nested-keys-union

nested-keys-union is a TypeScript utility type that generates a union type representing all possible nested keys within a given nested object structure. It supports arrays, objects, and primitive types, allowing you to easily navigate and work with deeply nested structures.

Installation

npm install nested-keys-union

Usage

import { NestedKeys } from 'nested-keys-union';

// Example object with nested structure
const exampleObject = {
  name: 'John Doe',
  age: 30,
  address: {
    city: 'Example City',
    postalCode: '12345',
    contacts: [
      { type: 'email', value: '[email protected]' },
      { type: 'phone', value: '555-1234' },
    ],
  };
};

// Get the union type of all nested keys
type AllNestedKeys = NestedKeys<typeof exampleObject>;

// Usage example
const nestedKey: AllNestedKeys = 'address.contacts.0.value';

In this example, NestedKeys is used to obtain a union type AllNestedKeys representing all possible keys within the exampleObject structure. The resulting type AllNestedKeys can be used to ensure type safety when working with nested keys.
