type-coverage

type-coverage

A CLI tool to check type coverage for typescript code

This tool will check type of all identifiers, the type coverage rate = the count of identifiers whose type is not any / the total count of identifiers, the higher, the better.

install

yarn global add type-coverage

usage

run type-coverage

arguments

name	type	description
-p, --project	string?	tell the CLI where is the tsconfig.json
--detail	boolean?	show detail
--at-least	number?	fail if coverage rate < this value
--debug	boolean?	show debug info
--strict	boolean?	strict mode
--cache	boolean?	enable cache

strict mode

If the identifiers' type arguments exist and contain at least one any, like any[], ReadonlyArray<any>, Promise<any>, Foo<number, any>, it will be considered as any too

Also, future minor release may introduce stricter type check in this mode, which may lower the type coverage rate

enable cache

save and reuse type check result of files that is unchanged and independent of changed files in .type-coverage directory, to improve speed

config in package.json

  "typeCoverage": {
    "atLeast": 99 // same as --at-least
  },

ingore line

Use type-coverage:ignore-next-line or type-coverage:ignore-line in comment(// or /* */) to ignore any in a line.

try {
  // type-coverage:ignore-next-line
} catch (error) { // type-coverage:ignore-line
}

FAQ

Q: Does this count JavaScript files?

Yes, This package calls Typescript API, Typescript can parse Javascript file(with allowJs), then this package can too.
