graphql-zeus VS json-schema-to-typescript

When I asked this in StackOverflow over a year ago I reached the solution of using graphql + graphql-zeus.

You can think of GraphQL Zeus as Prisma for the frontend: it writes GraphQL queries out of JavaScript objects and produces the proper return types.

graphql-zeus: You write your graphql queries using a JavaScript object like syntax. Looks cool, but I think it's too big of a burden on the team to have to give up writing queries using graphql-tag/gql.

https://github.com/graphql-editor/graphql-zeus generates subscription code and in generated code you'll find simple apiSubscription function you can use/copy

You can do this with GraphQL too:

I did a 5 min talk about these newer breeds of codegen tools (where it's a single client SDK that does automatic return type inference based on the input args), it's really neat:

Compile JSONSchema to TypeScript type declarations

Nice! Lots of tricky edge cases to do this right: there’s ambiguity in the JSON Schema spec, version-to-version changes, many popular community conventions that don’t adhere to the spec, etc. Feel free to check out the tests to understand some of these: https://github.com/bcherny/json-schema-to-typescript (shameless plug — I have maintained this library for a number of years).

jsonnet is my go-to language for anything related to configuration, after having tried json, yaml, TS, edn, and tasting dhall and toml. It addresses all problems in the article and more.

the composition strikes a good balance between extensiveness and ease of use.

the generated json leads to easy and portable data, and if you write jsonschemas from jsonnet, tools like json-schema-to-typescript [1] make it easy to import a consistent interface, and almost every language has a reasonably up-to-date validation library.

Take a look at https://github.com/bcherny/json-schema-to-typescript, too. I used it successfully at a previous job. IIRC, I had to write some code to convert OpenAPI to JSON Schema but it wasn’t onerous

If you're using OpenAPI, you could use this to generate TypeScript interfaces:

It works really well

I'm messing around with a process to convert JSON schemas to TypeScript interfaces using json-schema-to-typescript. I have a little under 900 JSON files each containing a schema, totaling about 3.5 MB.
