    Typescript to JSON Schema
  • Parse, Don't Validate (2019)

    For anyone using both TypeScript and JSON schemas, but wanting to use TypeScript as the source of truth, I highly recommend the following library: [ts-json-schema-generator](https://github.com/YousefED/typescript-json-schema).

    It does exactly what it says in the box: turns your TypeScript `types` / `interface` into machine-readable JSON schemas.

    The library has a few open issues (does not deal well with some edge cases of composing Omit<> on sum types, and does not support dynamic (const) keys), but compared to manually writing JSON schemas, it's been amazing!

    > For more complex cases I find myself wishing I could just turn Typescript into some kind of schema validation for JSON.

    Not sure if this is what you're looking for, and whether it's powerful and expressive enough for your use case, but you can use typescript-json-schema¹ for this, and validate with eg ajv.

    For what it's worth, thanks to TypeScript transformers (a feature baked into the compiler), one can create a transformer library that verifies an object is valid for any TypeScript type and conveys that information to the typechecker. And indeed, it's already been made. It allows to parse unknown into a given T. This is nice, because one can generate a JSON schema out of a TS type, for other languages/codebases to integrate safely.

    The formal grammar counts as canonical and several implementations are derived from it: https://github.com/yaml/yaml-reference-parser
