J2tsd is a simple tool to generate TypeScript Definitions based on Java classes.
The typical usecase would be if you want to connect a Java backend with a TypeScript frontend.
Download the jar and execute it, then there will open a window. Configure just as you like and generate.
The project is dependency free.
But you will need Java 15 to execute the compiled program
At the ComboBox you can choose between different emitters, the only difference is how they output your class to TypeScript.
| TYPE | Descriptions |
|---|---|
| AUTODETECT | J2tsd automatically chooses the emitter for every file |
| CLASS | J2tsd will handle every file as a class |
| ENUM | J2tsd will handle every file as an enum |
| INTERFACE | J2tsd will handle every file as an enum |
| INTERFACE_AS_CLASS | J2tsd will autodetect for every file except for interfaces these will be handled as classes |
