I'm having a problem with typescript and Next Auth type definitions.
According to the docs I should be able to add my custom types to the NextAuth modules and so I did for the Profile
interface in the next-auth.d.ts
. It does add the type when I do profile.groups
but when I want to destructure it typescript complains that this type doesn't exists on Profile type... Any idea what I'm missing?
CodePudding user response:
This has to do with the fact that you can't destructure undefined
in JS/TS.
As you might have noticed, profile
parameter can be undefined
. Since this variable can take the undefined
value, typescript does not want to see it as "destructurable" because it can not destructure undefined value.
You could try to check for undefined
first and then cast the profile
as Profile
instead of Profile | undefined
.
