What is @sanity/types?

@sanity/types is a TypeScript library that provides type definitions for Sanity's content platform. It helps developers to define and work with the types of content schemas, documents, and other entities within the Sanity ecosystem.

What are @sanity/types's main functionalities?

Schema Type Definitions

This feature allows you to define the structure of your content types in a strongly-typed manner. The code sample demonstrates how to define a simple schema with a document type 'post' that has a 'title' field of type 'string'.

const schema: Schema = { name: 'mySchema', types: [{ name: 'post', type: 'document', fields: [{ name: 'title', type: 'string' }] }] };

Document Type Definitions

This feature provides type definitions for documents stored in Sanity. The code sample shows how to define a document of type 'post' with an ID and a title.

const post: SanityDocument = { _id: 'post1', _type: 'post', title: 'Hello World' };

Field Type Definitions

This feature allows you to define individual fields within your content types. The code sample demonstrates how to define a 'title' field of type 'string'.

const titleField: StringField = { name: 'title', type: 'string' };
