Destructuring object, ability to explicitly tell the variable is unused about typescript HOT 3 CLOSED

while omitting specific fields WITHOUT getting the ts error "no-unused-vars".

I'm not sure what you're seeing? I don't get an error. TypeScript is smart enough to understand that the var is used as part of the destructuring. Playground link

I imagine the solution looking like this, where unused vars are prefaced with an underscore:

It would need to be using the renaming syntax const { unusedVar: __unusedVar, ..., because properties may start with a leading underscore, and TypeScript will not emit different syntax (omitting the underscore).

This rule is eslint's, not TypeScript's. TypeScript unused variable checking already knows that this shouldn't be warned on.

You are right. Closing this issue.
