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

To use the toSafeInteger function from the Lodash library in TypeScript, you need to have the type definitions installed for the Lodash library. To do this, you can run the following command:

index.ts
npm install --save-dev @types/lodash
37 chars
2 lines

Once you have the type definitions installed, you can import the toSafeInteger function from 'lodash' and use it as follows:

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

const unsafeNumber = '123abc';
const safeNumber = toSafeInteger(unsafeNumber);
console.log(typeof safeNumber); // output: "number"
172 chars
6 lines

In the above example, we pass an unsafe number string '123abc' as a parameter to the toSafeInteger function, which converts the string to the safe integer 123. The typeof operator confirms that the returned value is now a number.
