What is ts-json-schema-generator?

The ts-json-schema-generator package is a tool that generates JSON schemas from TypeScript types. It is useful for ensuring that your TypeScript types and JSON schemas stay in sync, which can be particularly helpful for validating JSON data against TypeScript interfaces or types.

What are ts-json-schema-generator's main functionalities?

Generate JSON Schema from TypeScript Interface

This feature allows you to generate a JSON schema from a TypeScript interface. You need to specify the path to your TypeScript file and the type you want to generate the schema for.

const { createGenerator } = require('ts-json-schema-generator');
const config = {
  path: 'path/to/your/file.ts',
  tsconfig: 'path/to/your/tsconfig.json',
  type: '*', // Or specify a particular type
};
const schema = createGenerator(config).createSchema(config.type);
console.log(JSON.stringify(schema, null, 2));

Generate JSON Schema for Specific Type

This feature allows you to generate a JSON schema for a specific TypeScript type. You need to specify the path to your TypeScript file and the type you want to generate the schema for.

const { createGenerator } = require('ts-json-schema-generator');
const config = {
  path: 'path/to/your/file.ts',
  tsconfig: 'path/to/your/tsconfig.json',
  type: 'MyType', // Specify the type you want to generate the schema for
};
const schema = createGenerator(config).createSchema(config.type);
console.log(JSON.stringify(schema, null, 2));

Generate JSON Schema with Custom Settings

This feature allows you to generate a JSON schema with custom settings. You can specify various options such as exposing all types, referencing the top-level schema, and using extended JSDoc annotations.

const { createGenerator } = require('ts-json-schema-generator');
const config = {
  path: 'path/to/your/file.ts',
  tsconfig: 'path/to/your/tsconfig.json',
  type: 'MyType',
  expose: 'all', // Expose all types
  topRef: true, // Reference the top-level schema
  jsDoc: 'extended', // Use extended JSDoc annotations
};
const schema = createGenerator(config).createSchema(config.type);
console.log(JSON.stringify(schema, null, 2));
