错误TS2345：类型为'（a：Test，b：Test）=>布尔| 1'不能分配给类型'（a：Test，b：Test）=> number'的参数

Question

sorry for long subject, I just don't understand the response.

my code:

this.rezerwacjeFilteredByseaarchInput.sort(function (a, b) {
      if (a[5]===null) {
       // console.log(a[5]);
        return 1;

      }
        if (firmaSortOrder) {
          return a[5] > b[5];
        }
        else {
          return b[5] > a[5];
        }

    });

js throws: error TS2345: Argument of type '(a: Rezerwacja, b: Rezerwacja) => boolean | 1' is not assignable to parameter of type '(a: Rezerwacja, b: Rezerwacja) => number'. Type 'boolean | 1' is not assignable to type 'number'. Type 'true' is not assignable to type 'number'.

Answer 1

According to MDN description of sort function , sort compare function has to return a number. Your first condition returns number, but other two returns boolean values. Below code should work.

this.rezerwacjeFilteredByseaarchInput.sort(function (a, b) {
    if (a[5] === null) {
        return 1;
    }
    if (firmaSortOrder) {
        return a[5] - b[5];
    }
    return b[5] - a[5];
});

Answer 2

This is a typescript compilation error. the signature in rezerwacjeFilteredByseaarchInput is incorrect. It should only return number values (this is what the message is saying ) but in its body you can read that it can return the boolean values.
