Faced this error while using React-Hook-Form and YupResolver: Attempted import error: 'set' is not exported from 'react-hook-form' (imported as 'o')

Issue

I'm developing an app using Capacitor, Ionic, React and recently I faced the following error, while using React Hook Form and YupResolver for the first time:

When I try to run the project, I get this error:

Failed to compile
./node_modules/@hookform/resolvers/dist/resolvers.module.js
Attempted import error: 'set' is not exported from 'react-hook-form' (imported as 'o').

I want to create and validate a form for changing Password, submitting the new Password to an external API /change-password. The form will be like below:

Actual Password: ...
New Password: ...
Confirm new Password: ...

Submit

The component:

import {
  IonContent,
  IonPage,
  IonItem,
  IonLabel,
  IonButton,
  IonInput,
  IonRow,
  IonAlert,
  IonGrid,
  IonCol,
} from "@ionic/react";
import React, { useState } from "react";
import { useForm } from "react-hook-form";
import { yupResolver } from "@hookform/resolvers/yup";
import * as yup from "yup";
import axios from "axios";

 // form validation rules
  const validationSchema = yup.object().shape({
    password: yup
      .string()
      .min(8, "Password must be at least 8 characters")
      .required("Password is required"),
    newPassword: yup
      .string()
      .min(8, "Password must be at least 8 characters")
      .required("New Password is required"),
    confirmPassword: yup
      .string()
      .oneOf([yup.ref("newPassword"), null], "Passwords must match")
      .required("Confirm Password is required"),
  });

const ChangePassword: React.FC = () => {

//get the actual password from React Contenxt
  const {
    password,
    setPassword,
    alertMessage,
    setAlertMessage,
  } = React.useContext(AuthContext);

  const [newPassword, setNewPassword] = useState("");
  const [confirmPassword, setConfirmPassword] = useState(""); 

  // functions to build form returned by useForm() hook
  const { register, handleSubmit, errors } = useForm({
    resolver: yupResolver(validationSchema),
  });

  const onSubmit = () => {
    const data = {
      oldPassword: password,
      newPassword: newPassword,
      sourceId: 1,
    };

    axios
      .post("change-password", data)
      .then((response) => {
        return response.data;
      });
  };

  return (
    <React.Fragment>
      <IonPage className="ion-page" id="main-content">
        <IonContent className="ion-padding">
          <IonGrid>

                  value={password}
                  ref={register}
                  className={`form-control ${
                    errors.password ? "is-invalid" : ""
                  }`}
                  onIonChange={(e) => setPassword(e.detail.value!)}
                ></IonInput>
                <div className="invalid-feedback">

              <IonButton type="submit">
                Submit
              </IonButton>

export default ChangePassword;

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Solution

I didn't find a solution specifically for this error. So I decided to move on with the implementation and upgraded RHF from 6.x.x to the last version 7.1.1, since I'm using the latest version of Resolvers too. https://react-hook-form.com/migrate-v6-to-v7/ I also adjusted the implementation based on RHF version 7 documentation: https://react-hook-form.com/api/useform

Now it is working properly.
