aptos-tsgen

aptos-tsgen uses json output from jsongen to generate TypeScript interface for Move modules.

How-to

Steps: 1. clone and build the jsongen branch of move-jsongen 2. Find the move binary built under target/debug/ 3. From inside your move project's directory (where Move.toml exists), run this command:

path/to/target/debug/move package build --json
This step generates json interface descriptors for your Move modules

From one of your typescript projects:
- yarn add @manahippo/aptos-tsgen
- yarn aptos-tsgen src/generated path/to/generated/json/dir
- Note that path to generated json dir is usually, in the move project, build/MODULE_NAME/json

I'll add a full demo with the required steps in a bit...

Example

Move source code:

address 0x1234 {
  module TestModule {
      use Std::Signer;
      use Std::ASCII;
      use Std::FixedPoint32;

      const SOME_ERROR:u64 = 1;
      
      struct AccountInfo has key {
          name: String,
          age: u8,
          balance: u64,
          some_index: FixedPoint32,
      }
      public(script) fun register(account: &signer, name: vector<u8>, age: u8, balance: u64, some_index: u64) {
          let account_info = AccountInfo{
              name: name,
              age: age,
              balance: balance,
              some_index: FixedPoint32 {value: some_index},
          };

          let signer_addr = Signer::address_of(account);

          assert!(!exists<AccountInfo>(signer_addr), SOME_ERROR);
          move_to(account, account_info);
      }
  }
}

Output from jsongen:

      ]
    }
  ]
}
