[TypeScript]: Indexing type by two generics enums












0















I am trying to get the return type of a function from a type by an index, where the index is a generic type variable.



Code:



enum PROTOCOL { P1 = 0, P2 = 1 };
enum PROTOCOL_P1_SPACE { S11 = 0, S12 = 1 };
enum PROTOCOL_P2_SPACE { S21 = 0, S22 = 1 };

type OBJECT = {
[PROTOCOL.P1]: {
[PROTOCOL_P1_SPACE.S11]: { a: string },
[PROTOCOL_P1_SPACE.S12]: { b: Array<number> },
},
[PROTOCOL.P2]: {
[PROTOCOL_P2_SPACE.S21]: { c: number },
[PROTOCOL_P2_SPACE.S22]: { d: Buffer },
},
};

function getObject<
TProtocol extends PROTOCOL,
TSpace extends PROTOCOL_P1_SPACE | PROTOCOL_P2_SPACE
>(query: string): OBJECT[TProtocol][TSpace] { return call('getObject', query); };


TypeScript throws the error Type 'TSpace' cannot be used to index type 'OBJECT[TProtocol]'.
How to fix it?







P.S. VSCode can understand what i want:



const p1s1 = getObject<PROTOCOL.P1, PROTOCOL_P1_SPACE.S11>('p1s1');
const p2s1 = getObject<PROTOCOL.P2, PROTOCOL_P2_SPACE.S21>('p2s2');


It understand, that p1s1 is { a: string } and p2s1 is { c: number }

          You have to make the type of TSpace be dependent on the type of TProtocol. One way to achieve this would be like this:



          function getObject<
          TProtocol extends PROTOCOL,
          TSpace extends keyof OBJECT[TProtocol]
          >(query: string): OBJECT[TProtocol][TSpace]
