Imagine a scenario where the following code is present:
type QueryResult<ResultType = string, ErrorType = string> = {
result: ResultType,
} | {
errors: ErrorType,
}
So, if I want to initialize my result, I can proceed like this:
const myResult: QueryResult = {
result: "My result!",
};
In addition, when I need to modify the ResultType, it can be included in the generic type:
const myResult: QueryResult<number> = {
result: 10,
errors: null
};
However, what about changing the type value for errors? One way of achieving this is by doing the following:
// Although functional, specifying the default value is not ideal
const myErrorResult: QueryResult<string, MyErrorType> = {
errors: {
location: [1, 2],
message: "Invalid argument!",
}
};
Is there a way to skip specifying the ResultType? Is this even feasible? The main motive behind this query is to avoid providing default values for each generic type, especially when dealing with numerous generics. Attempts such as QueryResult<, string> and
QueryResult<ErrorType = MyErrorType>You can access the playground link here.
Thanks for your assistance!
