How to fix Argument of type 'boolean' is not assignable to parameter of type 'string' in TypeScript

// Example error location
function setStatus(status: string): void {
  console.log("Status:", status);
}

const isActive = true;  // Boolean variable
setStatus(isActive);  // Error: boolean not assignable to string

function setStatus(status: string): void {
  console.log("Status:", status);
}

const isActive = true;
setStatus(isActive.toString());  // OK - converts to "true"

const isDisabled = false;
setStatus(isDisabled.toString());  // OK - converts to "false"

function logMessage(message: string): void {
  console.log(message);
}

const isEnabled = true;
logMessage(`${isEnabled}`);  // OK - converts to "true"

// More practical example with context
const hasAccess = false;
logMessage(`User has access: ${hasAccess}`);  // OK - "User has access: false"

// WRONG - passing boolean
setTheme(true);  // Error
setTheme(false); // Error

// CORRECT - pass string literals
setTheme("true");  // OK
setTheme("false"); // OK

// Or better yet, use descriptive strings
function setTheme(theme: string): void {
  console.log("Theme:", theme);
}

setTheme("dark");   // More semantic than "true"
setTheme("light");  // More semantic than "false"

function setUserStatus(status: string): void {
  console.log("User status:", status);
}

const isActive = true;
const statusString = isActive ? "active" : "inactive";
setUserStatus(statusString);  // OK - "active"

// Or inline
setUserStatus(isActive ? "enabled" : "disabled");  // OK

// More complex mapping
const isAdmin = false;
const roleString = isAdmin ? "administrator" : "user";
setUserRole(roleString);

// Option 1: Union type
function setFlag(value: boolean | string): void {
  const stringValue = typeof value === "boolean" ? value.toString() : value;
  console.log("Flag:", stringValue);
}

setFlag(true);      // OK
setFlag("custom");  // OK

// Option 2: Function overloads (more type-safe)
function processValue(value: boolean): void;
function processValue(value: string): void;
function processValue(value: boolean | string): void {
  if (typeof value === "boolean") {
    console.log("Boolean:", value.toString());
  } else {
    console.log("String:", value);
  }
}

processValue(true);    // OK
processValue("test");  // OK
