Unkwrap (unknown unwrap... sorry) is a Typescript library that makes it easier to deal with unknown types so you can make interfaces without contracts a bit more secure. It's currently a pet project that I'm playing with while I figure out better ways to deal with unknown types in Typescript. I'll probably be blogging about this too. All in all this was an experiment to get a basic Typescript library working with NPM and travis and proper coverage testing.
- Figure out what I want this library to actually do
- Potentially add validation
- Potentially give it a shape for an object and have it parse and return correct items and validations
- Add more emoji
Use npm
npm install unkwrapUse yarn
yarn add unkwrapimport { getString } from 'unkwrap';
const yourinput = 'hello' as unknown;
const item = getString(yourinput);
if (item) {
// we have done all the string checks for you
}- Email's in the package.json
None yet, but they will come
Pull requests are welcome. For major changes open an issue. This is a toy project but I hope it becomes a bit of a guide on how to smartly work with the unknown type.
Please make sure to update tests as appropriate.
