I've created a method that utilizes validatorjs for validation purposes. Here's an example of the code:
/**
* Checks if the string is a mobile phone number (locale options: ['zh-CN', 'zh-TW', 'en-ZA', 'en-AU', 'en-HK',
* 'pt-PT', 'fr-FR', 'el-GR', 'en-GB', 'en-US', 'en-ZM', 'ru-RU', 'nb-NO', 'nn-NO', 'vi-VN', 'en-NZ']).
* If the provided value is not a string, it returns false.
*/
export function isMobilePhone(value: string, locale: string): boolean {
return (
typeof value === "string" && vjsIsMobilePhone(value, locale)
);
}
When using VSCode, I encountered the following error related to the locale parameter:
[ts] Argument of type 'string' is not assignable to parameter of type 'MobilePhoneLocale'. (parameter) locale: string
The type 'MobilePhoneLocale' is from the package @types/validator. By assigning MobilePhoneLocale to the locale parameter, the method will look like this:
/**
* Checks if the string is a mobile phone number (locale options: ['zh-CN', 'zh-TW', 'en-ZA', 'en-AU', 'en-HK',
* 'pt-PT', 'fr-FR', 'el-GR', 'en-GB', 'en-US', 'en-ZM', 'ru-RU', 'nb-NO', 'nn-NO', 'vi-VN', 'en-NZ']).
* If the provided value is not a string, it returns false.
*/
export function isMobilePhone(value: string, locale: MobilePhoneLocale): boolean {
return (
typeof value === "string" && vjsIsMobilePhone(value, locale)
);
}
However, a new error is displayed by ts:
[ts] Cannot find name 'MobilePhoneLocale
What would be the correct way to implement the type of locale in the above function?
I have also opened an issue on GitHub regarding this problem.
