GQL2TS

Generate TypeScript and Flow type interfaces from GraphQL types and query definitions.

# for CLI
npm install -g gql2ts

# for programmatic use
npm install @gql2ts/from-query
npm install @gql2ts/from-schema

Structure

This project is a lerna mono repo, consisting of multiple packages.

Goals and usage

This project can either:

• Take a type schema to generate TS interfaces
• Take a type schema & query and generate TS interfaces

Generate from type schema

Pass a GraphQL type schema to generate a TypeScript interface:

Input:

type Query {
  thing: String!
  anotherThing: Boolean!
}

Output:

interface IQuery {
  thing: string;
  anotherThing: boolean;
}

Generate from type schema and query

Pass a type and query to generate a TypeScript interface:

Input:

type Query {
  thing: String!
  anotherThing: Boolean!
}

query GetThing {
  thing
}

Output

interface GetThing {
  thing: string;
}

Language output

Note that flow and typescript generator outputs are supported via separate packages:

• language-flow - defaults for running gql2ts with Flow as your target
• language-typescript - defaults for running gql2ts with Typescript as your target

Fine control

If you look into the index.ts of either from-query or from-schema packages:

import {
  DEFAULT_TYPE_MAP,
  DEFAULT_OPTIONS,
} from '@gql2ts/language-typescript';

This can be replaced with mathing flow configuration objects:

import {
  DEFAULT_TYPE_MAP,
  DEFAULT_OPTIONS,
} from '@gql2ts/language-flow';

Note: Flow output support has yet to be packaged and made available for the CLI.
