How to change type in TypeScript?

Question

JavaScript

In short, I get a data object with one type. You need to return the same object, but with changed fields. When you try to change the fields of the vehicle swears. Using any is not an option.

UserEntity {
    id: number;
    name: string;
    email: string;
    profile: ProfileEntity[];
    contact: ContactEntity;
}

const a = UserEntity;
We get an error here:

a.profile = [1,2,3];
a.contact = 159;

Answer 1

You can use the | operator, Union Types. Example

class UserEntity {
    public name: number | string;
}

here name can be either a number or a string.

Answer 2

a.profile = [1,2,3] as any;
a.contact = 159 as any;
