Fork of: https://github.com/alihsaas/rbxts-transformer-t

TypeScript transformer which converts TypeScript types to t entities

Installation

To install this package run the following command:

npm i rbxts-transformer-t-new-new yarn add rbxts-transformer-t-new-new pnpm i rbxts-transformer-t-new-new

Usage

To use this transformer you have to add rbxts-transformer-t-new-new to your tsconfig.json file in compilerOptions config

"plugins": [
	{
		"transform": "rbxts-transformer-t-new-new",
	}
]

Before

import { $terrify } from "rbxts-transformer-t-new-new";

interface Data {
	Color: Color3;
	Name: string;
	Material: Enum.Material;
}

const tType = $terrify<Data>();

After

local t = TS.import(script, TS.getModule(script, "t").lib.ts).t

local tType = t.interface({
	Color = t.Color3,
	Name = t.string,
	Material = t.enum(Enum.Material),
})

About this transformer

What it can do

1. Transform almost all TypeScript types into t models:

• null, undefined, void, unknown
• string, boolean and number literals
• string, boolean, number, any and thread types
• arrays, tuples, maps, objects and functions
• type unions and intersections
• interfaces types
• roblox types such as Enum Axes
• Enums to enum ex. Enum.Material => t.enum(Enum.Material)

2. Compute expressions passed into it.

For example, this expression

$terrify<Omit<{ foo: 'bar', bar: number } & { data: string }, 'bar'>>()

will be converted into

local t = TS.import(script, TS.getModule(script, "t").lib.ts).t

t.interface({
	foo = t.literal("bar"),
	data = t.string,
})

What it can't do

1. Transform classes.

2. Work with dynamic type parameters, i.e. $terrify<T>() in the following code will error:

import { $terrify } from "rbxts-transformer-t-new-new";

function convertEntity<T>(entity: T) {
	return $terrify<T>();
}
