Try moving position="sticky" below the bottomBarProps spread
Unfortunately, no, it still doesn't work and also removes the ability for users to change that prop.
In actuality, in this particular situation, I could omit those props, because they probably shouldn't be changing it, but it would be nice to have a workable solution for future components.
At this location, https://github.com/cchaos/eui/blob/feat/bottom_bar_in_page/src/components/bottom_bar/bottom_bar.tsx#L52, the following change is needed: position?: 'fixed'; -> position: 'fixed'; (removed the ?)
Reason: When TS validates an incoming value against the two sides of a union, it looks for unique key definitions. As it is right now, the two sides for position are undefined | 'fixed' and undefined | 'sticky' | 'static', and because both share the undefined value it is not unique. This prevents the expected validation, and also confused TS when it tried to understand the shape of bottomBarProps.
Which opens up a second issue, where the Partial in bottomBarProps?: Partial<EuiBottomBarProps>; again removes that distinction by making adding undefined back to position: 'sticky'. In this specific case the fix is simple: bottomBarProps?: EuiBottomBarProps;. This works because every prop in EuiBottomBarProps is already optional - except for position when opting into usePortal or affordForDisplacement. We'll need to explore other approaches for the case where a component provides default or un-overridable values.
Haha, apparently this one is being super tricky. Everything that you just said works and makes sense. Except now when I want to JUST adjust the prop allowed when position="fixed". So this:
<EuiBottomBar usePortal={false} />
But, even though position="fixed" is the default, TS complains telling me I need to add it.
❤️ Thank you all for your help and input. I've updated this gist to exemplify both the "finalized" component and usage that we can link to in our EUI wiki.
😕 It still likes to complain. Just differently...
