API

jsonDts(input, options?)

input

Anything that can be represented as JSON.

Has to be parsed JSON.

options.name?

Type: string

By default the the root item is called T0. This can be used to override that.

options.filter?

Type: string[] | (path: string[]) => boolean

This option can be used to filter entries from the output. Filtered entries will have type any.

For each key (including indices of arrays) found in input:

• If the filter is an array, it filters all keys found in that array.
• Otherwise it passes the path the function and filters that key if the function returns false.

jsonDts(
  {
    a: 1,
    b: 'b',
  },
  {
    filter: ['a'],
  },
);
// returns
type T0 = {
  a: any;
  b: string;
};

jsonDts(
  {
    a: {
      b: 'b',
      c: 1,
    },
  },
  {
    filter(path: string[]) {
      // Filter *.b
      return path?.[1] !== 'b';
    },
  },
);
// returns
type A = {
  b: any;
  c: number;
};

type T0 = {
  a: A;
};
