Typescript compability

[volbrene]

Hello, nice project! Is is possible to add typescript compability for this project?

[PatrickJS]

yeah I can add that

[dwelch2344]

Any word on this? Happy to contribute if needed

[nmaves]

At this point, I think we would have to contribute to making this happen. Which I am fine with. But is this project even active anymore @PatrickJS ?

[nmaves]

I talked with @PatrickJS via twitter and he would love to get a PR in for TypeScript. @dwelch2344 you got any time to help with this?

[dwelch2344]

@nmaves absolutely! ping me on twitter at david_welch!

@PatrickJS @nmaves @dwelch2344 Did anything come of this?

[dwelch2344]

Timing's amazing. Sadly not, but we're just implementing our data loader strategy at work now and so this bubbled up last week.

We're on the fence of a PR/rewrite vs just contributing TypeDefs. The lib's small enough and the world of TS in 2024 is pretty appealing...

[PatrickJS]

@dwelch2344 if you want we can work together on the rewrite and then I can publish it as the new version and add whoever is working on it to the repo and package.

[dwelch2344]

@PatrickJS would love to! DMing ya on the bird

[sutt0n]

I'd be down to get involved as well. Bird handle is the same as GH.

[dwelch2344]

@sutt0n awesome! talked with @PatrickJS and we're gonna split the work.

I'm going to setup a fork with a clean branch and a simple tsconfig project. Will add a proposed interface for the loader lib, and a few unit tests.

Will open a PR so we can all comment on the desired shape / etc, then can hash out the impl.

Sound good?

[sutt0n]

@dwelch2344 Sounds good!

If I lose track of this it's because notifications are lost. And DM on twitter for fast response
