@allenjzhang could you help to review? |
Yeah I assume we should go through design discussions before we could merge this. What is the process of that? |
|
We can talk about it tomorrow in dpg meeting(or later one if we can't) don't think this needs to be brought up to the Wednesday one |
|
@timotheeguerin any update on this? |

Sorry, I was OOF the last 2 weeks, has there been agreement we needed this and this was the name we wanted?

Oh - I do not know. Do we need to bring up this topic in one of our typespec sync up meeting or your internal typespec sync up meeting?
In those meetings that I have participated in, this has not been a topic there.
Or maybe we could put this as an agenda in our next typespec sync up meeting on your wednesday night.

yeah would be good, do you need this for this release?

I think we probably need to differentiate this as we did with armResourceIdentifier - armResourceType.
There is definitely use for this in ARM, and since the type is needed to properly specify the allowedResourceType in armResourceIdentifier, it seems appropriate to put this here.

Yeah I agree the name should be armResourceType which makes more sense.
The second part is that you suggest we add a generic argument for allowed resource type? like this?
scalar armResourceType<AllowedResourceTypes extends ArmResourceIdentifierAllowedResource[] = never> extends string {}
I think this looks weird because this type is modeling the resource type of myself, if there is a limited list of resource types that this field is supporting, should we define a extensible enum based on resource type like this?
union SupportedResourceType extends armResourceType {
"Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines"
}
Well but I could see values for this because we could update the definition of Resource and TrackedResource to let them accept another argument of resource type like this:
model TrackedResource<Properties extends Model, ResourceType extends ArmResourceIdentifierAllowedResource> {
id: armResourceIdentifier;
type: armResourceType<ResourceType>;
properties: Properties;
}
so that we finally have explicitly defined resource type on resources, currently arm resources could have resource types but they are implicitly - we can infer them from the uri paths we built for resource related operations.

yeah I think using a union here instead to be more precise makes more sense instead of the armREsourceIdentifier which does that for a subset of the value.
and +1 on the name being armResourceType
