Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The WebSocket declarations now type error events as ErrorEvent and add typed listener overloads for close, error, message, and open.

Changes

WebSocket event typing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Typed WebSocket event listeners
packages/bun-types/bun.d.ts, packages/bun-types/globals.d.ts
WebSocketEventMap.error now uses ErrorEvent. The global WebSocket interface adds typed and generic overloads for addEventListener and removeEventListener.

Extend the existing WebSocket type fixture.

The fixture already covers the four literal event names and both listener methods. Add an ErrorEvent listener that accesses type, message, and error. Add a string-typed event case for both addEventListener and removeEventListener.

Thanks for the PR. This overlaps with #36330, which was opened earlier for the same issue, so I am closing this one in favor of it.

Notes from comparing the two branches, in case they are useful:

  • Both PRs make the same WebSocketEventMap.error change in bun.d.ts. types: WebSocket error event is an ErrorEvent, not Event #36330 also updates the onerror property, which is the other place the event is typed (addEventListener and removeEventListener are generic over the event map, so the map change already covers them). With this branch, ws.onerror = event => event.message still fails to type-check.
  • The overloads added to the global interface WebSocket in globals.d.ts reference EventListenerOrEventListenerObject, which bun-types only declares as Bun.EventListenerOrEventListenerObject. Without lib.dom there is no global by that name, so skipLibCheck: false reports Cannot find name 'EventListenerOrEventListenerObject' at globals.d.ts:150 and :175, and since the fallback overload's parameter type no longer resolves, ws.addEventListener("custom", event => ...) loses its contextual type (event becomes implicitly any, where main infers Event). bun test test/integration/bun-types/bun-types.test.ts fails 8 of 15 cases with this branch merged onto main; that suite is the quickest way to check anything under packages/bun-types.
  • When lib.dom is loaded, bun-types deliberately defers to the DOM WebSocket declaration (interface WebSocket extends Bun.__internal.LibEmptyOrBunWebSocket {} in globals.d.ts), so types: WebSocket error event is an ErrorEvent, not Event #36330 leaves that case alone rather than overriding it.

Closing in favor of #36330.
