Typescript syntax for the creation of an empty array literal

[andrewpatto]

I can't quite work out the syntax for Typescript for creating empty arrays (as it turns out an array of tuples - though not sure this is important - I can't create empty arrays of strings either!)

The e.array() constructor requires an argument, but won't take an empty array as that argument. I totally get that I might have to also provide a type as no type info can be inferred from empty data - but can't work out the syntax.

I see an example of how to construct empty sets in the typescript client using cast..

e.cast(e.int64, e.set());

but what I think is the equivalent does not seem to work for arrays.

Any ideas? Thanks..

We should close this - I'll start a discussion in the edgedb-js repo (where I should have made this)
