How to extend a generic type with a constructor function in Typescript?

function doSomething<T extends ?constructor?>(constructor: T) {
    ...
}

CodePudding user response:

You could do like this:

type Constructor = new (...args: any[]) => any;

class Base {
  baseProp = 'base value';
}

function doSomething<T extends Constructor>(constructor: T) {
    return class extends constructor {
      factoryProp = 'factory prop';
    }
}

const DerivedClass = doSomething(Base);

const instance = new DerivedClass;

console.log(instance.baseProp);
console.log(instance.factoryProp);
