README

Thanks for using snakedove/php-to-typescript-converter!

What is this repository for?

• Adds a command to your symfony project with which you can convert plain old php objects e.g. DTOs to TypeScript Interfaces.

Usage

bin/console ts-create <Source File> <Destination Directory> creates a Typescript Interface.d.ts file for a given source .php file.

bin/console ts-create-all <Source Directory> <Destination Directory> creates Typescript Interface files for all source .php files contained in the given directory and its sub-directories, recursively.

• Nullable types will not convert to type | null because all types are nullable by default in TypeScript.

Prerequisites

• Works for PHP 7.4 POPOs only
• Works from Symfony 4

Configuration

• add one or both of the following configuration to your services.yaml:

Snakedove\PHPToTypescriptConverter\Command\PhpToTypescriptCommand:
    tags: ['console.command']

• Now, the command ts-create should show up when using bin/console list.

Snakedove\PHPToTypescriptConverter\Command\PhpToTypescriptAllCommand:
    tags: ['console.command']

• Now, the command ts-create-all should show up when using bin/console list.

Optional:

• pass argument $nameSuffix to the command, e.g. 'Interface'. This will add 'Interface' to all file and interface names.
• pass argument $convertCollection to the command. Set to false, this will include the collection as an own InterfaceType. Per default, collections will be converted to CollectionType[], and Collection classes will not be converted.

Example configuration

Snakedove\PHPToTypescriptConverter\Command\PhpToTypescriptCommand:
    tags: ['console.command']
    arguments:
        $nameSuffix: Interface
        $convertCollections: true

Caveats

• Does currently not support fluent interfaces
