"Unresolved variable ..." for global object property name

Getting an inspection warning when trying to access a global from a inner function, if that makes sense. Here is the code:

Note that the `ref` in `global.ref` is getting a warning. Code runs fine though.

I'm probably going to be moving away from using global objects to using dotenv or similar but I'm curious why this is happening.

The IDE can't know what the global parameter type is; you can use JSDoc annotations to let it know what type is expected:

/**
 * 
 * @type {{ref: number}}
 */
const MY_GLOBAL = {
  ref:42
}

/**
 *
 * @param {MY_GLOBAL} global
 */
function soSomething(global) {
  console.log(global.ref);
}
