No overload matches this call. Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'Signals'

问题

I am using typescript to build a micro service and handling signals as well. The code was working fine till few days ago but recently it started throwing error. Couldn't find a fix for the issue.

code for handling signals. It is just part of the file. src/main.ts

  enum signals {
    SIGHUP = 1,
    SIGINT = 2,
    SIGTERM = 15
  }
  const shutdown = (signal, value) => {
    logger.warn("shutdown!")
    Db.closeAll()
    process.exit(value)
  }
  Object.values(signals).forEach(signal => {
    process.on(signal, () => {
      logger.warn(`process received a ${signal} signal`)
      shutdown(signal, signals[signal])
    })
  })

When I do ts-node src/main.ts The following error throws and fails and exit.

    return new TSError(diagnosticText, diagnosticCodes)

Any fix would be appreciated. Or If you can tell why it was working earlier just 2 days ago and not now.

回答1:

I also had this strange issue, but I worked around it using type assertions (in my case using a string enum):

(Object.values(someEnum) as string[]).concat(otherStringArray);
