how to use the matches function from the lodash library in typescript

To use the matches function from the Lodash library in TypeScript, first make sure you have lodash installed in your project:

npm install lodash

Then, in your TypeScript code, import the matches function and use it as follows:

index.ts
import { matches } from 'lodash';

interface User {
  name: string;
  age: number;
}

const user: User = { name: 'John', age: 30 };

const isJohn = matches({ name: 'John' });

if (isJohn(user)) {
  console.log('This user is John');
} else {
  console.log('This user is not John');
}

In this example, we define an interface User and a user object with a name and age property. We then create a function isJohn by calling matches with the object { name: 'John' }. Finally, we call isJohn with our user object, and depending on whether isJohn returns true or false, we log the appropriate message to the console.

Note that the matches function takes an object as its argument, which is used to create a partial function that will return true if the object being passed to it matches the properties and values in the initial object used to create the function.
