Codemod to convert React PropTypes to TypeScript types.

Key Features

  • Supports function and class components
  • Supports static propTypes declarations on class components
  • Supports forwardRefs
  • Supports files with multiple components
  • Copies JSDoc comments to the generated TypeScript types
  • Option to remove or preserve PropTypes after converting to TS

Usage

Thanks to my friends at Codemod, you can easily run Ratchet on your project using the Codemod VS Code extension:

Run in Codemod.com

To learn more about using the Codemod platform, read the docs here. If you encounter any issues, please reach out to my good friends at Codemod.

Or run the following command with a file glob that matches the files you want to convert.

npx jscodeshift -t https://mskelton.dev/ratchet.ts GLOB

# Example
npx jscodeshift -t https://mskelton.dev/ratchet.ts src/**/*.{js,jsx}

Try it Online!

Additionally, you can use Ratchet online at mskelton.dev/ratchet! Simply paste your input on the left and instantly see the output on the right!

Screenshot

Example: Function Component

Input:

// Input
import PropTypes from "prop-types"
import React from "react"

export function MyComponent(props) {
  return <span />
}

MyComponent.propTypes = {
  bar: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
  foo: PropTypes.number,
}

Output:

import React from "react"

interface MyComponentProps {
  bar: string
  foo?: number
}

export function MyComponent(props: MyComponentProps) {
  return <span />
}

Options

--preserve-prop-types

Preserves prop types after converting to TS. There are two available modes: all and unconverted.

--preserve-prop-types=all

CLI alias: --preserve-prop-types

This option will preserve all PropTypes. This is useful for component libraries where you support both TypeScript declarations and PropTypes.

Input:

import PropTypes from "prop-types"
import React from "react"

export function MyComponent(props) {
  return <span />
}

MyComponent.propTypes = {
  foo: PropTypes.number,
}

Output:

import PropTypes from "prop-types"
import React from "react"

interface MyComponentProps {
  foo?: number
}

export function MyComponent(props: MyComponentProps) {
  return <span />
}

MyComponent.propTypes = {
  foo: PropTypes.number,
}

--preserve-prop-types=unconverted

This option will preserve prop types which could not be fully converted. For example, spread expressions are not converted, and custom validators are converted to unknown. This option is useful to preserve these expressions so you can manually review and convert to their TypeScript equivalent.

Input:

import PropTypes from "prop-types"
import React from "react"

export function MyComponent(props) {
  return <span />
}

MyComponent.propTypes = {
  ...OtherComponent.propTypes,
  foo: PropTypes.number,
  bar(props, propName, componentName) {
    return new Error("Invalid prop")
  },
}

Output:

import PropTypes from "prop-types"
import React from "react"

interface MyComponentProps {
  foo?: number
  bar: unknown
}

export function MyComponent(props: MyComponentProps) {
  return <span />
}

MyComponent.propTypes = {
  ...OtherComponent.propTypes,
  bar(props, propName, componentName) {
    return new Error("Invalid prop")
  },
}

--declaration-style

Allow to choose between interfaces & type aliases. Default is interface.

--declaration-style=type

Create type alias instead of interface.

Input:

// Input
import PropTypes from "prop-types"
import React from "react"

export function MyComponent(props) {
  return <span />
}

MyComponent.propTypes = {
  bar: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
  foo: PropTypes.number,
}

Output:

import React from "react"

type MyComponentProps = {
  bar: string
  foo?: number
}

export function MyComponent(props: MyComponentProps) {
  return <span />
}
