? Can you provide more context to what you mean? – Shingai Munyuki Nov 29 '22 at 09:20
