Date field types in TCollabThread are incorrect when used with Tiptap Collaboration

[soren121]

Description

The TypeScript types for TCollabThread in @hocuspocus/provider are inaccurate. The date fields (createdAt, updatedAt, deletedAt, and resolvedAt) are typed as number, but the collaboration service returns ISO 8601 strings for these fields.

As a result, I cannot parse these dates correctly in TypeScript without ugly casts (e.g. thread.createdAt as unknown as string).

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Using the Tiptap Comments extension, create a new thread.
2. Retrieve the threads using the subscribeToThreads function from @tiptap-pro/extension-comments.
3. In the callback, observe the data values of the threads items with console.log or the debugger.
4. Note that the date fields are strings, and not numbers as typed.

Expected behavior

I expect the data to match the specified type.

Environment?

• operating system: macOS
• browser: Firefox 137.0.2
• mobile/desktop: Desktop
• Hocuspocus version: 2.15.2

Additional context

We are using Collaboration Server 3.46.3 (on-premises).

I'm not sure whether to file this bug against Hocuspocus or the Collaboration Server.

Thank you for the report (and sorry for the delay)! I've just pushed a fix for this, which will be released soon at @tiptap-cloud/provider (the TiptapCollabProvider has moved there with the recent 3.0.0 release of Hocuspocus). Upgrade notes will follow with the 3.0.0 release of Tiptap soon.
