Incorrect use of Map type

[rintaun]

Problem

There are a number of types defined using Map<K, V>, but they are not actually instances of Map, which leads to type warnings such as:

Element implicitly has an 'any' type because type 'Map<string, Error[]>' has no index signature. Did you mean to call 'get' ?

Solution

As far as I can tell, these are all plain objects, so Map<K, V> should be replaced with Record<K, V>

I am attempting to register a user with data. But the data is always empty. I suspect this may be because the data is a Map type. Same thing if I try to use the updateUser, patchUser API.

import { FusionAuthClient } from '@fusionauth/typescript-client'

const client = new FusionAuthClient(
  'xxxx',
  'http://localhost:9011'
)

const main = async () => {
  try {
    const res = await client.register(undefined, {
      user: {
        username: 'bbbwer',
        password: 'rqergeq34aL',
        data: new Map([
          ['aaa', 'one'],
          ['bb', 'eee'],
          ['displayName', 'zERwje']
        ])
      },
      registration: {
        applicationId: '3149641a-81d8-4202-9715-7d5367ca94f1',
      }
    })

    console.warn('res', res)
  } catch (error) {
    console.warn('error', JSON.stringify(error, null, 2))
  }
}

main()

If I run the code. response is:

res ClientResponse {
  statusCode: 200,
  response: {
    registration: {
      applicationId: '3149641a-81d8-4202-9715-7d5367ca94f1',
      id: '0e29262e-fb33-4b13-8498-eccd22141f18',
      insertInstant: 1584104747639,
      usernameStatus: 'ACTIVE',
      verified: true
    },
    user: {
      active: true,
      id: '7abf7a10-13eb-4f26-8cb2-52338fdc7421',
      insertInstant: 1584104747566,
      passwordChangeRequired: false,
      passwordLastUpdateInstant: 1584104747601,
      tenantId: '3e75863b-17bd-712f-22c6-d884ba501412',
      twoFactorDelivery: 'None',
      twoFactorEnabled: false,
      username: 'bbbwer',
      usernameStatus: 'ACTIVE',
      verified: true
    }
  }
}

There is no data field.

@han4wluc try using a normal object instead of a Map, e.g.

{
  aaa: 'one',
  bb: 'eee',
  displayName: 'zERwje',
}

Yes, I have tried, but this way I get a type error.

[rintaun]

have you tried suppressing the error with @ts-ignore? if not, I would check to see if that works; that type error is incorrect because the Map type is being used incorrectly.

Yes, it works with @ts-ignore. Thank you. I will use this workaround for now.

Thanks @rintaun for the assist!

@tyduptyler13 Is this something we can incorporate into our client library to make this work a bit better?

[tyduptyler13]

This is something I can change in our client builder type mapping file. I will look into fixing it.

Published the change in 1.15.8. Let me know if you have any problems.
