isUnsafeAssignment()

function isUnsafeAssignment(
   type,

   checker,

  receiver: ts.Type;
  sender: ts.Type;
 } | false

Does a simple check to see if there is an any being assigned to a non-any type.

This also checks generic positions to ensure there's no unsafe sub-assignments. Note: in the case of generic positions, it makes the assumption that the two types are the same.

Parameters

Parameter	Type
type	Type
receiver	Type
checker	TypeChecker
senderNode	null | Node

Returns

{ receiver: ts.Type; sender: ts.Type; } | false

false if it's safe, or an object with the two types if it's unsafe
