How to get properties of a class with TypeScript?

To get properties of a class with TypeScript, we can create an instance of it and then use Object.getOwnPropertyNames on the instance.

For instance, we write

class A {
  private a1 = "";
  public a2 = "";
}

const a = new A();
const array = Object.getOwnPropertyNames(a);

to create an A instance.

Then we call Object.getOwnPropertyNames with A instance a to get all the non-inherited properties’ names’ in the array.
