Broken types with react-native@0.71.9+ and reanimated 3.2.0

[efstathiosntonas]

Description

react-native 0.71.9 and 0.71.10 were published today and the typings are now broken probably because of this PR. Downgrading react-native@0.71.8 eliminates the issue.

diffs: 0.71.8..0.71.9 and 0.71.9..0.71.10

TS2344: Type 'ViewStyle' does not satisfy the constraint 'AnimatedStyleProp<ViewStyle | TextStyle | ImageStyle>'.   Type 'ViewStyle' is not assignable to type 'AnimateStyle<TextStyle>'.     Types of property 'transform' are incompatible.       Type 'string | (PerpectiveTransform | RotateTransform | RotateXTransform | RotateYTransform | RotateZTransform | ... 7 more ... | MatrixTransform)[] | undefined' is not assignable to type 'AnimatedTransform | undefined'.

TS2345: Argument of type '() => { transform: { translateY: number; }[]; opacity: number; zIndex: number; }' is not assignable to parameter of type '() => AnimatedStyleProp<ViewStyle | TextStyle | ImageStyle>'.   Type '{ transform: { translateY: number; }[]; opacity: number; zIndex: number; }' is not assignable to type 'AnimatedStyleProp<ViewStyle | TextStyle | ImageStyle>'.     Type '{ transform: { translateY: number; }[]; opacity: number; zIndex: number; }' is not assignable to type 'AnimateStyle<ImageStyle>'.       Types of property 'transform' are incompatible.         Type '{ translateY: number; }[]' is not assignable to type 'never[]'.           Type '{ translateY: number; }' is not assignable to type 'never'.

const input = useRef<TextInput>(null); produces this on const AnimatedTextInput = Animated.createAnimatedComponent(TextInput); while using "@types/react": "18.2.7":

Hey! 👋

The issue doesn't seem to contain a minimal reproduction.

Could you provide a snack or a link to a GitHub repository under your username that reproduces the problem?

possible fix for useAnimatedStyle:

    export type TransformStyleTypes = TransformsStyle['transform'] extends
      | readonly (infer T)[]
      | undefined | string <---- added | string
      ? T
      : never;

at:

react-native-reanimated/react-native-reanimated.d.ts

Lines 69 to 74 in 2426f32

	export type TransformStyleTypes = TransformsStyle['transform'] extends
	| readonly (infer T)[]
	| undefined
	? T
	: never;
	export type AdaptTransforms<T> = {

for several other places:

    export type AnimateStyle<S> = {
      [K in keyof S]: K extends 'transform'
        ? AnimatedTransform | string <-------- added | string
        : S[K] extends ReadonlyArray<any>
        ? ReadonlyArray<AnimateStyle<S[K][0]>>
        : S[K] extends object
        ? AnimateStyle<S[K]>
        : S[K] extends ColorValue | undefined
        ? S[K] | number
        : S[K] | SharedValue<AnimatableValue>;
    };

at:

react-native-reanimated/react-native-reanimated.d.ts

Lines 79 to 89 in 2426f32

	export type AnimateStyle<S> = {
	[K in keyof S]: K extends 'transform'
	? AnimatedTransform
	: S[K] extends ReadonlyArray<any>

let me know if you want me to open a PR if these changes look good.

For context here's where the change introduced to React Native: facebook/react-native#37569

[Pnlvfx]

Same error when using useAnimatedStyle and transform:
const rStyle = useAnimatedStyle(() => ({
transform: [{translateX: translateX.value}],
}));

Type '{ translateX: number; }' is not assignable to type 'never'.

@Pnlvfx hey, did you used the patch from this comment #4548 (comment)?

[Pnlvfx]

I cannot use 3.2.0 because of
#4554.
I’m using 3.1.0

[stianjensen]

Are you still doing releases on the 2.x branch? I'm seeing the same issue there and wondered if a fix will be published there as well, or if I should just keep a patch on my end for now before I'm able to upgrade to 3.x
