Please migrate your projects to use @hey-api/openapi-ts

Due to time limitations on my end, this project has been unmaintained for a while now. The @hey-api/openapi-ts project started as a fork with the goal to resolve the most pressing issues. going forward they are planning to maintain the OpenAPI generator and give it the love it deserves. Please support them with their work and make sure to migrate your projects: https://heyapi.dev/openapi-ts/migrating.html#openapi-typescript-codegen

• All open PR's and issues will be archived on the 1st of May 2024
• All versions of this package will be deprecated in NPM

👋 Thanks for all the support, downloads and love! Cheers Ferdi.

OpenAPI Typescript Codegen

Node.js library that generates Typescript clients based on the OpenAPI specification.

Why?

• Frontend ❤️ OpenAPI, but we do not want to use JAVA codegen in our builds
• Quick, lightweight, robust and framework-agnostic 🚀
• Supports generation of TypeScript clients
• Supports generations of Fetch, Node-Fetch, Axios, Angular and XHR http clients
• Supports OpenAPI specification v2.0 and v3.0
• Supports JSON and YAML files for input
• Supports generation through CLI, Node.js and NPX
• Supports tsc and @babel/plugin-transform-typescript
• Supports aborting of requests (cancelable promise pattern)
• Supports external references using json-schema-ref-parser
