AI solution for TypeScript puzzle on BFE.dev
59. implement MapStringUnionToObjectUnion<U>
Solution:
type MapStringUnionToObjectUnion<U extends string> = { [K in U]: { value: K; };}[U];
Explanation:
- We define a generic type
Uwhich extendsstring. This ensures that the input to ourMapStringUnionToObjectUniontype will be a string union (e.g.'1' | '2'). - We use a mapped type to iterate over each string literal in the union type
U. - For each string literal
KinU, we define an object literal with avaluekey whose value is the string literalK. - We wrap this object literal in square brackets
[K in U]to create an array of such object literals, indexed by the string literals inU. - Finally, we index into this array with the generic type
Uto obtain a union of all the possible object types.
