TS compiler complains when PropTypes property is set externally from the component.propTypes

[dominikj111]

I have this snippet where the ChippedMultiSelect.propTypes.value passes, but ChippedMultiSelect.propTypes.options doesn't. The const optionItemPropType contains same config as the ChippedMultiSelect.propTypes.value.

The TS compiler complains only about the options config where the issue is

Argument of type 'Requireable<InferProps<{ value: Validator<NonNullable<NonNullable<string | number | null | undefined>>>; label: Validator; }>>' is not assignable to parameter of type 'ValidationMap'.ts(2345)

const optionItemPropType = PropTypes.shape({
    value: PropTypes.oneOfType([PropTypes.string, PropTypes.number]).isRequired,
    label: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
});

ChippedMultiSelect.propTypes = {
    value: PropTypes.arrayOf(
        PropTypes.shape({
            value: PropTypes.oneOfType([PropTypes.string, PropTypes.number]).isRequired,
            label: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
        }),
    ),
    options: PropTypes.arrayOf(
        PropTypes.oneOfType([
            PropTypes.shape(optionItemPropType),
            PropTypes.shape({
                label: PropTypes.string,
                chips: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.shape(optionItemPropType)),
                options: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.shape(optionItemPropType)),
                items: PropTypes.arrayOf(PropTypes.shape(optionItemPropType)),
            }),
        ]),
    ),
};

I would to expect to be able to store the PropTypes config to the variable, is it not that case, or is that an issue?

Issues with TS aren't really something this project can fix, and the TS types are kept in the DefinitelyTyped repo, not here.
