Reflectable Decorator¶

Type reflection depends on type metadata being emitted by the TypeScript compiler. However, the compiler does not emit type metadata unless there is a decorator applied.

In cases when you need to reflect on a class or method, and there are no decorators applied to it (or a parent implementation of it), then you can use the @Reflectable decorator.

@Reflectable()¶

A blank decorator that can be used to trigger metadata emit by tsc on a class or method. The parenthesis on this decorator are optional.

import { Reflectable } from '@baileyherbert/reflection';

@Reflectable
export class Example {

    @Reflectable
    public method() {

    }

}
