at the moment the only attribute types (from the static get properties()) are number, string, boolean, object, array.
this is of course problematic if you pass more specific data.
what i really desire and for which i'm waiting a long time now is a feature that we can say
static get properties(){
return {
users: { type: Array<UserModel>, reflect:true }
}
}
var products : ProductModel[]
<my-element .users="${products}"></my-element>
and it should give me a proper error in my error console. right now this is not happening and this is important especially when you have components representing a specific object. basically view models. e.g. in our project we have a product-tile representing a product and if you give a user it should fail.
it would be even better if you wouldn't even need to specify those static properties anymore, but simply read the correct type from the public property.
i even once tried it myself but failed due to javascript restrictions... as i don't know of a way to read public properties from a type name only. and i can't create an instance as creating instances of HTMLElements is not supported.
please think about a solution, that would be really, really, really helpful!
