I am using context API in nextjs and its completely working fine but the typescript give the error

I am currently working on a nextjs project where i need to use context API and the data coming from context API is completely fine but the typescript shows the error and I don’t know what to do.

Error:

Property openDialogFxn does not exist on type Object.

Property state does not exist on type Object.

My Code:

In AlertDialog.tsx component

export const AlertDialog = ()=> {
const data = useContext(AlertDialogContext);
 console.log(data.openDialogFxn) // this line give error but value is accessible 
console.log(data.state) // this line give error but value is accessible
}

In AlertContext.tsx:

export const AlertDialogContext = createContext<null | Object>(null);

In AlertDialogState.tsx:

export function AlertDialogProvider({ children }: any) {

  const [currentValue, setCurrentValue] = useState<boolean>(false);

  const openDialogFxn = () => {
    setCurrentValue(true);
  }

  const currentState = {
    state: currentValue,
    openDialogFxn
  }
  return (
    <AlertDialogContext.Provider value={currentState}>
      {children}
    </AlertDialogContext.Provider>
  );
}

I just Want to know that why i am getting the typescript error?

>Solution :

The type you have passed in null | Object throws an error because neither of properties you are accessing (state, openDialogFxn) exist on the type definition for Object.

You can solve this by defining a type:

type TAlertDialogContext = {
  state: boolean;
  openDialogFn: () => void;
};

And passing that to your call to createContext:

const AlertDialogContext = createContext<TAlertDialogContext | null>(null);

Here’s a Code Sandbox with the updated code.

Hope this helps!
