parsed data is becoming never about zod HOT 10 OPEN

Before the if(!parsedData.data) statement, the type of parsedData can either be SafeParseSuccess or SafeParseError. However, after the if statement, it is resolved to SafeParseSuccess, which means its error property is undefined. Therefore, in parsedData.error && console.error(parsedData.error), it's console will not execute because the precondition is false.

Thanks for responding.

But the type of parsed data is becoming never not SafeParseSuccess and why "const parsedError = parsedData.error;
" line is not showing error.

You should hover over parsedData.error && ....

My doubt is if optional key part of schema failed at that case there would be error value right. even though parsedData.data exist.

from zod.

Which part do you mean?

from zod.

Imagine if the schema had 3 keys. 2 required and 1 optional key. If optional key part of schema failed, I'll still get parsedData.data containing two required keys right? And I'll also get parsedData.error right? since optional key part failed.

After digging a bit deeper, I found it's more complicated than I initially thought.

I've simplified some code to explain, and I hope this will be helpful.

I suggest checking parsedData.success instead of parsedData.data. Since parsedData is a discriminated union, using success will provide a more accurate type check.

Thank you. My goal is to do console.warn if only optional part of schema fails and do console.error if required part fail. What is the recommended way to do this?

from zod.

You can break the whole schema into requiredSchema and optionalSchema, no need to combine them togather.

Thank you. I'll do that.
