type-coverage
A CLI tool to check type coverage for typescript code
This tool will check type of all identifiers, the type coverage rate
= the count of identifiers whose type is not any
/ the total count of identifiers
, the higher, the better.
use cases
- Show progress of long-term progressive migration from existing js code to typescript code.
- Avoid introducing accidental
any
by running in CI.
install
yarn global add type-coverage
usage
run type-coverage
arguments
name | type | description |
---|---|---|
-p , --project |
string? | tell the CLI where is the tsconfig.json (Added in v1.0 ) |
--detail |
boolean? | show detail(Added in v1.0 ) |
--at-least |
number? | fail if coverage rate < this value(Added in v1.0 ) |
--debug |
boolean? | show debug info(Added in v1.0 ) |
--strict |
boolean? | strict mode(Added in v1.7 ) |
--ignore-catch |
boolean? | ignore catch(Added in v1.13 ) |
--cache |
boolean? | enable cache(Added in v1.10 ) |
--ignore-files |
string[]? | ignore files(Added in v1.14 ) |
-h , --help |
boolean? | show help(Added in v2.5 ) |
--is |
number? | fail if coverage rate !== this value(Added in v2.6 ) |
--update |
boolean? | update "typeCoverage" in package.json to current result(Added in v2.6 ) |
strict mode
If the identifiers' type arguments exist and contain at least one any
, like any[]
, ReadonlyArray<any>
, Promise<any>
, Foo<number, any>
, it will be considered as any
too(Added in v1.7
)
Type assertion, like foo as string
, foo!
, <string>foo
will be considered as uncovered, exclude foo as const
, <const>foo
, foo as unknown
(Added in v2.8
), and other safe type assertion powered by isTypeAssignableTo
(Added in v2.9
)
Also, future minor release may introduce stricter type check in this mode, which may lower the type coverage rate
enable cache
save and reuse type check result of files that is unchanged and independent of changed files in .type-coverage
directory, to improve speed
ignore catch
If you want to get 100% type coverage then try {} catch {}
is
the largest blocked towards that.
This can be fixed in typescript with Allow type annotation on catch clause variable
but until then you can turn on --ignore-catch --at-least 100
.
Your catch blocks should look like
try {
await ...
} catch (anyErr) {
const err = <Error> anyErr
}
To have the highest type coverage.
ignore files
This tool will ignore the files, eg: --ignore-files "demo1/*.ts" --ignore-files "demo2/foo.ts"
config in package.json
"typeCoverage": {
"atLeast": 99, // same as --at-least (Added in `v1.4`)
"is": 99, // same as --is (Added in `v2.6`)
"cache": true, // same as --cache (Added in `v2.11`)
"debug": true, // same as --debug (Added in `v2.11`)
"detail": true, // same as --detail (Added in `v2.11`)
"ignoreCatch": true, // same as --ignore-catch (Added in `v2.11`)
"ignoreFiles": ["demo1/*.ts", "demo2/foo.ts"], // same as --ignore-files "demo1/*.ts" --ignore-files "demo2/foo.ts" (Added in `v2.11`)
"project": "tsconfig.json", // same as --project tsconfig.json or -p tsconfig.json (Added in `v2.11`)
"strict": true, // same as --strict (Added in `v2.11`)
"suppressError": true, // same as --suppressError (Added in `v2.11`)
"update": true // same as --update (Added in `v2.11`)
},
ignore line
Use type-coverage:ignore-next-line
or type-coverage:ignore-line
in comment(//
or /* */
) to ignore any
in a line.(Added in v1.9
)
try {
// type-coverage:ignore-next-line
} catch (error) { // type-coverage:ignore-line
}
add dynamic badges of type coverage rate

integrating with PRs
Using codechecks you can integrate type-coverage
with GitHub's Pull Requests. See type-coverage-watcher.

FAQ
Q: Does this count JavaScript files?
Yes, This package calls Typescript API, Typescript can parse Javascript file(with allowJs
), then this package can too.
