__tableName is undefined
Hey, I have a component that takes in an
id: Id<"blocks"> | Id<"tables">; and I want to have a quick way to check the type of id.
Currently I was doing: const isPageItem = id && id.__tableName === "blocks"; but __tableName seems to be undefined.
What should I do?2 Replies
Per https://docs.convex.dev/api/modules/values#genericid, IDs are strings at runtime and
__tableName only exists during TypeScript compilation.
