Texto datilografado Tipo de data?

Como expresso datas no TypeScript? As datas não são do tipo TypeScript , então eu uso anyou object? Parece que haveria uma maneira "correta" de fazer:

let myDate: any = new Date();

Não consegui encontrar muita coisa no Google, apesar de ser uma pergunta tão simples.

A resposta é super simples, o tipo é Date:

const d: Date = new Date(); // but the type can also be inferred from "new Date()" already

É o mesmo que em qualquer outra instância de objeto :)

Cada classe ou interface pode ser usada como um tipo no TypeScript.

 const date = new Date();

já saberá sobre a datedefinição de tipo, como Dateé um objeto TypeScript interno referenciado pela interface DateConstructor.

E para o construtor que você usou, é definido como:

interface DateConstructor {
    new(): Date;
    ...
}

Para torná-lo mais explícito, você pode usar:

 const date: Date = new Date();

Porém, você pode estar perdendo as definições de tipo, Dateelas estão vindo para o meu exemplo da lib ES6, e na minha tsconfig.jsondefini:

"compilerOptions": {
    "target": "ES6",
    "lib": [
        "es6",
        "dom"
    ],

Você pode adaptar essas configurações para segmentar sua versão desejada do JavaScript.

A Data é a forma como uma Interface lib.es6.d.ts:

/** Enables basic storage and retrieval of dates and times. */
interface Date {
    /** Returns a string representation of a date. The format of the string depends on the locale. */
    toString(): string;

    toDateString(): string;

    /** Returns a date as a string value appropriate to the host environment's current locale. */

O texto datilografado reconhece a interface Data imediatamente, assim como você faria com um número, sequência ou tipo personalizado. Então, basta usar:

myDate : Date;
