Type alias H5PField

See

https://h5p.org/semantics

The H5PField type contains all the different types of fields that H5P's semantics.json describes.

When defining fields in semantics, the type property is used to mark what type of field it is. Each field type has its own set of properties and each field type is described in its own H5PField type.

H5P fields can be one of the following types:

• H5PFieldAudio
• H5PFieldBoolean
• H5PFieldFile
• H5PFieldGroup
• H5PFieldImage
• H5PFieldLibrary
• H5PFieldList
• H5PFieldNumber
• H5PFieldSelect
• H5PFieldText
• H5PFieldVideo

The InferParamTypeFromFieldType utility type can be used to infer the type of a field based on its type property:

Example

// semantics.json:
[{
  "label": "Name",
  "name": "myName",
  "type": "text"
}]

// content-type.ts:
import type { InferParamTypeFromFieldType } from "h5p-types";
import semantics from "./semantics.json"

type NameField = InferParamTypeFromFieldType<typeof semantics[0]>;
// `string`
Copy

The InferParamsFromSemantics utility type is a more advanced version which will infer the type of all fields in a semantics.json file:

Example

// semantics.json:
[{
  "label": "Name",
  "name": "myName",
  "type": "text"
},
{
  "label": "Age",
  "name": "myAge",
  "type": "number"
}]

// content-type.ts:
import type { InferParamsFromSemantics } from "h5p-types";
import semantics from "./semantics.json"

type Params = InferParamsFromSemantics<typeof semantics>;
// {
//   myName: string;
//   myAge: number;
// }
Copy
