enonic-types

TypeScript types for Enonic XP

This library contains TypeScript types for Enonic XP.

Installing enonic-types

Install enonic-types from npm by running:

npm i --save-dev enonic-types

Add support to use typed import updating your tsconfig.json file (or src/main/resources/tsconfig.server.json if you are using the webpack-starter) with the "types" field:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "types": ["node", "enonic-types"]
  }
}

And you're ready to start coding!

Code generation

We recommend using this library together with the xp-codegen-plugin Gradle plugin. xp-codegen-plugin will create TypeScript interfaces for your content-types. Those interfaces will be very useful together with this library.

Example

We have an Enonic service that returns an article by id.

import { Request, Response } from "enonic-types/controller";
import { Article } from "../../site/content-types/article/article"; // 1
import contentLib from "/lib/xp/content"; // 2

export function get(req: Request): Response { // 3
  const content = contentLib.get<Article>({ key: req.params.id! });

  if (content !== null) { // 4
    const article: Article = content.data;

    return { status: 200, body: article }
  } else {
    return { status: 404 };
  }
}

1. We import an interface Article { ... } generated by xp-codegen-plugin.
2. If you added enonic-types to the types in your tsconfig.json or tsconfig.server.json (see above), TypeScript should now be able to add types to all the standard XP-libraries.
3. We use the imported Request and Response to control the shape of our controller.
4. content is of the type Content<Article> | null, so we have to do a null check before proceiding.

Using __non_webpack_require__

If your project is using __non_webpack_require__, you should update your types.ts file to add type support to it.

If you add (or replace the existing) __non_webpack_require__() function with the following code, it will automatically look up the correct interfaces for Enonic XP-libraries.

type LibMap = import("enonic-types/libs").EnonicLibraryMap;

declare const __non_webpack_require__: <K extends keyof LibMap | string = string>(path: K) => K extends keyof LibMap
  ? LibMap[K]
  : any;
