This is useful when we have a typed value. from is a typed alias of fromUnknown. | Type.from | packages/common/src/Type.ts:109 | | fromParent | readonly | (value) => Result<InferType<ParentType> & Brand<Name>, Error> | Creates T from Parent type. This function skips parent Types validations/transformations when we have already partially validated/transformed value. For example, TrimString.from checks whether a value is a string and trims it. If we only want to trim a string, we can use fromParent. ### Example // string & Brand<"Trimmed"> const value = TrimString.fromParent("a ").value; // as efficient as foo.trim() | Type.fromParent | packages/common/src/Type.ts:143 | | fromUnknown | readonly | (value) => Result<InferType<ParentType> & Brand<Name>, Error | ParentError> | Creates T from an unknown value. This is useful when a value is unknown. | Type.fromUnknown | packages/common/src/Type.ts:116 | | Input | public | InferInput<ParentType> | The type expected by from and fromUnknown. ### Example type StringInput = typeof String.Input; | Type.Input | packages/common/src/Type.ts:92 | | is | readonly | (value) => value is InferType<ParentType> & Brand<Name> | A type guard that checks whether an unknown value satisfies the Type. ### Example const value: unknown = "hello"; if (String.is(value)) { // TypeScript now knows valueis astring here. console.log("This is a valid string!"); } const strings: unknown[] = [1, "hello", true, "world"]; const filteredStrings = strings.filter(String.is); console.log(filteredStrings); // ["hello", "world"] | Type.is | packages/common/src/Type.ts:167 | | name | readonly | "Brand" | - | Type.name | packages/common/src/Type.ts:100 | | Parent | public | InferType<ParentType> | The parent type. ### Example type StringParent = typeof String.Parent; | Type.Parent | packages/common/src/Type.ts:96 | | ParentError | public | ParentError | The parent's error. ### Example type StringParentError = typeof String.ParentError; | Type.ParentError | packages/common/src/Type.ts:98 | | parentType | readonly | ParentType | - | - | packages/common/src/Type.ts:809 | | to | readonly | (value) => InferInput | The opposite of from and fromUnknown. This is useful to transform T back to its Input representation. For refine, it only removes the brand. For transform, it changes value. | Type.to | packages/common/src/Type.ts:125 | | toParent | readonly | (value) => InferType | The opposite of fromParent. | Type.toParent | packages/common/src/Type.ts:146 | | Type | readonly | InferType<ParentType> & Brand<Name> | The type this Type resolves to. ### Example type String = typeof String.Type; | Type.Type | packages/common/src/Type.ts:180 |
