Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

ts-transformer-enumerate

Build Status NPM version Downloads

A TypeScript custom transformer which enables enumerating members of the union of string literal types.

Requirement

TypeScript >= 2.4.1

How to use this package

This package exports 2 functions. One is enumerate which is used in TypeScript codes to enumerate members of the union of string literal types, while the other is a TypeScript custom transformer which is used to compile the enumerate function correctly.

How to use enumerate

import { enumerate } from 'ts-transformer-enumerate';

type Colors = 'green' | 'yellow' | 'red';
const Colors = enumerate<Colors>();

console.log(Colors.green); // 'green'
console.log(Colors.yellow); // 'yellow'
console.log(Colors.red); // 'red'

How to use the custom transformer

Unfortunately, TypeScript itself does not currently provide any easy way to use custom transformers (See https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/14419 for detail). It is recommended to use the custom transformer with webpack, Rollup, or ttypescript as described. You can also use the transformer with TypeScript compiler API as follows.

const ts = require('typescript');
const enumerateTransformer = require('ts-transformer-enumerate/transformer').default;

const program = ts.createProgram([/* your files to compile */], {
  strict: true,
  noEmitOnError: true,
  target: ts.ScriptTarget.ES5
});

const transformers = {
  before: [enumerateTransformer(program)],
  after: []
};
const { emitSkipped, diagnostics } = program.emit(undefined, undefined, undefined, false, transformers);

if (emitSkipped) {
  throw new Error(diagnostics.map(diagnostic => diagnostic.messageText).join('\n'));
}

As a result, the TypeScript code shown above is compiled into the following JavaScript.

"use strict";
Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
var ts_transformer_enumerate_1 = require("ts-transformer-enumerate");
var Colors = { green: "green", yellow: "yellow", red: "red" };
console.log(Colors.green); // 'green'
console.log(Colors.yellow); // 'yellow'
console.log(Colors.red); // 'red'

Note

  • The enumerate function can only be used as a call expression. Writing something like enumerate.toString() results in a runtime error.
  • enumerate does not work with a dynamic type parameter, i.e., enumerate<T>() in the following code is converted to an empty object({}).
class MyClass<T extends string> {
  enumerate() {
    return enumerate<T>();
  }
}
