How can I define multiple constructors in typescript? For example, I want to have the following code:

class Folder extends Asset { constructor(repositoryId: string, assetId: string) { super(); } constructor (folder: Folder) { } }

Is it possible to instantiate a class multiple ways in typescript?

    You can have multiple overloads "on type" level, but only single implementation allowed. (It will need to be able to handle string | Folder as a first parameter) typescriptlang.org/play?#code/… Commented Dec 22, 2021 at 14:45

You trt somenthing like this:

class Folder extends Asset { constructor(repositoryId: string, assetId: string); constructor(folder: Folder); constructor(repositoryId?: string, assetId?: string, folder?: Folder) if (!folder && repositoryId && assetId) super(); else { // To stuff } } }
