Convert jQuery ready function to TypeScript

Viewed 26

I'm trying to replace some old code that uses jQuery, to the new way without it.

The old code, using the ready function:

function myFunc() { }

$(function() {
  myFunc();
});

I found this equivalent at "You Might Not Need jQuery":

function myFunc() { }

function ready(fn) {
  if (document.readyState != 'loading')
    fn();
  else
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', fn);
}
ready(myFunc);

I'm using TypeScript, so it complains about fn being implicit any. I'd like to avoid that.

I tried: fn: Function, but the compiler complains about the overloads to addEventListener, and I'm unsure how to handle it.

How do I avoid any?

function myFunc() { }

function ready(fn:() => void) {
  if (document.readyState != 'loading')
    fn();
  else
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', fn);
}
ready(myFunc);

You can type it like this.
