Is there anything that compares the type of the object?

I want to test the type of the object not its value, more or less this:

component1: IndexComponent

if(component1: IndexComponent) {
   dosomething();
}
javascript angular typescript

This is probably what you want:

if(component1 instanceof IndexComponent) {
   dosomething();
}

I put in the Github for future reference.

Then the variable needs to have an object that is of the specified type for the condition to be true. it is possible to check any type that the object has, even looking at its hierarchy.

Operator documentation instanceof.

In Javascript you can use typeof but I don’t think that’s what you want.
