Lesson5: TypeError: wallet.signTransaction is not a function

[ppoojjaa]

I am getting an error that signTransaction is not a function, my code is exactly similar to Patrick's code

Code:

const ethers = require("ethers");
const fs = require("fs-extra");
async function main() {

    const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider("http://172.31.224.1:7545"); 

    const wallet = new ethers.Wallet("36c720e13cee32ad6673c6a0e5fc52c44c16a2255e90e512d3ecfbcc67e1c6d8", provider); 

    const abi = fs.readFileSync("./SimpleStorage_sol_SimpleStorage.abi", "utf8");

    const binary = fs.readFileSync("./SimpleStorage_sol_SimpleStorage.bin", "utf8");

    console.log("Let's deploy with only transaction data: ");

    const tx = {
        nonce: 4,
        gasPrice: 20000000000,
        gasLimit: 1000000,
        to: null,
        value: 0,
        data: "",
        chainId: 1337,
    };

    const signedTxResponse = await wallet.signTransaction(tx);
    console.log(signedTxResponse);
}
main()
    .then(() => process.exit(0))
    .catch((error) => {
        console.error(error);
        process.exit(1);
    });

And I am getting this error:

I tried this, didn't work. But I updated my ethers again by doing yarn add ethers and the error got solved. There was a problem in my 'wallets.d.ts' file.
