Add flag to change `catch` variables' default types to `unknown` #41013

DanielRosenwasser · 2020-10-09T15:43:27Z

This change adds a new flag called useUnknownInCatchVariables which changes the default type of catch clause variables from any (today's existing behavior) to unknown.

More specifically, under this flag, the following code

try {
  // ...
}
catch (err) {
  console.log(err.message);
}

would become equivalent to

try {
  // ...
}
catch (err: unknown) {
  console.log(err.message); // error: Property 'message' does not exist on type 'unknown'.
}

As a result, a user would receive the following error message from TypeScript:

Property 'message' does not exist on type 'unknown'.

To mitigate this, a user could explicitly perform runtime checks

try {
  // ...
}
catch (err) {
  // First check if we have an Error
  if (err instanceof Error) {
    console.log(err.message);
  }
}

or if that is too painful, a user could use a type assertion to any, or provide an explicit annotation on the catch clause variable with the type any to revert to the old default behavior.

try {
  // ...
}
catch (err: any) {
  console.log(err.message);
}

Fixes #41016.

It would be awesome if strict also enabled this flag; is that likely? (It's possible that this change does that already; but I'm on my phone so it's hard to tell 😅)

Hey @DanielRosenwasser, I've packed this into an installable tgz. You can install it for testing by referencing it in your package.json like so:

{
    "devDependencies": {
        "typescript": "https://typescript.visualstudio.com/cf7ac146-d525-443c-b23c-0d58337efebc/_apis/build/builds/102337/artifacts?artifactName=tgz&fileId=CB39C963580F3F2B857D3171C4A6770212DE0222B86B618B209B2F4B2E12A36B02&fileName=/typescript-4.3.0-insiders.20210505.tgz"
    }
}

and then running npm install.

There is also a playground for this build and an npm module you can use via "typescript": "npm:@typescript-deploys/[email protected]".;

commandLineParser entry should make the new flag a strict one, I think.

except for this, I'm not convinced we even need a new test, since we know that unknown narrows, and from some other tests, that strict changes the type of the catch variable to unknown.

I guess there's nothing to change here, except possibly dropping the narrowing tests from this test.

I added that style of code in because most of the purpose of this feature is to ensure that catch variables are narrowed, and that we error on usages if a user doesn't do so.

Meta: I was confused by the initial comment, because I wasn't familiar with unknown. I'd say that the first snippet, with catch (err) should not have a comment indicating the error (because IIUC without the new flag it doesn't produce an error), and the second snippet, with explicit catch (err: unknown) should have the error comment, because even without the new flag that's an error. (Right?)

@gvanrossum good call, thanks! Must have been an earlier copy/paste error.

👍🏼 Does what we talked about in the design meeting.

Side note: It's a little worrying that we don't already have more tests with both (1) catch and (2) strict: true.

Fixes the `no-throw-literal` rule configuration for TypeScript by enabling the appropriate rule in the TypeScript config, per [documentation](https://github.com/typescript-eslint/typescript-eslint/blob/master/packages/eslint-plugin/docs/rules/no-throw-literal.md#how-to-use). This is timely due to recent [changes to TypeScript](microsoft/TypeScript#41013).

Typescript 4.x changes the default behaviour of try catch and its err type from `any` to [`unknown`](microsoft/TypeScript#41013). This change ensures that where we rely on said variable it is cast accordingly as an `Error`.

Is there a way to type a function that it throws specific types? So that catch could know what to expect.

Like a func that can throw MyError, and then catch knows that e is MyError.

Should the flag useUnknownInCatchVariables also affect the return type of Promise.prototype.catch?
