How to fix "property destructuring pattern expected" error?

Question

I'm getting this error:

Same error when I try to compile:

c:\...\tsx-test>ntsc app/main.tsx
app/components/Note.tsx(13,31): error TS1180: Property destructuring pattern expected.

But I don't know what it's expecting. What's the property syntax?

I'm pretty sure this works as-is in ES6. Is the syntax different in TypeScript?

Note that I'm using TypeScript 1.5.3.

I'm pretty sure this works as-is in ES6.

the {a, b, ...rest} = props pattern is supported by TypeScript now. Just update to the latest compiler and it will work without error.

Ah. Worked with Babel; didn't realize it was ES7. Ticket is [here](https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/2103) for anyone interested. – mpen Jul 10 '15 at 15:50

Is this still the case? 08-29-2016 ? Because I have this same issue today... – Simon Aug 29 '16 at 04:56

@Simon, unfortunately it's still not implemented. You may follow [#2103](https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/2103) and #[10727](https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/10727) – Maciej Bukowski Sep 16 '16 at 12:28
