How to cast algolia search result to Type/Interface in typescript

Open Q&A

I am using Algolia search with Typescript. The search result looks like:

{
  hits: [
    {
      author: 'Author 1',
      eventCategory: 'Major',
      book: 'My Book1',
      eventStarTime: 1683081900,
      eventID: 2323213,
      objectID: 'o-871278123',
      _highlightResult: [Object]
    },
    {
      author: 'Author 1',
      eventCategory: 'Major',
      book: 'My Book2',
      eventStarTime: 1683084000,
      eventID: 2344244,
      objectID: 'o-871278456',
      _highlightResult: [Object]
    }
  ],
  nbHits: 2,
  page: 0,
  nbPages: 1,
  hitsPerPage: 20,
  exhaustiveNbHits: true,
  exhaustiveTypo: true,
  exhaustive: { nbHits: true, typo: true },
  query: '',
  params: 'filters=isAuthor+%3D+1',
  processingTimeMS: 1,
  processingTimingsMS: { request: { queue: 4, roundTrip: 4 } },
  serverTimeMS: 4
}

How can I parse this object to a custom interface? I am only interested in the following fields: author, eventCategory, book, eventStarTime, eventID, objectID

Ideally I want an array or list of my custom interface.

Thanks
