Correct TypeScript type for useLinkProps To

[MadeinFrance]

Current behavior

Hi, I'm trying to use To in an external package but I lose the App typings define in the App folder as:

// app/navigation.d.ts

type Stack = MyRouterStack;

declare global {
  namespace ReactNavigation {
    interface RootParamList extends Stack {}
  }
}

// package/components/core/src/link/link.tsx

import {useLinkProps, type NavigationAction, type Link as NavLink} from '@react-navigation/native';

import React, {forwardRef, memo, useCallback} from 'react';
import {type TouchableOpacity} from 'react-native-gesture-handler';

import {BaseLink, type BaseLinkProps} from './base-link';

export interface LinkProps extends BaseLinkProps {
  to: React.ComponentProps<typeof NavLink>['to'];
  action?: NavigationAction;
}

export const Link = memo(
  forwardRef<TouchableOpacity, LinkProps>(function Link(
    {to, action, onPress, ...rest},
    ref,
  ) {
    const {onPress: linkOnPress} = useLinkProps({to, action});

    const pressHandler = useCallback(() => {
      linkOnPress();

      onPress?.();
    }, [linkOnPress, onPress]);

    return <BaseLink ref={ref} onPress={pressHandler} {...rest} />;
  }),
);

Expected behavior

to props should be strongly typed to MyRouterStack.

// No TypeScript error:

<Link
  to={{
    screen: 'some_incorrect_screen_string_name',
  }}
/>

Hey @MadeinFrance! Thanks for opening the issue. It seems that the issue doesn't contain a link to a repro.

The best way to get attention to your issue is to provide an easy way for a developer to reproduce the issue.

You can provide a repro using any of the following:

• Expo Snack
• TypeScript Playground
• GitHub repo under your username

A snack link is preferred since it's the easiest way to both create and share a repro. If it's not possible to create a repro using a snack, link to a GitHub repo under your username is a good alternative. Don't link to a branch or specific file etc. as it won't be detected.

Try to keep the repro as small as possible by narrowing down the minimal amount of code needed to reproduce the issue. Don't link to your entire project or a project containing code unrelated to the issue. See "How to create a Minimal, Reproducible Example" for more information.

You can edit your original issue to include a link to the repro, or leave it as a comment. The issue will be closed automatically after a while if you don't provide a repro.
