    Methods

    • Implementation method for toString. needsParenthesis will be used to determine if the returned string should be wrapped in parenthesis.

      Returns string

    • Checks if this type is a reference type because it uses a name, but is intentionally not pointing to a reflection. This happens for type parameters and when representing a mapped type.

      Returns boolean

    Properties

    name: string

    The name of the referenced type.

    If the symbol cannot be found because it's not part of the documentation this can be used to represent the type.

    preferValues: boolean = false

    If set, will prefer reflections with ReflectionKinds which represent values rather than those which represent types.

    qualifiedName: string

    The fully qualified name of the referenced type, relative to the file it is defined in. This will usually be the same as name, unless namespaces are used.

    refersToTypeParameter: boolean = false

    If set, no warnings about something not being exported should be created since this may be referring to a type created with infer X which will not be registered on the project.

    type: "reference"

    The type name identifier.

    externalUrl?: string

    If this reference type refers to a reflection defined by a project not being rendered, points to the url that this type should be linked to.

    highlightedProperties?: Map<string, Models.CommentDisplayPart[]>

    Sometimes a few properties are more important than the rest of the properties within a type. This occurs most often with object parameters, where users want to specify @param foo.bar to highlight something about the bar property.

    Does NOT support nested properties.

    package?: string

    The package that this type is referencing.

    typeArguments?: Models.SomeType[]

    The type arguments of this reference.
