Usage in tRPC

[khill-fbmc]

I wanted to post another use of your library 🔥

It is a simple use, but makes life easy for me. If I want more fields from the API, I just add to the type def, and the opt_fields grows accordingly and the returned type in the frontend is happy too 😃

Nice! Where does the validation occur in a scenario like this?

Sorry, still not super familiar with tRPC 😖

[ssalbdivad]

Would it be possible to just define the equivalent type directly and cast to that?

Obviously if you want to add runtime validation it will be helpful to keep the validator, but I'd still recommend writing TS directly in cases where you don't need it!

I am benefiting from the actual prop names existing at runtime, here:

Ahh, got it! Missed that. Makes sense! I infer types from objects like that a lot to keep runtime/compile type representations of my data in sync, nice way to leverage ArkType to do this directly 👍

Familiar enough to add an integration 😜

[ssalbdivad]

I mean luckily all I had to do was implement the type signature they expected on a validator, so that part I can do 😅

[khill-fbmc]

I think it would be really cool, to eventually get arktype featured alongside zod and the likes in tRPCs docs

Definitely! Planning to reach out to the team after our next release ⛵

God speed sir! You are doing great work 😃
