Can a Descriptor change type in Typescript?
I'm trying to make descriptor which can change return type in typescript but I don't know how to do this.
Here is the code and what I tried:
function changeReturnType()
symbol,
descriptor: TypedPropertyDescriptor<T>
) =>
const oldValue = descriptor.value;
return
...descriptor,
value(...argv)
// @ts-ignore
return String(oldValue.call(target, ...argv))
;
class Foo
@changeReturnType()
square ()
return 1;
let val = new Foo().square(); // I hope ts know here is string
console.dir(
val,
type: typeof val,
);
javascript node.js typescript types descriptor

This is currently not possible in TypeScript but you may look at this comment and modify hack described there to your needs (i.e. for method decorator usage).
The situation is different in linked comment. Returned type is ignored in class decorator, while in method decorator it's taken into account, so decorated method type is incompatible with original method.
