Question: Getting the validator type

Describe the bug

How i can get the type of the result of a Validator?

Let's say i have a class like this:

export default class MyClass {
   handle(req: Request) {
        const data = await MyValidator.validate(req.body)

        ///OTHER CODE
   }

   private saveSomething(data : <VALIDATOR_RESULT_TYPE>) {
      // other code
   }
}

If i need to declare the type of the data in my method saveSomething i would need to declare a new type that is exaclty the same as the result of my validator.

there is some better way than declare same types over and over?

Thanks and great work!

Hey @kevinmelo! 👋🏻

You have to use Infer.

import vine from '@vinejs/vine'
import type { Infer } from '@vinejs/vine/types'

const schema = vine.object({
  username: vine.string(),
  email: vine.string().email(),
  password: vine
    .string()
    .minLength(8)
    .maxLength(32)
    .confirmed()
})

type UserRegistration = Infer<typeof schema>
/**
 * {
 *   username: string
 *   email: string
 *   password: string
 * }
 */
