How to use Immutable JS with typed ES6 classes?

Question

Say I have classes Task and TaskGroup

class Task{
     constructor(public text:string){}
}

class TaskGroup {
    constructor(public title:string = "new task group", public tasks:Task[] = []){}
}

Then in my Angular 2 service I will create an Immutable List of TaskGroups

@Injectable()
class TaskService {
    taskGroups:Immutable.List<TaskGroup>;

    constructor() {
       this.taskGroups = Immutable.List<TaskGroup>([new TaskGroup("Coding tasks")]);
    }
}

This way only taskGroups List is immutable. Whatever is inside it isn't. Even if I do Immutable.fromJS(...) instead of Immutable.List<Board>(...) the nested objects are plain ol' Javascript objects.

Immutable JS doesn't supposed class inheritance (Inheriting from Immutable object with ES6 #562)

//can't do this!
class TaskGroup extends Immutable.Map<string, any>{
    constructor(public title:string = "new task group", public tasks:Task[]){}
}
//it complained about the class not having methods like set, delete etc

So how to create Immutable class objects?

Answer 1

You can do like this:

const TodoRecord = Immutable.Record({
    id: 0,
    description: "",
    completed: false
});

class Todo extends TodoRecord {
    id:number;
    description:string;
    completed: boolean;

    constructor(props) {
        super(props);
    }
}

let todo:Todo = new Todo({id: 1, description: "I'm Type Safe!"});

Not perfect but working.
