Trouble with telling typescript the return type of fetch when using @sapphire/result

Hi there, I have a function that fetches an API using the native fetch function. The fetch is wrapped in Result.fromAsync(), and I wanted to do Result.fromAsync<Promise<APIResponse>> since I know what the API will return. The problem is, when doing Result.fromAsync<Promise<APIResponse>> Typescript says that Response is missing certain properties that I know the API will return. How would I tell Typescript I know that the fetch will return this?

Result.fromAsync<Promise<OMGLOLAPIResponse>>(
                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Argument of type 'Promise<Response>' is not assignable to parameter of type 'Awaitable<Resolvable<Promise<OMGLOLAPIResponse>, unknown>> | (() => Awaitable<Resolvable<Promise<OMGLOLAPIResponse>, unknown>>)'.
  Type 'Promise<Response>' is not assignable to type 'Promise<OMGLOLAPIResponse>'.
    Type 'Response' is missing the following properties from type 'OMGLOLAPIResponse': request, response ts(2345)

  fetch(`${OMGLOL_API_URL}/address/${ADDRESS}/purl`, {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      "Content-Type": "application/json",
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.OMGLOL_API_KEY}`
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      name: path,
      url: destination,
      listed: true
      })
  })
)

      listed: true
      })
  })
)

Should I have put this in #Coding since it's more TS related and not sapphire related

@nettech try this:

await Result.fromAsync<OMGLOLAPIResponse>(async () => {
  const res = await fetch(`${OMGLOL_API_URL}/address/${ADDRESS}/purl`, {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      "Content-Type": "application/json",
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.OMGLOL_API_KEY}`
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
        name: path,
        url: destination,
        listed: true
      })
  });

  return res.json();
});

await Result.fromAsync<OMGLOLAPIResponse>(async () => {
  const res = await fetch(`${OMGLOL_API_URL}/address/${ADDRESS}/purl`, {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      "Content-Type": "application/json",
      Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.OMGLOL_API_KEY}`
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
        name: path,
        url: destination,
        listed: true
      })
  });

  return res.json();
});

Assuming fetch is whatwg-spec compliant

yep that works my original solution did a straight return because i wanted to avoid defining variables that i was gonna use immediately

The problem is you have to send the request and parse it as json. Both are two different promises, and both can reject, but I assumed you wanted to handle them as one. So it would need to be in a callback. Also, you have a few type confusions

net-tech-OP•17mo ago

oh, which ones? also thanks for the quick reply

Lioness100•17mo ago

The most important one is, as I said, fetch doesn't return json. Also, the value in the generics should not be a promise, it should be the resolved value.
