TypeScript 联合类型问题

Question

I am new to TypeScript. I am trying to run a similar scenario but it is giving two errors. I don't know what I am missing here. Can anyone please help me to fix this issue?

interface Foo {
    [key: string]: number
};
interface Bar {
    [key: string]: { positive: number, negative: number }
}

// const obj: Foo | Bar = {
//     usa: { positive: 5, negative: 3 },
//     uk: { positive: 4, negative: 1 },
//     fr: { positive: 8, negative: 2 },
// }

const obj: Foo | Bar = {
    usa: 5,
    uk: 3,
    fr: 2,
}

Object.keys(obj).map(key => {
    const val = 'positive' in obj[key] ? obj[key].positive : obj[key];
    alert(val);
})

The two errors I am getting are:

Answer 1

You can use user defined type guards here to let the compiler know that your check is supposed to be narrowing down the type. This only works on variables though and not expressions so you have to assign it to a separate variable first.

interface Foo {
    [key: string]: number
};

interface PosNeg {
    positive: number
    negative: number
}

interface Bar {
    [key: string]: PosNeg
}

type FooBar = Foo | Bar

type PossibleValues = FooBar[keyof FooBar]

function isPosNeg(item: PossibleValues): item is PosNeg {
    return typeof item !== "number"
}

const obj: FooBar = {
    usa: 5,
    uk: 3,
    fr: 2,
}

Object.keys(obj).map(key => {
    const item = obj[key]
    const val = isPosNeg(item) ? item.positive : item;
    alert(val)
})
