/** Extract all optional keys from the given type. This is useful when you want to create a new type that contains different type values for the optional keys only. @example ``` import type {OptionalKeysOf, Except} from 'type-fest'; interface User { name: string; surname: string; luckyNumber?: number; } const REMOVE_FIELD = Symbol('remove field symbol'); type UpdateOperation = Except, OptionalKeysOf> & { [Key in OptionalKeysOf]?: Entity[Key] | typeof REMOVE_FIELD; }; const update1: UpdateOperation = { name: 'Alice' }; const update2: UpdateOperation = { name: 'Bob', luckyNumber: REMOVE_FIELD }; ``` @category Utilities */ export type OptionalKeysOf = Exclude<{ [Key in keyof BaseType]: BaseType extends Record ? never : Key }[keyof BaseType], undefined>;
