Convert Typescript to JTD about json-typedef-codegen HOT 2 CLOSED

No need to apologize. :-)

Your request and use-case makes total sense, and has been on my radar. The best option I think you have at the immediate moment is to use the jtd-infer tool: https://github.com/jsontypedef/json-typedef-infer -- this would require that you can somehow, for each of the TypeScript types you're interested in, get a stream of JSON instances of that type. jtd-infer can determine a schema from that information.

I realize that's not what you're asking for. The sort of tool you're asking for is, in a way, the inverse of what the tool in this repo is doing. I suspect it would be better situated in a new, different tool. We can maybe take inspiration from other tools which generate code from TypeScript source code; I fully admit that I've never used typescript as a library before, so I'm not actually sure how I'd start.

Would you be willing to help develop such a tool?

Just for triage purposes, I'm going to close this ticket out. Please feel free to re-open at any time. :-)
