Genrics support ?

[bilby91]

Hello,

I'm working on a ORM that heavily relies on Generics. I was wondering if the lib could be useful to introspect a object at runtime.

Use case:

interface ISchema {
  id: number,
  name: string
}

class Schema<T> { }

const schema = new Schema<ISchema>()

I want to be able to iterate over the properties of the generic type T, in the case of the schema object, ISchema.

Thanks!

You can, as far as the generics are not interfaces.

As a future goal, I'd like to give metadata to interfaces too, but as they disappear totally from the JavaScript runtime it's a bit harder than giving metadata to classes.

Is it enough for you to work with classes instead?
