openapi-typescript generates TypeScript types from static OpenAPI schemas quickly using only Node.js. It is fast, lightweight, (almost) dependency-free, and no Java/node-gyp/running OpenAPI servers necessary.

The code is MIT-licensed and free for use.

Features

• ✅ Supports OpenAPI 3.0 and 3.1 (including advanced features like discriminators)
• ✅ Generate runtime-free types that outperform old-school codegen
• ✅ Load schemas from YAML or JSON, locally or remotely
• ✅ Native Node.js code is fast and generates types within milliseconds

Usage

First, generate a local type file by running npx openapi-typescript:

# Local schema
npx openapi-typescript ./path/to/my/schema.yaml -o ./path/to/my/schema.d.ts
# 🚀 ./path/to/my/schema.yaml -> ./path/to/my/schema.d.ts [7ms]

# Remote schema
npx openapi-typescript https://myapi.dev/api/v1/openapi.yaml -o ./path/to/my/schema.d.ts
# 🚀 https://myapi.dev/api/v1/openapi.yaml -> ./path/to/my/schema.d.ts [250ms]

⚠️ Be sure to validate your schemas! openapi-typescript will err on invalid schemas.

Then, import schemas from the generated file like so:

import { paths, components } from "./path/to/my/schema"; // <- generated by openapi-typescript

// Schema Obj
type MyType = components["schemas"]["MyType"];

// Path params
type EndpointParams = paths["/my/endpoint"]["parameters"];

// Response obj
type SuccessResponse = paths["/my/endpoint"]["get"]["responses"][200]["content"]["application/json"]["schema"];
type ErrorResponse = paths["/my/endpoint"]["get"]["responses"][500]["content"]["application/json"]["schema"];

🦠 Globbing local schemas

npx openapi-typescript "specs/**/*.yaml" --output schemas/

# 🚀 specs/one.yaml -> schemas/specs/one.ts [7ms]
# 🚀 specs/two.yaml -> schemas/specs/two.ts [7ms]
# 🚀 specs/three.yaml -> schemas/specs/three.ts [7ms]

☁️ Remote schemas

npx openapi-typescript https://petstore3.swagger.io/api/v3/openapi.yaml --output petstore.d.ts

# 🚀 https://petstore3.swagger.io/api/v3/openapi.yaml -> petstore.d.ts [250ms]

Thanks, @psmyrdek!
