打字稿重载函数

Question

I am attempting to call an overloaded function listen on a Server object. What seems to be happening is that the compiler is matching the wrong method to the call, even though there is a matching definition. I'm not sure how to even go about debugging this.

The Server object has the following definition

class Server extends events.EventEmitter {
        constructor(connectionListener?: (socket: Socket) => void);
        constructor(options?: { allowHalfOpen?: boolean, pauseOnConnect?: boolean }, connectionListener?: (socket: Socket) => void);

        listen(port?: number, hostname?: string, backlog?: number, listeningListener?: () => void): this;
        listen(port?: number, hostname?: string, listeningListener?: () => void): this;
        listen(port?: number, backlog?: number, listeningListener?: () => void): this;
        listen(port?: number, listeningListener?: () => void): this;
        listen(path: string, backlog?: number, listeningListener?: () => void): this;
        listen(path: string, listeningListener?: () => void): this;
        listen(options: ListenOptions, listeningListener?: () => void): this;
        listen(handle: any, backlog?: number, listeningListener?: () => void): this;
        listen(handle: any, listeningListener?: () => void): this;

...

The following compiles and runs fine:

server.listen(8080)

The following does not compile at all:

server.listen(8080, '0.0.0.0')

Intellisense reports

No overload matches this call.
  The last overload gave the following error.
    Argument of type '"0.0.0.0"' is not assignable to parameter of type '() => void'.ts(2769)
net.d.ts(193, 9): The last overload is declared here.

and the compiler similarly complains:

node_modules/ts-node/src/index.ts:261
    return new TSError(diagnosticText, diagnosticCodes)
           ^
TSError: ⨯ Unable to compile TypeScript:

Thanks in advance!

I have experienced the same issue today. Not sure about the real reason for this to happen but I have fixed it by passing arguments through the method call .

server.listen.call(server, 4000, '0.0.0.0', () => {
  console.log(server.address()) // output is { address: '0.0.0.0', family: 'IPv4', port: 4000 }
});

You have a type mismatch. process.env.PORT is of type string while the function accepts number. This should fix it:

const port = Number(process.env.PORT) || 3000;
