this answer to: How to get argument types from function in Typescript.

Here's how:
Demo on TypeScript playground

type ArgumentTypes =
    F extends (...args: infer A) => any ? A : never;

type Props> =
    Params extends { length: 0 } ?
    {
        fetcher: F;
    } : {
        fetcher: F;
        params: Params
    };

function runTest(props: Props) { }

function test0() { }
function test1(one: number) { }

runTest({
    fetcher: test0
    // , params: [] // Error
});
runTest({
    fetcher: test1
    // Comment it, 
    //  or replace it with invalid args
    //  and see error
    , params: [1]
});
