gbdrt commented on issue #72: Adding type definitions for typescript URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-client-js/pull/72#issuecomment-329480529 There are some tools to generate the type definition from an API description which can give a rough first version, and help to maintain the project. Unfortunately the Openwhisk API description is not up-to-date with the implementation. I generated the type definitions manually using both the API description and a lot of tests. Then I added the definitions for the shortcut that are documented here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-client-js/blob/master/README.md I also overload some methods with advanced type annotation that are very useful. For instance if I use: ``` const res = ow.actions.invoke<In, Out>{ name: 'xxxx', blocking: true, result: true, params: p } ``` The compiler forces the parameter `p` to be of type `IN` and knows that the output is of type `Promise<Out>`. In the same vein there are multiple overloading of the `invoke` function because the output type depends on the value of the parameters `blocking` and `result`. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
