10602 :: import js variables with two types

• domogled (orginal) [2023-11-04T10:44:15+01:00] view original

  Hi,

  I'm creating a wrapper over a javascript (typescrti) library where a parameter can have two values.

  
  export type MapOptions = {
  
  ...
      
      
      style: StyleSpecification | string;
  
  ...
  Run

  Direct implementation in Nim returns an error.

  MapOptions* {.importjs.} = ref object of JsRoot
        container*: cstring
        center*: LngLat
        zoom*: int
        style*: StyleSpecification | string
  Run

  map.nim(38, 7) Error: invalid type: 'StyleSpecification or string' in this context: 'MapOptions' for let stack trace: (most recent call last)

  What am I doing wrong?

  thanks
