Stencil Version

2.13.0

Current Behavior

When using custom types in a component prop like this:

export const UTIL_BUTTON_VARIANT_LIST = ['primary', 'secondary', 'important'];
export type UTIL_BUTTON_VARIANT_LIST_TYPE = typeof UTIL_SPACING_TYPE_LIST[number];

/**
 * Style variation of the button.
 */
@Prop() variant: UTIL_BUTTON_VARIANT_LIST_TYPE = UTIL_BUTTON_VARIANT_LIST[0];

the generated readme file show always the type string:

Property	Attribute	Description	Type	Default
href	href	The button href	string	'#'
iconDirection	icon-direction	The icon direction of the button	"left" | "right"	'right'
iconName	icon-name	Icon name	string	''
size	size	The size of the button	string	UTIL_SPACING_TYPE_LIST[1]
variant	variant	Style variation of the button.	string	UTIL_BUTTON_VARIANT_LIST[0]

Expected Behavior

The readme should show the correct type, as well as the default value. The previous example should be:

Property	Attribute	Description	Type	Default
variant	variant	Style variation of the button.	UTIL_BUTTON_VARIANT_LIST_TYPE	'primary'

Steps to Reproduce

Use the previous code show in the Current Behavior section

Thanks for the issue! This issue has been labeled as needs reproduction. This label is added to issues that need a code reproduction.

Please reproduce this issue in an Stencil starter component library and provide a way for us to access it (GitHub repo, StackBlitz, etc). Without a reliable code reproduction, it is unlikely we will be able to resolve the issue, leading to it being closed.

If you have already provided a code snippet and are seeing this message, it is likely that the code snippet was not enough for our team to reproduce the issue.

Thanks @rwaskiewicz !! Could you estimate when it could be solved?

Hey @aresrioja10, I don't have an estimate for you at this time.

It turns out that this has been a problem for a long time, and it's a shame that it hasn't been solved yet
