give type to accumulator with array reduce typescript

Question

I am generating object with time intervals with some func, it returns ["00:00","00:30","01:00"]... , but for my purpose i need to have obj-map {{"00:00": "00:00"}, {"00:30":"00:30"}, {"01:00":"01:00"}} I have trouble typing the reduce func below, how can i type acc or the return value of the func to avoid using any as type for acc?

generateTimeIntervals(0, 1440, 30).reduce((acc, val) => {
  acc[val] = val;
  return acc;
}, {})

Answer 1

You can pass in the type as an argument to reduce:

let result = generateTimeIntervals(0, 1440, 30).reduce<Record<string, string>>((acc, val) => {
  acc[val] = val;
  return acc;
}, {})
