Before submitting the PR, please make sure you do the following

  • It's really useful if your PR references an issue where it is discussed ahead of time. In many cases, features are absent for a reason. For large changes, please create an RFC: https://github.com/sveltejs/rfcs
  • Prefix your PR title with [feat], [fix], [chore], or [docs].
  • This message body should clearly illustrate what problems it solves.
  • Ideally, include a test that fails without this PR but passes with it.

Tests

  • Run the tests with npm test and lint the project with npm run lint

The content of this PR originally belonged to #7224 that introduces a "more complex" TypeScript type.

TLDR: the changes of this PR are not required for #7224 but would improve the Svelte codebase.
(and I think I have found one or the oder "bug" while adding types)

  1. In order to ensure the type definition stays intact I wanted to introduce "type-tests", which are tests that just look at the type-definitions and don't test the actual implementation.
  2. But this requires a minimum TypeScript version of 3.9.x
  3. and the strict Compiler option set to true`
  4. because of missing type definitions inside some core functions the type-tests fail
  5. so we need to also add types for these core functions

There are still some type definitions missing and a few open TODOs.
I have opened this PR as a draft to be able to sl´plit the original PR.

Note: I have created a type called TODO which marks parts that need a deeper look either because the type-definitions need to be improved or it currently is unclear (to me) what the actual type should be.

Step 4 + 5 could be eliminated if the type definitions of createEventDispatcher are moved to a separate file.

Would we be breaking the published types by doing this for people who haven't upgraded TS in their projects to 3.9?

@Conduitry if the type definitions exposed by the Svelte repository (stores etc.) would only contain valid TypeScript 3.7 syntax, noone would be affected. Internal functions could still benefit from a few new typechecking features introduced in version

Since there are no real big changes made to the syntax, the risk is tolerable in my opinion.
Maybe the import type syntax could become an issue.

According to latest package-lock.json, already we are using 3.9.10.
https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte/blob/master/package-lock.json#L9038-L9043

Therefore I think we can update this now without regarding it as breaking change.

I think we bumped it at some point for something internal and said "we gotta be careful not to introduce anything that's not 3.x compatible which is the minimum version we actually support. Not sure what the real minimum version is though. But if this change only changes things internally but not externally, yes we could merge it.

We're going to be doing a Svelte 4 release soon with some housekeeping. We might as well upgrade to the latest TypeScript as part of it if you'd like to update this

@benmccann I'm done with the merge.

There are some TODO's left where I would need some help.

Can someone please confirm that it is wrong to pass 4 arguments?

if (store == null) {
return noop;
}
const unsub = store.subscribe(...callbacks);
// TODO: `store` does not accept an array of callbacks
const unsub: any = store.subscribe(...(callbacks as [any]));

I don't understand what happens here. Can someone please help?

Please help!

// 2. where casting is needed in order to satisfy TypeScript

Most things were typed after enabling TypeScript's strict mode.
Those TODO casts are not always needed currently, but I think enabling strict mode for the future makes sense.

Closing in favor of #8488 - I'll integrate the commented-out tests over to #7224
