All data objects stored in the [[IArgdownResponse]] are simple object literals implementing an interface.
You can simply instantiate an argument, statement or relation by creating an object literal and adding properties to it.
To support runtime type checking, each of these objects has a required obj.type property with its own ArgdownTypes member as type.
Typescript will automatically narrow the type if you check if some object's type property is equal to a specific ArgdownTypes member.
Example
// Instantiate a new statement by using an object literal: constobj = { type:ArgdownTypes.STATEMENT, title:"Some title", text:"Some text" }
if(obj.type === ArgdownTypes.STATEMENT){ // Because IStatement is the only type with ArgdownTypes.STATEMENT as type of its `type`property // Typescript will now know that obj is of type IStatement, you don't have to cast it explicitely. obj.tags = ["some tag"]; obj.role = StatementRole.PREMISE; }
