javascript - Property does not exist on type when using Or for multiple types - Stack Overflow

In my Angular ponent I have an Input that will be provided 1 of 2 types.

@Input() profile: UserProfileDetails | BusinessProfileDetails;

The profile template is simple and I'd like to use only the single template so I am not duplicating code. But because the types differ in properties I am receiving a template error.

export interface UserProfileDetails {
  createdOn: Date;
  id: string;
  name: string;
}

export interface BusinessProfileDetails {
  businessId: string;
  businessLocation: string;
  createdOn: Date;
  id: string;
  name: string;
}

and the code in my template:

<div>
  <h1>{{profile.name}}</h1>
  <div>{{profile.createdOn}}</div>
  <div>{{profile.id}}</div>
  <div *ngIf="profile?.businessId">{{profile.businessId}}</div>
  <div *ngIf="profile?.businessLocation">{{profile.businessLocation}}</div>
</div>

I believe I understand why I am receiving the error, but I'm unsure how to resolve the issue while still using the or condition @Input() profile: UserProfileDetails | BusinessProfileDetails;

The issue you are facing is that angular's Template type checking seems enabled.

With the related settings enabled, the types of the objects used within the view are validated. If by any chance the object would not have one of the properties, these validations would cause the error you are facing.

Specifically in your case because the interface UserProfileDetails does not have some of the properties used in the view, angular is considering the use of businessId or businessLocation an error.

there are some options to fix it:

• disable Template type checking (I would not remend that)
• use a generic type for the profile variable (I would also not prefer this one)
• use a pipe to cast the type of the object within the view. (my preference)

<div *ngIf="(profile | castProfileType)?.businessId">{{profile.businessId}}</div>
<div *ngIf="(profile | castProfileType)?.businessLocation">{{profile.businessLocation}}</div>

@Pipe({
    name: 'castProfileType',
})
export class CastProfileTypePipe implements PipeTransform {
  transform(value: profileObject) {
    return Object.keys(value).includes('businessId') ? <BusinessProfileDetails>value : <UserProfileDetails>value
  }
}

You can also try with:

<div *ngIf="profile.hasOwnProperty('businessId')">{{profile.businessId}}</div>
<div *ngIf="profile.hasOwnProperty('businessLocation')">{{profile.businessLocation}}</div>

You can only reference properties that are mon to both interfaces with |. Unintuitively | is called a union type in TypeScript.

Try an intersection type with & instead

You can set up a workaround using a function that check attribut on profile using in operator. Not the best solution but you'll be able to keep the interfaces union as you wished :

Component

getValue(
  attribut: string,
  obj: UserProfileDetails | BusinessProfileDetails
): any {
  if (attribut in obj) {
    return obj[attribut];
  }
}

Template

<div>
  <h1>{{ profile.name }}</h1>
  <div>{{ profile.createdOn }}</div>
  <div>{{ profile.id }}</div>
  <div>{{ getValue('businessId', profile) }}</div> <!-- can be improved using a check method bined with ngIf -->
  <div>{{ getValue('businessLocation', profile) }}</div>
</div>

go to tsconfig file and change strict mode (line 8 if I remember correctly) to false
