TypeScript and React: How to Properly Define Component Props with Intersection Types?
I'm deploying to production and Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy. I'm stuck on something that should probably be simple. I'm working on a React component in TypeScript, and I'm struggling with defining props that require properties from multiple interfaces. I want to ensure that my component enforces strict typing while still being flexible with the props it accepts. Here's an example of what I have: ```typescript interface User { id: number; name: string; } interface Settings { theme: string; notificationsEnabled: boolean; } type ComponentProps = User & Settings; const MyComponent: React.FC<ComponentProps> = ({ id, name, theme, notificationsEnabled }) => { return ( <div> <h1>{name} (ID: {id})</h1> <p>Theme: {theme}</p> <p>Notifications: {notificationsEnabled ? 'On' : 'Off'}</p> </div> ); }; ``` However, when I try to use `MyComponent`, I get a TypeScript behavior saying that the properties are missing: ``` Type '{ id: number; name: string; }' is missing the following properties from type 'ComponentProps': theme, notificationsEnabled ``` I've tried passing an object that includes both `User` and `Settings`, like so: ```typescript const userSettings: ComponentProps = { id: 1, name: 'John Doe', theme: 'dark', notificationsEnabled: true, }; <MyComponent {...userSettings} />; ``` But the behavior continues. It seems I might be misunderstanding how intersection types work in TypeScript, especially when used with React components. What am I missing here? Any guidance on best practices for structuring props with intersection types in React? I'm using TypeScript v4.5 and React v17.0. My development environment is Linux. My development environment is macOS. What's the best practice here? This is my first time working with Typescript stable.
