Expected Behavior

I want to provide a type for an endpoint that dont use all relations in the schema of the ORM. So i need to extract all primitive types (NonRelationalMembers ) and nest the type of the relational members manualy

export type BaseProps = string | number | boolean | symbol | bigint | null | Date | undefined ;

export type UserProject = { projectTeams: { projectDetail: Extract<ProjectDetail,BaseProps>; } & Extract<ProjectTeam,BaseProps>[]; } & Extract<Contact,BaseProps>;

or

Current Behavior

tsoa cannot resolve the type.

There was a problem resolving type of 'Extract<ProjectDetail, BaseProps>'. There was a problem resolving type of 'UserProject'. Generate routes error. GenerateMetadataError: Unknown type: NeverKeyword At unknown position... This was caused by '<unknown name>' at TypeResolver.resolve (C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\typeResolver.js:292:90) at TypeResolver.resolve (C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\typeResolver.js:269:106) at ReferenceTransformer.transform (C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\transformer\referenceTransformer.js:66:168) at calcReferenceType (C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\typeResolver.js:740:99) at TypeResolver.getReferenceType (C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\typeResolver.js:759:24) at TypeResolver.resolveTypeReferenceNode (C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\typeResolver.js:468:21) at TypeResolver.resolve (C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\typeResolver.js:293:21) at C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\typeResolver.js:120:118 at Array.reduce (<anonymous>) at TypeResolver.resolve (C:\Data\space\PWX_Taskmanagement\mis-scf-nodets-pwx-data\node_modules\@tsoa\cli\dist\metadataGeneration\typeResolver.js:119:85)
