Error when hoisting annotation to its own type in Slack thread.

Adding an object to annotations in a block is throwing an error when I hoist the annotation to it’s own type.
Uncaught errorCould not resolve jsonType of undefined. No parent type found
It’s referencing this simple object as a test.
If I simply add the annotation in-line everything works fine.
Any suggestions?

annotations: [
{ name: "href",
title: "URL",
type: "externalLink",
icon: MdLink
}
],

export default { name: 'externalLink',
title: 'External Link',
type: 'object',
fields: [
{ name:'foo',
title: 'foo',
type: 'string'
}
]
}
If I simply add the annotation in-line everything works fine.
annotations: [
{ name: "color",
title: "Text Color",
type: "color",
icon: MdFormatColorText,
},
{ name: 'externalLink',
title: 'External Link',
type: 'object',
fields: [
{ name:'foo',
title: 'foo',
type: 'string'
}
]
}
]
Any suggestions?

Hey User! Just to double check, did you add
externalLinkto your schema.js? If that’s not the issue, I believe that adding a new parameter (
icon) may actually create a new type.

This is how I’m importing objects into my schema
Jun 1, 2021, 5:38 PM

// Object Types
import * as objects from './objects'
const allObjects = Object.values(objects).map((myObject) => {return { ...myObject }})

_export_ default createSchema({ // We name our schema
name: 'default',
// Then proceed to concatenate our document type
// to the ones provided by any plugins that are installed
types: schemaTypes.concat([
/* Your types here! */
page,
section,
sectionBlock,
config,
theme,
nav,
sponsor,
])
.concat(allObjects)
.concat(allSections)
.concat(allConfigs)
.concat(allPlugs)
})

I just tried to import it manually into the file without using the allObjects constant and it worked. So that looks like the following, but it feels like a workaround.

// Manual object imports
import link from './objects/link'
…
// Then we give our schema to the builder and provide the result to Sanity
_export_ default createSchema({ // We name our schema
name: 'default',
// Then proceed to concatenate our document type
// to the ones provided by any plugins that are installed
types: schemaTypes.concat([
/* Your types here! */
page,
section,
sectionBlock,
config,
theme,
nav,
sponsor,
link,
// backgroundImage,
// simpleBlockContent,
// palette,
// typography,
])
.concat(allObjects)
.concat(allSections)
.concat(allConfigs)
.concat(allPlugs)
})

I’m really confused why manually importing works while using the allObject constant doesn’t.
