Convert literal objects in JSON, YAML, or TOML, to core-types
npm install core-types-literalsA core-types-compliant reader for literal JSON, YAML, and TOML files. This is useful if you want to generate a TypeScript interface for your literal JSON file, like a locale object using Typeconv.
Install this package and typeconv:
``bash`
npm add -D core-types-literals typeconv
Then create a JS file like this:
`js
import { makeConverter, getTypeScriptWriter } from "typeconv";
import { convertYamlToCoreTypes } from "core-types-literals";
/* @returns {import("typeconv").Reader} /
export function getYamlLiteralReader(name) {
return {
kind: "yaml",
read: (x) => convertYamlToCoreTypes(x, name),
};
}
const { convert } = makeConverter(
getYamlLiteralReader("MyInterfaceName"),
getTypeScriptWriter({ warn: console.warn }),
);
const inputYaml = { data: "hello: World" };
const { data: outputTs } = await convert(inputYaml);
console.log(outputTs);
// export interface MyInterfaceName {
// hello: "World";
// }
`
Or combine with reading from/writing to files:
`js
// same stuff as above…
import { readFile, writeFile } from "fs/promises";
const inputFileUrl = new URL("../locales/en.yaml", import.meta.url);
const outputTypingsUrl = new URL("./en.i18n.d.ts", import.meta.url);
readFile(i18nFileUrl, "utf8")
.then((yamlContents) => convert({ data: yamlContents }))
.then(({ data: tsInterface }) => writeFile(typingsUrl, tsInterface));
