So I have to create type for object that will always look like:

{ key1 : ['val1', 'val2', 'val3'], key2 : ['val4', 'val5', 'val6'] }

I want to ensure that values will always be an :string[] type but the key value will be changing, how can I approach that?

Is there something like

interface IXXX { [whatever] : string[] }

Doesn't TS have an "any" type? – Bartek Banachewicz Dec 17 '15 at 11:35
Cannot see how would that change anything. I know the type of my values, what I dont know is the name of my properties (keys) – mokatte Dec 17 '15 at 11:37
You can expose an `any -> string[]` interface then? – Bartek Banachewicz Dec 17 '15 at 11:37

This way `interface IXXX{ [key: string]: String[]}` – Sami Dec 17 '15 at 11:47
thanks Sami, exactly what I was looking for! – mokatte Dec 17 '15 at 12:06
