Component accepts `renderAs` and should accept any of its props












1















I have a component Button that takes a prop renderAs.



For example, I want to render it as a Link from react-router-dom, but the Button doesn't accept the props that Link accepts.



Generically, how could I get the Button to allow all props that the component defined in renderAs accepts?



Here is a link in my declaration file to the Button type.



Code:



Button is a simple function that renders an Element, and the Element looks like this:



const Element = React.forwardRef(({
className,
renderAs,
...allProps
}, ref) => {
const RenderAs = renderAs;
const props = modifiers.clean(allProps);
return (
<RenderAs
ref={ref}
className={classnames(className, modifiers.classnames(allProps)) || undefined}
{...props}
/>
);
});


(the question can then be assumed to be: how can I get an Element to take any props that the component to renderAs accepts?)



The (relevant) interface for Element in my declaration file looks like this:



interface ElementProps
extends Partial<
React.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<keyof JSX.IntrinsicElements>
> {
className?: string;
renderAs?: keyof JSX.IntrinsicElements | React.ComponentType<any>;
// [key: string]: any; // former attempt; but disables all prop checking
}
declare const Element: React.ForwardRefExoticComponent<
React.PropsWithoutRef<ElementProps> & React.RefAttributes<any>
>;
