Typeable array

travis NPM version

TypeableArray provides a common TypeScript interface for Array and Typed arrays.

ReadonlyTypeableArray provides a readonly interface of TypeableArray.

TypeableArrayConstructor provides a common interface for constructors of Array and Typed arrays.

Why Typeable Arrays?

Typeable Arrays offer an easy way to write codes that handle both arrays and typed arrays. The client can then choose an array or a typed array accoring her needs.

Furthermore, TypeableArrayConstructor is fully generic. This makes TypeableArrayConstructor more type-safe than the provided interfaces in TypeScript library.

How to use

If you use one of the provided types in at least one exported interface, you have to place this package as production dependency:

npm install typeable-array

Otherwise, you can place this package as a dev dependency:

npm install --save-dev typeable-array

Once installed you just need to import it:

import { TypeableArray } from "typeable-array"
