Typescript: json2ts is a nice helper

Writing interfaces can be annoying.

You can save a lot of time when you have to define Typescript interfaces for data that you are loading from a webservice. 
Instead of typing all the interfaces yourself you can just use a nice service in the web: json2ts

Just paste in your json code and it generates the corresponding interfaces in Typescripts.

Example JSON:

[
  { 
    "city": "Berlin",
    "country": "Germany",
    "currencies": [{"code":"EUR"}]
  },
  { 
    "city": "Paris",
    "country": "France",
    "currencies": [{"code":"EUR"}]
  }

]

Generated code:


declare module namespace {

    export interface Currency {
        code: string;
    }

    export interface RootObject {
        city: string;
        country: string;
        currencies: Currency[];
    }

}


Now you just have to rename the 'RootObject' to a name you like.

Check it out here: http://json2ts.com/

For the case you need c# code try this http://json2csharp.com/. Both services are based on the JSON C# Class Generator.

Thanks to Timmy Kokke and Jonathan Keith for giving that to the community.
