##Type definitions for Ramda


Testing:

# old way, easy
npm test
# without npm
./node_modules/typescript/bin/tsc --lib \"es2015\" --module commonjs test.ts --noEmit
# diffing, more detailed, with npm
npm run diff
# without
ts-node typecheck.ts test.ts 2>&1 | tee typecheck.txt

Pull requests are welcome!

##Usage

Install the typings for node using:

npm install @types/ramda --saveDev

If you use the package through a script tag, use:

npm install @types/ramda --saveDev --global

##Note on placeholders Due to incompatiblity problems with typescript's typing system, Ramda's placeholder typing is removed. For binary functions the same functionally can be achieved using R.flip. For example:

// using a placeholder ...
R.subtract(*placeholder*, 3);
// ... is the same as
R.flip(R.subtract)(3);

In Ramda almost all functions are curried. TypeScript does not natively support currying, so in cases where we've omitted a combination this might break. Example of a potential gap:

R.insert(2, 'x', [1,2,3,4])
R.insert(2)('x', [1,2,3,4])
R.insert(2, 'x')([1,2,3,4])
R.insert(2)('x')([1,2,3,4]) // => type error!

##Status Typing compatible with ramda version 0.22.1.

##Testing

• unix: npm test
• windows: tsc --lib es2015 --module commonjs test.ts --noEmit

##Todo

• compose: use like extend rather than forcing types to be the same?
• Curry?
• issue: allow separating manual/inferred generics to allow providing hints to e.g. pipe/compose
