How to write PickByValue type?

by

Assuming you intend Test to be this:

type Test = {
  includeMe: 'a',
  andMe: 'a',
  butNotMe: 'b',
  orMe: 'b'
};

and assuming that you want PickByValue<T, V> to give all the properties which are subtypes of V (so that PickByValue<T, unknown> should be T), then you can define PickByValue like this:

type PickByValue<T, V> = Pick<T, { [K in keyof T]: T[K] extends V ? K : never }[keyof T]>
type TestA = PickByValue<Test, 'a'>; // {includeMe: "a"; andMe: "a"}
type IncludedKeys = keyof PickByValue<Test, 'a'>; // "includeMe" | "andMe"

But if all you want is IncludedKeys, then you can do that more directly with KeysMatching<T, V>:

type KeysMatching<T, V> = {[K in keyof T]: T[K] extends V ? K : never}[keyof T];
type IncludedKeysDirect = KeysMatching<Test, 'a'> // "includeMe" | "andMe"
