make-a-type

This extension is available on the VSCode Marketplace.

I made this because the other available extensions which convert JS to TS either required you to use a JSON object or they created a separate TS file. This extension does not require you to use JSON and captures the TS type in your clipboard so that you can paste it anywhere you want.

Features

• Highlight a JS Object, and get a TypeScript interface in your clipboard

Requirements

• VS Code 1.44 or higher

Usage

1. Highlight your JS object
2. Open command pallette (Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-P)
3. Search for "Make JS Object into TS Type: clipboard"
4. Select option
5. TS type is now in your clipboard, now paste it wherever you want to
