How to handle props injected by HOC in React with Typescript?

Question

I created a simple HOC that inject a method translate in a component.

export interface IMessageProps {
  translate: (key: string) => string;

Edit

Typescript 3.2 breaks the code below. Until 3.2 spread operations with generic type parameters were not allowed except for jsx tags and were not very tightly checked there. This issue changes this. Spread operations are not more tightly checked and the this breaks out code. The simplest adjustment we can make is to use a type assertion on props :

export const message = 
(
    Component: React.ComponentType

): React.SFC>> => (props: Pick>) => {

    const translate = (key: string): string => messages[key];

    return ;
};

Before 3.2

You can just exclude the properties of IMessageProps from the returned SCF using Pick to pick properties from P and Exclude to exclude the keys of IMessageProps

export interface IMessageProps {
    translate: (key: string) => string;
}

export const message = 
(
    Component: React.ComponentType

): React.SFC>> => (props: Pick>) => {

    const translate = (key: string): string => messages[key];

    return ;
};


class MyComponent extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <>{this.props.translate('hello.world')}
        );
    }
}

const MyComponentWrapped = message(MyComponent);

let d =  // works

3.5 and above

You can use Omit instead of Pick>
