Model, created in itself static method, doesn't work properly when using legacy decorators transpiled by babel

https://codesandbox.io/s/mobx-keystone-static-method-problem-4thb2?file=/src/index.tsx

import { Model, tProp, model } from "mobx-keystone";

@model("BuggyModel")
class BuggyModel extends Model({
  value: tProp("1")
}) {
  static foo() {
    return new BuggyModel({});
  }
}

const a = BuggyModel.foo();
a.value = null as any; //don't throws!
console.log(a); //there is no modelInitializedSymbol in instance

const b = new BuggyModel({})
b.value = null as any; //throws, ok

I think it's coupled with babel, because I cannot reproduce it in pure ts tests. Possible related #18 #92

I think it is this babel decorator plugin bug: babel/babel#11131

Also related: #122

Yep, definitely it's babel bug. Currently i use external method and assign it into static property

static foo = foo

Can we fix this babel bug? I'll try to look into this.

If you were to fix the babel plugin that'd be awesome :) Not much that can be done on the mobx-keystone repo sadly

[Amareis]

Uh-oh, so I fixed plugin, but not pushed it yet.

That's awesome! Let's hope it gets merged soon 👍

Workarounds in that issue aren't very appealing. I think we'll just avoid static methods for now.

womp womp - is this still an issue?

[xaviergonz]

It never got fixed by babel, so yes. I don't know if it happens with the new (non legacy) decorators though.
