Unable to infer types from Typescript programs

[harshitgarg22]

I am trying to infer the types of variables from a Typescript program for my custom CodeQL analysis. I am not able to get any types however. Is this a bug in the QL (I can file a bug report if so) or am I doing something wrong? Attaching my code below.

import javascript

from Expr var
where 
var.getLocation().getFile().getBaseName() = "doSomething.ts" or
var.getLocation().getFile().getBaseName() = "doSomething.js"
select var, var.getLocation(), var.getType()

returns

| var | col1 | col2 |
+-----+------+------+

for the program doSomething.ts

// Define a type for a person
type Person = {
    name: string;
    age: number;
};

// Function to greet a person
function greet(person: Person): string {
    return `Hello, ${person.name}! You are ${person.age} years old.`;
}

// Create a person object
const person: Person = {
    name: "John",
    age: 30,
};

// Call the greet function and log the result
console.log(greet(person));

Note that if I run this query without the getType predicate,

I get:

|          var          |       col1        |
