mysql8-schema-ts

mysql8-schema-ts is a simple npm module you can use to convert a mysql schema into typescript interfaces

Further interation to the original mysql-schema.ts by Netto Farad. Adds support for Mysql 8 and fixes a few quirks in the original lib.

Usage

# to infer an entire schema
$ npx mysql8-schema-ts mysql://root@localhost:3306/database

# to infer a specific table
$ npx mysql8-schema-ts mysql://root@localhost:3306/database --table table_name

# add optional prefix to table names
$ npx mysql8-schema-ts mysql://root@localhost:3306/database --prefix SQL

tip: You can pipe the output of mysql8-schema-ts into a file with npx mysql8-schema-ts <args> > schema.ts

Demo

For the following SQL schema: (from the musicbrainz database)

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS artist ( -- replicate (verbose)
    id                  SERIAL,
    gid                 CHAR(36) NOT NULL,
    name                VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    sort_name           VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    begin_date_year     SMALLINT,
    begin_date_month    SMALLINT,
    begin_date_day      SMALLINT,
    end_date_year       SMALLINT,
    end_date_month      SMALLINT,
    end_date_day        SMALLINT,
    type                INTEGER, -- references artist_type.id
    area                INTEGER, -- references area.id
    gender              INTEGER, -- references gender.id
    comment             VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    edits_pending       INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 CHECK (edits_pending >= 0),
    last_updated        TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
    ended               CHAR(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT FALSE
);

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS track ( -- replicate (verbose)
    id                  SERIAL,
    gid                 CHAR(36) NOT NULL,
    recording           INTEGER NOT NULL, -- references recording.id
    medium              INTEGER NOT NULL, -- references medium.id
    position            INTEGER NOT NULL,
    number              TEXT NOT NULL,
    name                VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    artist_credit       INTEGER NOT NULL, -- references artist_credit.id
    length              INTEGER CHECK (length IS NULL OR length > 0),
    edits_pending       INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 CHECK (edits_pending >= 0),
    last_updated        TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
    is_data_track       CHAR(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT FALSE
) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;

run:

$ npx mysql8-schema-ts mysql://root@localhost:3306/musicbrainz

export interface artist {
  id: number
  gid: string
  name: string
  sort_name: string
  begin_date_year: number | null
  begin_date_month: number | null
  begin_date_day: number | null
  end_date_year: number | null
  end_date_month: number | null
  end_date_day: number | null
  type: number | null
  area: number | null
  gender: number | null
  comment: string
  edits_pending: number
  last_updated: Date
  ended: string
}
export interface track {
  id: number
  gid: string
  recording: number
  medium: number
  position: number
  number_: string
  name: string
  artist_credit: number
  length: number | null
  edits_pending: number
  last_updated: Date
  is_data_track: string
}

Using mysql8-schema-ts programatically

import { inferSchema, inferTable } from 'mysql8-schema-ts'

await inferSchema(connectionString)
await inferTable(connectionString, tableName)

Design

mysql8-schema-ts is inpired by the awesome schemats library. But takes a simpler, more blunt, and configuration free approach:

• Simpler defaults
• MySQL support only
• Inline enums
• No support for namespaces
