The new Fetch type definition included in TypeScript 2.2 defines everything in a overly simplified fashion, everything is just string or any:
interface Request extends Object, Body {
readonly cache: string;
readonly credentials: string;
readonly destination: string;
readonly headers: Headers;
readonly integrity: string;
readonly keepalive: boolean;
readonly method: string;
readonly mode: string;
readonly redirect: string;
readonly referrer: string;
readonly referrerPolicy: string;
readonly type: string;
readonly url: string;
clone(): Request;
}
declare var Request: {
prototype: Request;
new(input: Request | string, init?: RequestInit): Request;
}
interface RequestInit {
method?: string;
headers?: any;
body?: any;
referrer?: string;
referrerPolicy?: string;
mode?: string;
credentials?: string;
cache?: string;
redirect?: string;
integrity?: string;
keepalive?: boolean;
window?: any;
}
vs whatwg-fetch d.ts from DefinitelyTyped that has been carefully crafted and tested:
declare class Request {
constructor(input: RequestInfo, init?: RequestInit);
readonly method: string;
readonly url: string;
readonly headers: Headers;
readonly type: RequestType
readonly destination: RequestDestination;
readonly referrer: string;
readonly referrerPolicy: ReferrerPolicy;
readonly mode: RequestMode;
readonly credentials: RequestCredentials;
readonly cache: RequestCache;
readonly redirect: RequestRedirect;
readonly integrity: string;
readonly keepalive: boolean;
clone(): Request;
}
