custom filter of Channels with their according Type

Hey so i would like a function similar to this:

function filterCh(channels:GuildBasedChannel[], [ChannelType.PrivateThread,ChannelType.PublicThread]:ChannelTypes[])

function filterCh(channels:GuildBasedChannel[], [ChannelType.PrivateThread,ChannelType.PublicThread]:ChannelTypes[])

that should return PrivateThreadChannel| PublicThreadChannel But it doesnt seem to work at all, i also tried with single types and its only working for single objs

KumarOP•2y ago

i tried... but its doesnt really solve any problem at least from what i thought... so how would you get the correct typeguard from the ChannelType enum ? i do understand but it wouldnt work for a dynamic channeltype and is the same as casting it pretty muhc

that actually should give an error, but it doesnt 🤔 same as type casting, yeah i know, so it really isnt a solution to my problem 🔝 mhm i dont understand how to use a generic here, you have an example passing the channeltype as generic ? ChannelType is an enum tho... i dont provide a type, i provide the ChannelType enum i cant understand, i m sorry. Can you use the variable name ? I use an array of enums through which the channel array should return the according type It does if you do it for a single object, in my example you can call single.ownerId if you do the same with the array it still returns GuildBasedChannel instead of PublicThreadChannel -- Furthermore i want to provide an array of enums so the enums are dynamic => i cant cast them... can you write me an example?
