Typescript bindings describing the core data types and API interactions with DappBot. Extracted into their own repository in order to :

• Guarantee consistency across multiple client and server projects
• Make the overall DappBot codebase DRYer
• Share these types with our API customers

Full Changelog

There is full generated documentation from the source code hosted at eximchain.github.io/dappbot-types. Briefly, the types are grouped into nested namespaces in order to minimize both collisions and stuttering. They are nested like:

• DappBotTypes: Overall namespace, package's default export
  • Dapp: Interfaces, type guards, and factories related to the DappItem data type
  • User: Interfaces, type guards, and factories related to the User & auth data types
  • Responses: Interfaces and helper functions for our API responses
  • Methods: Each sub-module within here (Auth, Payment, Private, Public) contains all types related to that resource's available methods. Each method contains keys Args, Result, Response, HTTP, & Path. The Result corresponds to the res.data in a successful call, Response just wraps that shape in data/err.

As a consumer, you can import either import the full namespace from the top or instead use the import string to grab one of the more nested ones. All of the individual namespaces & types are declared within the spec folder, which you can directly refer to in your import. By example, below are two ways of getting at the same type:

// Grab the overall types object and drill down through
// the namespaces to get the interface we want
import Types from 'dappbot-types';
const argsFromType:Types.Methods.Auth.Login.Args = {
  username : 'wuddup',
  password : 'we here',
  yis : 'this prop is not legal and gets an error'
}

// Now we're going through the file structure to more
// directly grab the namespace with the types we're
// concerned about in this hypothetical file.
import { Login } from 'dappbot-types/spec/methods/auth';
const argsFromAuth:Login.Args = {
  username : "this object will have err because it's missing a property"
}
