What is the purpose of this pull request?

  • Bug fix

What changes did you make?

An event map declared as an interface fails the Record<EventType, unknown> constraint because it lacks an index signature. Use a mapped constraint so named interface properties work while keeping string/symbol keys and event payload types checked. Fixes #209.

Is there anything you'd like reviewers to focus on?

The constraint also rejects numeric keys. The TypeScript regression reproduced TS2344 against the original source; the built declarations accept the interface and reject invalid payloads and unknown event names.

Validation: bundle, typecheck, type tests and lint passed. Mocha: 19 passed on Node 14, matching CI. The all-in-one npm test failed on local Node 22 in the legacy esm loader, before running Mocha; lint printed an existing React configuration warning.

AI assistance: Codex assisted with the implementation and tests.

Does this PR introduce a breaking change?

The event map constraint is relaxed for interfaces; existing string and symbol key and payload checks remain covered by the type tests.
