With tuple patterns and P.array() it is possible to exhaustively match variable length arrays – but not if they are marked readonly.

For example this classic recursive sum implementation passes type checking (ts-pattern 5.0.5, typescript 5.3.2):

const sum = (xs: number[]): number =>
  match(xs)
    .with([], () => 0)
    .with([P._, ...P.array()], ([x, ...xs]) => x + sum(xs))
    .exhaustive()

However when I change the parameter type from number[] to readonly number[]or ReadonlyArray<number>, I get a type error on .exhaustive():

Type 'NonExhaustiveError<readonly []>' has no call signatures.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'm honestly not quite sure how this could be solved, as I don't know enough about the details of the current implementation of exhaustiveness checking for tuples and arrays. Ideally I'd say just default the existing patterns to readonly, but that might cause issues when users actually want to mutate the matched array (I'd say "just don't do that" but I'm not sure if that conforms with the philosophy of this project).
An alternative might be to add something like a P.readonlyArray().

Describe alternatives you've considered

I don't know if there are any. The problem occurred to me when I had a readonly array that I want to pass to a function defined similar to sum in the example above. With the parameter type (xs: number[]) => ... I can not pass a readonly number[] to sum, as the type checker can not guarantee that sum won't mutate the array. Obviously a simple example like sum above could be implemented more effectively via .reduce() (or just a for loop) but given that pattern matching on tuples/arrays exists in ts-pattern I believe it should also cover their immutable variants.

PS: It is entirely possible that I've just missed something and there is already a solution to my problem, in which case I'd be happy to find out about it. Either way, thanks for this amazing project! :)

Thanks for opening this well written issue! This was simply an oversight, I would expect the matched value to be readonly [] in the handler function of the .with([], (x) => ...) expression here. I opened a PR to fix this.

This is technically a type-level breaking change, but I'm going to treat this as a patch since this behavior was unexpected and the fix doesn't affect the runtime.

### TS-Pattern v5 is finally out ❤️

### Breaking changes

#### `.with` is now evaluated eagerly

In the previous version of TS-Pattern, no code would execute until you
called `.exhaustive()` or `.otherwise(...)`. For example, in the
following code block, nothing would be logged to the console or thrown:

```ts
// TS-Pattern v4
type Input = { type: 'ok'; value: number } | { type: 'error'; error: Error };

// We don't call `.exhaustive`, so handlers don't run.
function someFunction(input: Input) {
  match(input)
    .with({ type: 'ok' }, ({ value }) => {
      console.log(value);
    })
    .with({ type: 'error' }, ({ error }) => {
      throw error;
    });
}

someFunction({ type: 'ok', value: 42 }); // nothing happens
```

In **TS-Pattern v5**, however, the library will execute the matching
handler as soon as it finds it:

```ts
// TS-Pattern v5
someFunction({ type: 'ok', value: 42 }); // logs "42" to the console!
```

Handlers are now evaluated **eagerly** instead of lazily. In practice,
this shouldn't change anything as long as you always finish your pattern
matching expressions by either `.exhaustive` or `.otherwise`.

#### Matching on Maps and Sets

Matching `Set` and `Map` instances using `.with(new Set(...))` and
`.with(new Map(...))` is no longer supported. If you want to match
specific sets and maps, you should now use the `P.map(keyPattern,
valuePattern)` and `P.set(valuePattern)` patterns:

```diff
- import { match } from 'ts-pattern';
+ import { match, P } from 'ts-pattern';

const someFunction = (value: Set<number> | Map<string, number>) =>
  match(value)
-   .with(new Set([P.number]), (set) => `a set of numbers`)
-   .with(new Map([['key', P.number]]), (map) => `map.get('key') is a number`)
+   .with(P.set(P.number), (set) => `a set of numbers`)
+   .with(P.map('key', P.number), (map) => `map.get('key') is a number`)
    .otherwise(() => null);
```

- The subpattern we provide in `P.set(subpattern)` should match all
values in the set.
- The value subpattern we provide in `P.map(keyPattern, subpattern)`
should only match the values matching `keyPattern` for the whole
`P.map(..)` pattern to match the input.

### New features

#### chainable methods

TS-Pattern v5's major addition is the ability to chain methods to narrow
down the values matched by primitive patterns, like `P.string` or
`P.number`.

Since a few examples is worth a thousand words, here are a few ways you
can use chainable methods:

##### P.number methods

```ts
const example = (position: { x: number; y: number }) =>
  match(position)
    .with({ x: P.number.gte(100) }, (value) => '🎮')
    .with({ x: P.number.between(0, 100) }, (value) => '🎮')
    .with(
      {
        x: P.number.positive().int(),
        y: P.number.positive().int(),
      },
      (value) => '🎮'
    )
    .otherwise(() => 'x or y is negative');
```

Here is the full list of number methods:

- `P.number.between(min, max)`: matches numbers between `min` and `max`.
-   `P.number.lt(max)`: matches numbers smaller than `max`.
-   `P.number.gt(min)`: matches numbers greater than `min`.
-   `P.number.lte(max)`: matches numbers smaller than or equal to `max`.
-   `P.number.gte(min)`: matches numbers greater than or equal to `min`.
-   `P.number.int()`: matches integers.
- `P.number.finite()`: matches all numbers except `Infinity` and
`-Infinity`
-   `P.number.positive()`: matches positive numbers.
-   `P.number.negative()`: matches negative numbers.

##### P.string methods

```ts
const example = (query: string) =>
  match(query)
    .with(P.string.startsWith('SELECT'), (query) => `selection`)
    .with(P.string.endsWith('FROM user'), (query) => `👯‍♂️`)
    .with(P.string.includes('*'), () => 'contains a star')
    // Methods can be chained:
    .with(P.string.startsWith('SET').includes('*'), (query) => `🤯`)
    .exhaustive();
```

Here is the full list of string methods:

-   `P.string.startsWith(str)`: matches strings that start with `str`.
-   `P.string.endsWith(str)`: matches strings that end with `str`.
- `P.string.minLength(min)`: matches strings with at least `min`
characters.
- `P.string.maxLength(max)`: matches strings with at most `max`
characters.
-   `P.string.includes(str)`: matches strings that contain `str`.
- `P.string.regex(RegExp)`: matches strings if they match this regular
expression.

##### Global methods

Some methods are available for all primitive type patterns:

- `P.{..}.optional()`: matches even if this property isn't present on
the input object.
- `P.{..}.select()`: injects the matched value into the handler
function.
- `P.{..}.and(pattern)`: matches if the current pattern **and** the
provided pattern match.
- `P.{..}.or(pattern)`: matches if either the current pattern **or** the
provided pattern match.

```ts
const example = (value: unknown) =>
  match(value)
    .with(
      {
        username: P.string,
        displayName: P.string.optional(),
      },
      () => `{ username:string, displayName?: string }`
    )
    .with(
      {
        title: P.string,
        author: { username: P.string.select() },
      },
      (username) => `author.username is ${username}`
    )
    .with(
      P.instanceOf(Error).and({ source: P.string }),
      () => `Error & { source: string }`
    )
    .with(P.string.or(P.number), () => `string | number`)
    .otherwise(() => null);
```

#### Variadic tuple patterns

With TS-Pattern, you are now able to create array (or more accurately
tuple) pattern with a variable number of elements:

```ts
const example = (value: unknown) =>
  match(value)
    .with(
      // non-empty list of strings
      [P.string, ...P.array(P.string)],
      (value) => `value: [string, ...string[]]`
    )
    .otherwise(() => null);
```

Array patterns that include a `...P.array` are called **variadic tuple
patterns**. You may only have a single `...P.array`, but as many
fixed-index patterns as you want:

```ts
const example = (value: unknown) =>
  match(value)
    .with(
      [P.string, P.string, P.string, ...P.array(P.string)],
      (value) => `value: [string, string, string, ...string[]]`
    )
    .with(
      [P.string, P.string, ...P.array(P.string)],
      (value) => `value: [string, string, ...string[]]`
    )
    .with([], (value) => `value: []`)
    .otherwise(() => null);
```

Fixed-index patterns can also be set **after** the `...P.array`
variadic, or on both sides!

```ts
const example = (value: unknown) =>
  match(value)
    .with(
      [...P.array(P.number), P.string, P.number],
      (value) => `value: [...number[], string, number]`
    )
    .with(
      [P.boolean, ...P.array(P.string), P.number, P.symbol],
      (value) => `value: [boolean, ...string[], number, symbol]`
    )
    .otherwise(() => null);
```

Lastly, argument of `P.array` is now optional, and will default to
`P._`, which matches anything:

```ts
const example = (value: unknown) =>
  match(value)
    //                         👇
    .with([P.string, ...P.array()], (value) => `value: [string, ...unknown[]]`)
    .otherwise(() => null);
```

#### `.returnType`

In TS-Pattern v4, the only way to explicitly set the return type of your
`match` expression is to set the two `<Input, Output>` type parameters
of `match`:

```ts
// TS-Pattern v4
match<
  { isAdmin: boolean; plan: 'free' | 'paid' }, // input type
  number // return type
>({ isAdmin, plan })
  .with({ isAdmin: true }, () => 123)
  .with({ plan: 'free' }, () => 'Oops!');
//                              ~~~~~~ ❌ not a number.
```

the main drawback is that you need to set the ***input type***
explicitly ***too***, even though TypeScript should be able to infer it.

In TS-Pattern v5, you can use the `.returnType<Type>()` method to only
set the return type:

```ts
match({ isAdmin, plan })
  .returnType<number>() // 👈 new
  .with({ isAdmin: true }, () => 123)
  .with({ plan: 'free' }, () => 'Oops!');
//                              ~~~~~~ ❌ not a number.
```

#### Features

##### Better inference for `match` and `.with`

##### match

When using match with an inline array, it will now infer its type as
tuple automatically, even when not using `as const`. This means that
exhaustiveness checking will also improve in this case:

```ts
function f(a: boolean, b: boolean) {
  // infered as `[boolean, boolean]`
  return (
    match([a, b])
      // we can pattern match on all cases
      .with([true, true], () => false)
      .with([false, true], () => true)
      .with([true, false], () => true)
      .with([false, false], () => false)
      // ✅ Failed in TS-pattern v4.1 but works in v4.2!
      .exhaustive()
  );
}
```

##### `.with(...)`

Thanks to the help of [@&#8203;Andarist](https://togithub.com/Andarist),
this release fixes a long-standing issue of `.with`.
Until now, patterns like `P.array`, `P.union` or `P.when` didn't have
proper type inference when used in `.with()` directly. Here are a few
behaviors that use to be incorrect and work now:

```ts
match<'a' | 'b'>('a')
  .with(P.union('this is wrong'), x => x)
  //            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  //            ❌ no longer type-check in v4.2
  .otherwise(x => x)

match<'a' | 'b'>('a')
  .with(P.array(123), x => x)
  //            ~~~
  //            ❌ no longer type-check in v4.2
  .otherwise(x => x)

match<'a' | 'b'>('a')
  .with(P.when((x) => true), x => x)
  //            👆
  //    used to be of type `unknown`, now `'a' | 'b'`
  .otherwise(x => x)
```
