@exodus/dependency-types v2.1.1

@exodus/dependency-types

This package ships types for dependency injection definitions, nodes, and features. The types are separate from @exodus/dependency-injection/@exodus/argo to avoid circular dependencies.

Install

yarn add @exodus/dependency-types

Consider using the -D flag in JS projects or TS projects that don't re-export any types from this package.

Usage

If you're working on a typescript feature, you should type your definitions or features with satisfies expressions. Here's an example of a definition:

import type { Definition } from '@exodus/dependency-types'

const batmobileDefinition = {
  // the type guarantees auto-complete and the correct shape of the definition
} as const satisfies Definition

Avoid using a direct type annotation as it changes the type of properties such as id or type to string instead of their concrete values. These are required for statically deriving the type of the exodus api. Definitions can be used as part of a feature or directly registered in a dependency-injection container instance.

To type a feature factory, use the Feature type:

import type { Feature } from '@exodus/dependency-types'

const batmobileFeature = () =>
  ({
    id: 'batmobile',
    definitions: [],
  }) as const satisfies Feature

A feature can be registered with @exodus/argo or @exodus/headless.

In JS packages, jsdocs can be used to document the types:

/**
 * @typedef {import('@exodus/dependency-types').Definition} Definition
 * @typedef {import('@exodus/dependency-types').Feature} Feature
 */

/** @type {Definition} */
const batmobileDefinition = {
  id: 'batmobile',
  type: 'module',
  // ...
}

const batmobileFeature = () => {
  /** @type {Feature} */
  const feature = {
    id: 'batmobile',
    definitions: [],
  }

  return feature
}
