@jdg-keyforge/protocol

TypeScript types for the KeyForge WebSocket protocol, generated from the canonical JSON Schema contracts in this repository.

This package contains only type declarations — there is no runtime code. It mirrors the Go submodule published at github.com/JoniDG/keyforge-protocol/go/protocol.

Install

npm install @jdg-keyforge/protocol

While the package is unpublished, consumers in the KeyForge workspace can install it directly from the source tree:

npm install file:../keyforge-protocol/ts

Usage

import type {
  Envelope,
  Request,
  Response,
  Event,
  Device,
  InputEvent,
  MethodHello,
  MethodListDevices,
  EventInput,
} from '@jdg-keyforge/protocol';

The root index re-exports shared types from common and envelope plus the top-level Method* / Event* types for each method and event. Inner payload shapes (e.g. MethodListDevices['result']) are reachable through the parent type.

For schema definitions and the wire-protocol overview, see the repository root README.

Versioning

This package is versioned independently from the schema's /v1/ path and from the Go submodule:

Artifact	Source of truth	Tag
Schema major	$id path (.../v1/...)	—
Go submodule	go/protocol/	go/vX.Y.Z
TS package	ts/	ts/vX.Y.Z

A breaking schema change bumps /v1/ to /v2/ and the major version of both packages. Non-breaking schema additions bump only the minor/patch of each package.

Local regeneration

The contents of src/ are auto-generated from the JSON Schemas. To regenerate after editing a schema, run from the repository root:

make generate-ts

Then build the package:

cd ts && npm install && npm run build

CI fails the build if git diff --exit-code ts/src/ is dirty — i.e. someone changed a schema without committing the regenerated types.
