Record with key as string literal?

[estubmo]

Something like

const recordKeySchema = union([literal("foo"), literal("bar")]);
export const recordSchema = record(recordKeySchema, number());

Or something like

export const recordSchema = record<MyLiteralTypes, Number>(number());

Isn't object the better choice?

const Schema1 = object({ foo: number(), bar: number() });
const Schema2 = partial(object({ foo: number(), bar: number() }));

In my codebase I have objects with hundreds of keys, but they are constant. I'd rather not have to define each and every one of them in the schema.

export const SOURCE = {
  SITE1: {
    name: "Site 1",
    url: "https://www.site1.com",
    network: "Network 1"
  },
  SITE2: {
    name: "Site 2",
    url: "https://www.site2.com",
    network: "Network 1"
  },
  SITE3: {
    name: "Site 3",
    url: "https://www.site3.com",
    network: "Network 2"
  },
  SITE4: {
    name: "Site 4",
    url: "https://www.site4.com",
    network: "Network 2"
  },
  ...
} as const

Thanks for the info. I will check if it makes sense to generally allow any scheme originating from string, number or symbol. However, I will probably not be able to do this until next week.
