Use Cases

Examples

export async function checkIPFS(ipfs): awaited ipfs is IIPFSPromiseApi
{
return true
}

if (await checkIPFS(ipfs))
{
// here will know ipfs is IIPFSPromiseApi
}

Checklist

My suggestion meets these guidelines:

• This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
• This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
• This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
• This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, etc.)
• This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.

Empieza con el ejemplo de TypeScript del issue y compara el comportamiento solicitado de los type predicates asíncronos con el comportamiento actual del compilador. Revisa los TypeScript design goals enlazados antes de decidir si la sintaxis y el control-flow narrowing son viables; se considera terminado cuando la propuesta tiene un comportamiento definido y aceptado, y tests que cubren el ejemplo.
