Compile json schema to typescript typings

Input:

{"title":"Example Schema","type":"object","properties": {"firstName": {"type":"string"    },"lastName": {"type":"string"    },"age": {"description":"Age in years","type":"integer","minimum":0    },"hairColor": {"enum": ["black","brown","blue"],"type":"string"    }  },"additionalProperties":false,"required": ["firstName","lastName"]}

Output:

exportinterfaceExampleSchema{firstName:string;lastName:string;/**   * Age in years   */age?:number;hairColor?:"black"|"brown"|"blue";}

# Using Yarn:yarn add json-schema-to-typescript# Or, using NPM:npm install json-schema-to-typescript --save

import{compile,compileFromFile}from'json-schema-to-typescript'// compile from filecompileFromFile('foo.json').then(ts=>fs.writeFileSync('foo.d.ts',ts)// or, compile a JS objectletmySchema={properties:[...]}compile(mySchema,'MySchema').then(ts=> ...)

Seeserver demo andbrowser demo for full examples.

compileFromFile andcompile accept options as their last argument (all keys are optional):

A simple CLI utility is provided with this package.

cat foo.json| json2ts> foo.d.ts# orjson2ts foo.json> foo.d.ts# orjson2ts foo.json foo.d.ts# orjson2ts --input foo.json --output foo.d.ts# orjson2ts -i foo.json -o foo.d.ts
