Type Declaration in Styled Component CSS file giving off errors-CodePudding

I am trying to figure out why TypeScript is throwing an error in the styled component css file even though the type is obviously an object. Please see my code below:

export const OverlayCTA = styled.div<{
  ctaPosition?: object
}>`
  margin: 0.625rem 0 0;
  position: absolute;
  top: ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.top };
  left: ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.left };
  bottom:  ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.bottom };
  right:  ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.right };
  height: ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.height };
  @media (min-width: 992px) {
    margin: 3.375rem 0 0;
  }

ctaPosition is a prop containing an object that is passed from the component. As you can see, I declared the type as an object, however, I am getting the following error. Not sure why as it is an object type.

It is saying: Property 'height' does not exist on type 'object'.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

CodePudding user response：

You need to provide the full details for the ctaPosition type because typescript does not know that height or the other keys exists in object.

you can define it above like

export type CtaPositionType = {
  top: string; //or number whichever it is
  left: string; //or number whichever it is
  bottom: string; //or number whichever it is
  right: string; //or number whichever it is
  height: string; //or number whichever it is
}

export const OverlayCTA = styled.div<{
  ctaPosition?: CtaPositionType
}>`
  margin: 0.625rem 0 0;
  position: absolute;
  top: ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.top };
  left: ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.left };
  bottom:  ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.bottom };
  right:  ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.right };
  height: ${({ctaPosition}) => ctaPosition.height };
  @media (min-width: 992px) {
    margin: 3.375rem 0 0;
  }
