GraphQL to TypeScript

Best-effort regex conversion of basic GraphQL type definitions into TypeScript interfaces.

GraphQL to TypeScript

Best-effort regex for simple type Foo { field: Type! } blocks. Unions, interfaces, inputs, and directives are limited or ignored.

GraphQL to TypeScript turns simple type definitions like type User { id: ID! name: String } into TypeScript interfaces using a best-effort regex. It is for quick sketches, not full schema codegen.

What GraphQL to TypeScript does

Maps basic object types to interfaces.

  • type Name { fields }
  • Non-null ! to required fields
  • Scalar mapping ID/String/Int/Float/Boolean
  • Copy output

Who GraphQL to TypeScript is for

  • Frontend developers prototyping types
  • Students learning GraphQL SDL
  • Engineers drafting stubs
  • Anyone needing a quick interface sketch

How to use GraphQL to TypeScript

1. Paste simple GraphQL type blocks.
2. Click Convert.
3. Review the TypeScript interfaces.
4. Copy into your editor and refine.

Features

  • Local regex conversion
  • Clear limits in the hint
  • Related OpenAPI/JSON tools
  • No server codegen

Examples

  • Convert a User type with id and name.
  • Map [String!] to string[].
  • Sketch types before running graphql-codegen.

Tips and limits

  • Unions, interfaces, enums, and inputs are incomplete.
  • Custom scalars become string by default.
  • Prefer official codegen for production schemas.
  • Nested types need separate type blocks.

FAQ

Does it support the full GraphQL spec?

No. It targets simple type { } blocks with regex.

Is my schema uploaded?

No. Conversion is local.

Extra notes

GraphQL to TypeScript runs entirely in your browser so drafts and secrets never need to leave your device for processing. Keep a backup of long outputs in your own notes if you rely on them for production servers or live events. Accessibility friendly labels come from the module UI strings, and the layout follows the shared BeeForge .bf-tool shell for consistent spacing and buttons.

Support for developers, marketers, and everyday users is the same client-side model: open the page, configure options, copy or download, then paste into your workflow. BeeForge related links on the tool page point to companion utilities so you can move between related generators without hunting the hub.

When you share results with a teammate, paste into a ticket or gist rather than screenshotting alone, so the text remains searchable. If a browser privacy mode blocks clipboard helpers, select the output manually. Local processing also means the tool works offline after the page and scripts have loaded once.

Validate generated configs or hashes in a staging environment before production use. Prefer regenerating secrets after any accidental paste into chat. For teaching sessions, walk through one sample input end to end so students see how live updates and copy buttons behave together.
