From 57f692c853bcd7df9179660b23250b4d4b875dcf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Hanno=20J=2E=20G=C3=B6decke?= Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2026 11:54:15 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] fix(types): make props optional when provided via animatedProps When using createAnimatedComponent with useAnimatedProps, props that are provided through animatedProps now become optional on the component itself. This fixes the TypeScript error where required props would still be required on the component even when they were being provided via animatedProps. Example: ```tsx interface ViewProps { requiredBorderRadius: number; } function MyComp(props: ViewProps) {} const AnimatedComp = Animated.createAnimatedComponent(MyComp); const animatedProps = useAnimatedProps(() => ({ requiredBorderRadius: sharedValue.get() })); // Previously errored, now works correctly ``` Changes: - AnimatedProps now takes optional second type parameter - useAnimatedProps preserves exact return type for better inference - Added AnimatedComponentType for generic animatedProps inference - Updated type tests to reflect new behavior Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 --- .../common/useAnimatedPropsTest.tsx | 111 ++++++++++++++---- .../common/useAnimatedRefTest.tsx | 31 +++-- .../createAnimatedComponent.tsx | 19 +-- .../src/helperTypes.ts | 70 ++++++++--- .../src/hook/useAnimatedProps.ts | 20 +++- 5 files changed, 185 insertions(+), 66 deletions(-) diff --git a/packages/react-native-reanimated/__typetests__/common/useAnimatedPropsTest.tsx b/packages/react-native-reanimated/__typetests__/common/useAnimatedPropsTest.tsx index 458c813d318e..47dff8ae95f9 100644 --- a/packages/react-native-reanimated/__typetests__/common/useAnimatedPropsTest.tsx +++ b/packages/react-native-reanimated/__typetests__/common/useAnimatedPropsTest.tsx @@ -4,9 +4,9 @@ /* eslint-disable @typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars */ import React from 'react'; import type { FlatListProps } from 'react-native'; -import { FlatList } from 'react-native'; +import { FlatList, View } from 'react-native'; -import Animated, { useAnimatedProps } from '../..'; +import Animated, { useAnimatedProps, useSharedValue } from '../..'; function UseAnimatedPropsTest() { function UseAnimatedPropsTestClass1() { @@ -77,61 +77,130 @@ function UseAnimatedPropsTest() { } function UseAnimatedPropsTestPartial2() { - const optionalProps = useAnimatedProps>(() => ({ + // Note: createAnimatedComponent(FlatList) uses AnimatedComponentType which supports + // the animatedProps inference.
