Introduction

This tool can help you transform your JSON Schema to TypeScript interface very quickly🧲.

It's written by Rust(napi-rs) and only support in Node.js.

Install

npm

npm i @puffmeow/rusty-schema2ts

pnpm

pnpm i @puffmeow/rusty-schema2ts

yarn

yarn add @puffmeow/rusty-schema2ts

Quick start

It's really easy to use.

import { schema2ts } from '@puffmeow/rusty-schema2ts';

// The "options" we will introduce later
// schema2ts(schema: string, options?: IOptions): string
schema2ts(`your schema`, options);

Options

| key | type | required | default | description | | ----------------- | -------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | prefix | string | × | I | Interface prefix, if you don't like this, you can give it a empty string | | prefixOfEnum | string | × | T | Enum type prefix, if you don't like this, you can give it a empty string | | isGenComment | boolean | × | false | Whether to automatically generate comments | | isExport | boolean | × | true | Whether to export the interfaces and types | | indent | number | × | 2 | Code indent | | semi | boolean | × | true | Is enable semicolon | | optional | boolean | × | true | If this is enabled, it will generate the optional interface, default value is true | | ignoreKeys | string[] | × | [] | If you don't want to generate the type of an attribute in a root object, you can pass in the key name of the corresponding attribute.Like this, ignoreKeys: ["firstName", "lastName"]Schema2ts will ignore the two attributes and doesn't generate the type of them. | | explain | string | × | | Display some comments at the top of the code | | parseErrorMessage | string | × | // Parse schema error, please check your schema. | When parsing schema error, this message will be return |

Example:

Input schema

If you have a schema like this:

{
  "title": "Schema",
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "firstName": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "lastName": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "age": {
      "type": "number"
    },
    "hairColor": {
      "enum": [
        {
          "title": "hair color1",
          "value": "color1"
        },
        {
          "title": "hair color2",
          "value": "color2"
        },
        {
          "title": "hair color3",
          "value": "color3"
        }
      ],
      "type": "string"
    },
    "obj": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "key1": {
          "type": "string"
        },
        "key2": {
          "type": "number"
        },
        "key3": {
          "type": "boolean"
        }
      }
    },
    "arr": {
      "type": "array",
      "items": {
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {
          "arr1": {
            "type": "string"
          },
          "arr2": {
            "type": "number"
          },
          "arr3": {
            "type": "array",
            "items": {
              "type": "object",
              "properties": {
                "enen1": {
                  "type": "string"
                },
                "enen2": {
                  "type": "number"
                },
                "enen3": {
                  "type": "boolean"
                },
                "enen4": {
                  "type": "unknow type will transform to any"
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Output TypeScript interface

Finally it will output like this:

export type THairColor = 'color1' | 'color2' | 'color3';

export interface ISchema {
  firstName?: string;
  lastName?: string;
  age?: number;
  hairColor?: THairColor;
  obj?: IObj;
  arr?: IArr[];
}

export interface IObj {
  key1?: string;
  key2?: number;
  key3?: boolean;
}

export interface IArr {
  arr1?: string;
  arr2?: number;
  arr3?: IArr3[];
}

export interface IArr3 {
  enen1?: string;
  enen2?: number;
  enen3?: boolean;
  enen4?: any;
}

1.generate comment

schema2ts(`below json`, { isGenComment: true });

input json

{
  "title": "Schema",
  "type": "object",

  isGenComment: true,
  optional: false,
});
