Description

If I generate a typescript-angular client with the latest 5.0 stable release, query the mentioned endpoint and try to use user.authority.has(UserAuthorityEnum.Admin) within a component I get the following error. (In Both Template/Component the Error occurs)

ERROR TypeError: _angular_core__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0__.ɵɵpipeBind1(...).authority.has is not a function

With further investigation it seems like the field authority is an Array instead of a Set. I am not sure if this is a bug or if this is a result of a faulty spec. I validated with the cli validator, as well as the swagger editor and the referenced validator. This behaviour was also present in the 5.0 beta 3 and I hoped it would be solved with the stable release.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? If there are any more specs/configs I can help you with, don’t hesitate to ask for them.

Generation Details

config.yaml (string enum doesn’t affect thus error, I tried it with the default value as well)

snapshot: true
npmName: '@repo/api-ts-client'
npmRepository: 'https://repo-url.com/repository/npm-internal/'
stringEnums: true

Steps to reproduce

generate client

java -jar openapi-generator-cli.jar validate -i api-docs.yaml
java -jar openapi-generator-cli.jar generate -o npm-client -g typescript-angular -c config.yaml -i api-docs.yaml
cd npm-client
npm install
npm run build
npm publish dist

install it within your angular project and try to call method and try to call user.authority.has(UserAuthorityEnum.Admin) on a fetched user. You can use this json for as it is my server response

{
"id":1,
"firstName":"Admin",
"lastName":"Admin",
"phoneNumber":"01101001001",
"userStatus":"ACTIVATED",
"facilityId":null,
"authority":["ADMIN"],
"childIds":[]
}

Look in the console and look for the mentioned problem.

I had the same/similar issue with typescript-fetch. --type-mappings=set=Array worked as a workaround. I have created a PR for typescript-fetch. I wasn’t sure if I should create a new issue. If referencing this one, was wrong, just let me know. As the different typescript generators all seem somewhat different, I have only fixed it for typescript-fetch so far.

This will change the interface to Array but ..FromJSON function still tries to use Set, which leads to type mismatch error.
