Description
I am trying to build a generic type with @skunkteam/types that takes an existing (object) type and extends it with a number of fields (id in this example):
import { BaseObjectLikeTypeImpl, intersection, object, string, The, TypeImpl } from '@skunkteam/types';
export type ObjectType<ResultType> = TypeImpl<BaseObjectLikeTypeImpl<ResultType>>;
export type Person = The<typeof Person>;
export const Person = object('Person', { name: string });
export type RestDocument<T> = T & { id: string };
export function RestDocument<T>(type: ObjectType<T>): ObjectType<RestDocument<T>> {
return intersection(`RestDocument<${type.name}>`, [object({ id: string }), type]);
}
Unfortunately this throws a typescript error:
error TS2322: Type 'TypeImpl<IntersectionType<[TypeImpl<InterfaceType<{ id: TypeImpl<BaseTypeImpl<string>>; }, TypeOfProperties<Writable<{ id: TypeImpl<BaseTypeImpl<string>>; }>>>>, TypeImpl<...>]>>' is not assignable to type 'TypeImpl<BaseObjectLikeTypeImpl<RestDocument<T>>>'.

The following should work:
Objects that are passed into
objectto configure the validator are converted to TypeScript types on the fly (during compile time). During this conversion we ensure that anyreadonlyannotation of the properties is removed (using theWritabletype that is exported from the@skunkteam/typeslib). If we wouldn't do that, a readonly property in the config-object would result in a readonly property in the resulting type and that would be unreasonable I think.You have to forgive TypeScript for the error-message inception, we are stretching the limits here. Please try the suggested solution above and let me know.

Just came out of a call with @wvanderdeijl and we figured that this needs to be documented in the README. Maybe in the future we can think of a way to remove the mandatory use of
