Here is a sandbox showing the issue. =/src/index.ts

Input :

data.types = {
        starter: true,
        main: false,
        side: false,
        dessert: true,
        drink: false
    }

Desired output :

recipe.types = ["starter", "dessert"]

Solution :

type NewRecipeFormValues = {
    types: {
        starter: boolean,
        main: boolean,
        side: boolean,
        dessert: boolean,
        drink: boolean
    }
}

const postNewRecipe = (data: NewRecipeFormValues) => {
  let recipe = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data));
  recipe.types = Object.keys(data.types).filter(
    (key: keyof NewRecipeFormValues["types"]) => data.types[key]
  );
};

Problem : Typescript never shutups no matter what type I use.

Any help would be appreciated because I'm losing my mind

• 1 What's the point of JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data))? It produces a partial deep clone of data but you don't need one. – axiac Commented Aug 22, 2021 at 15:32
• @axiac no I do ? codesandbox.io/s/quizzical-cori-zrsio?file=/src/index.js I don't want to mutate data. – Azaghlou Commented Aug 22, 2021 at 15:54
• Nevermind indeed I don't. TIL – Azaghlou Commented Aug 22, 2021 at 16:02
• You don't mutate data. At least not in the code posted in the question. You do mutate data in let recipe = { ...data }; recipe.types.starter = true; – axiac Commented Aug 22, 2021 at 16:12
• Yeah I noticed that after testing but couldn't edit my ment. Thanks for pointing that out! It fixed a misunderstanding I had. – Azaghlou Commented Aug 22, 2021 at 18:39

The error happens because the piler cannot infer the runtime type of the key because Object.keys can return an arbitrary list of strings that are not necessarily keyof NewRecipeFormValues["types"] type.

Therefore, you need to explicitly tell the piler that key is indeed keyof NewRecipeFormValues["types"] so that it can calm down.

To do that, use type assertion.

type NewRecipeFormValues = {
  types: {
    starter: boolean;
    main: boolean;
    side: boolean;
    dessert: boolean;
    drink: boolean;
  };
};

const postNewRecipe = (data: NewRecipeFormValues) => {
  let recipe = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(data));
  recipe.types = Object.keys(data.types).filter(
    (key) => data.types[key as keyof NewRecipeFormValues["types"]]
  );
};

Check this playground.

As for why you cannot use key: keyof NewRecipeFormValues["types"] syntax, the linked documentation explains it better.
