TypeBox is a runtime type builder that creates in-memory JSON Schema objects that can be statically inferred as TypeScript types. The schemas produced by this library are designed to match the static type assertion rules of the TypeScript language. TypeBox allows one to create a unified type that can be statically checked by TypeScript and runtime asserted using standard JSON Schema validation.
This library is designed to enable JSON schema to compose with the same flexibility as TypeScript's type system. It can be used as a simple tool to build up complex schemas or integrated into REST or RPC services to help validate data received over the wire.

The following shows general usage.
import { Static, Type } from '@sinclair/typebox'
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// Let's say you have the following type ...
//
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
type T = {
id: string,
name: string,
timestamp: number
}
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// ... you can express this type in the following way.
//
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
const T = Type.Object({ // const T = {
id: Type.String(), // type: 'object',
name: Type.String(), // properties: {
timestamp: Type.Integer() // id: {
}) // type: 'string'
// },
// name: {
// type: 'string'
// },
// timestamp: {
// type: 'integer'
// }
// },
// required: [
// 'id',
// 'name',
// 'timestamp'
// ]
// }
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// ... then infer back to the original static type this way.
//
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
type T = Static<typeof T> // type T = {
// id: string,
// name: string,
// timestamp: number
// }
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// ... then use the type both as JSON schema and as a TypeScript type.
//
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
import { Value } from '@sinclair/typebox/value'
function receive(value: T) { // ... as a Static Type
if(Value.Check(T, value)) { // ... as a JSON Schema
// ok...
}
}
TypeBox types are JSON schema fragments that compose into complex types. Each fragment is structured such that a JSON schema compliant validator can runtime assert a value the same way TypeScript will statically assert a type. TypeBox provides a set of Standard types which are used create JSON schema compliant schematics as well as an Extended type set used to create schematics for constructs native to JavaScript.
The following table lists the Standard TypeBox types. These types are fully compatible with the JSON Schema Draft 7 specification.

TypeBox provides several extended types that can be used to produce schematics for common JavaScript constructs. These types can not be used with standard JSON schema validators; but are useful to help frame schematics for RPC interfaces that may receive JSON validated data.

You can pass JSON Schema options on the last argument of any type. Option hints specific to each type are provided for convenience.
// String must be an email
const T = Type.String({ // const T = {
format: 'email' // type: 'string',
}) // format: 'email'
// }
// Number must be a multiple of 2
const T = Type.Number({ // const T = {
multipleOf: 2 // type: 'number',
}) // multipleOf: 2
// }
// Array must have at least 5 integer values
const T = Type.Array(Type.Integer(), { // const T = {
minItems: 5 // type: 'array',
}) // minItems: 5,
// items: {
// type: 'integer'
// }
// }
Object properties can be modified with readonly
or optional
. The following table shows how these modifiers map between TypeScript and JSON Schema.

Generic types are created with generic functions. All TypeBox types extend the sub type TSchema
so it is common to constrain function arguments to this type. The following creates a generic Vector<T>
type.
import { Type, Static, TSchema } from '@sinclair/typebox'
const Vector = <T extends TSchema>(t: T) => Type.Object({ x: t, y: t, z: t })
const NumberVector = Vector(Type.Number()) // const NumberVector = {
// type: 'object',
// required: ['x', 'y', 'z'],
// properties: {
// x: { type: 'number' },
// y: { type: 'number' },
// z: { type: 'number' }
// }
// }
type NumberVector = Static<typeof NumberVector> // type NumberVector = {
// x: number,
// y: number,
// z: number
// }
Generic types can be used to create aliases for more complex types. The following creates a Nullable<T>
type.
const Nullable = <T extends TSchema>(schema: T) => Type.Union([schema, Type.Null()])
const T = Nullable(Type.String()) // const T = {
// anyOf: [
// { type: 'string' },
// { type: 'null' }
// ]
// }
type T = Static<typeof T> // type T = string | null
Reference types are supported with Ref
.
const T = Type.String({ $id: 'T' }) // const T = {
// $id: 'T',
// type: 'string'
// }
const R = Type.Ref<typeof T>('T') // const R = {
// $ref: 'T'
// }
type R = Static<typeof R> // type R = string
Recursive types are supported with Recursive
. Recursive type inference is also supported.
const Node = Type.Recursive(This => Type.Object({ // const Node = {
id: Type.String(), // $id: 'Node',
nodes: Type.Array(This) // type: 'object',
}), { $id: 'Node' }) // properties: {
// id: {
// type: 'string'
// },
// nodes: {
// type: 'array',
// items: {
// $ref: 'Node'
// }
// }
// },
// required: [
// 'id',
// 'nodes'
// ]
// }
type Node = Static<typeof Node> // type Node = {
// id: string
// nodes: Node[]
// }
function test(node: Node) {
const id = node.nodes[0].nodes[0].id // id is string
}
TypeBox supports conditional types with Extends
. This type performs a structural assignment check against the first two parameters and returns either the true
or false
type as given from the second two parameters. The conditional types Exclude
and Extract
are also supported.
// TypeScript
type T0 = string extends number ? true : false // type T0 = false
type T1 = Extract<(1 | 2 | 3), 1> // type T1 = 1
type T2 = Exclude<(1 | 2 | 3), 1> // type T2 = 2 | 3
// TypeBox
const T0 = Type.Extends( // const T0: TLiteral<false> = {
Type.String(), // type: 'boolean',
Type.Number(), // const: false
Type.Literal(true), // }
Type.Literal(false)
)
const T1 = Type.Extract( // const T1: TLiteral<1> = {
Type.Union([ // type: 'number',
Type.Literal(1), // const: 1
Type.Literal(2), // }
Type.Literal(3)
]),
Type.Literal(1)
)
const T2 = Type.Exclude( // const T2: TUnion<[
Type.Union([ // TLiteral<2>,
Type.Literal(1), // TLiteral<3>
Type.Literal(2), // ]> = {
Type.Literal(3) // anyOf: [{
]), // type: 'number',
Type.Literal(1) // const: 2
) // }, {
// type: 'number',
// const: 3
// }]
// }
TypeBox supports template literal types with TemplateLiteral
. This type provides an embedded DSL syntax that is similar to the TypeScript template literal syntax. These type can also be composed by passing a tuple of exterior union and literal types. The following example shows the DSL syntax.
// TypeScript
type T = `option${'A'|'B'|'C'}` // type T = 'optionA' | 'optionB' | 'optionC'
type R = Record<T, string> // type R = {
// optionA: string
// optionB: string
// optionC: string
// }
// TypeBox
const T = Type.TemplateLiteral('option${A|B|C}') // const T = {
// pattern: '^option(A|B|C)$',
// type: 'string'
// }
const R = Type.Record(T, Type.String()) // const R = {
// type: 'object',
// required: ['optionA', 'optionB'],
// properties: {
// optionA: {
// type: 'string'
// },
// optionB: {
// type: 'string'
// }
// optionC: {

TypeBox supports a set of intrinsic string mapping functions which can be used on string literals. These functions match the TypeScript string intrinsic types Uppercase
, Lowercase
, Capitalize
and Uncapitalize
. These functions are supported for literal strings, template literals and union types. The following shows the literal string usage.
// TypeScript
type A = Uncapitalize<'HELLO'> // type A = 'hELLO'
type B = Capitalize<'hello'> // type B = 'Hello'
type C = Uppercase<'hello'> // type C = 'HELLO'
type D = Lowercase<'HELLO'> // type D = 'hello'
// TypeBox
const A = Type.Uncapitalize(Type.Literal('HELLO')) // const A: TLiteral<'hELLO'>
const B = Type.Capitalize(Type.Literal('hello')) // const B: TLiteral<'Hello'>
const C = Type.Uppercase(Type.Literal('hello')) // const C: TLiteral<'HELLO'>
const D = Type.Lowercase(Type.Literal('HELLO')) // const D: TLiteral<'hello'>
TypeBox supports indexed access types using Index
. This type provides a consistent way of accessing interior property and array element types without having to extract them from the underlying schema representation. Indexed access types are supported for object, array, tuple, union and intersect types.
const T = Type.Object({ // const T = {
x: Type.Number(), // type: 'object',
y: Type.String(), // required: ['x', 'y', 'z'],
z: Type.Boolean() // properties: {
}) // x: { type: 'number' },
// y: { type: 'string' },
// z: { type: 'string' }
// }
// }
const A = Type.Index(T, ['x']) // const A = { type: 'number' }
const B = Type.Index(T, ['x', 'y']) // const B = {
// anyOf: [
// { type: 'number' },
// { type: 'string' }
// ]
// }
const C = Type.Index(T, Type.KeyOf(T)) // const C = {
// anyOf: [
// { type: 'number' },
// { type: 'string' },
// { type: 'boolean' }
// ]
// }
TypeBox has support for type negation with Not
. This type will always infer as unknown
.
const T = Type.Not(Type.String()) // const T = {
// not: { type: 'string' }
// }
type T = Static<typeof T> // type T = unknown
//
// where T could be any type other than string
Type negation can be useful for certain forms of type narrowing. For example, consider a type that represents a number
but not the numbers 1, 2, 3
. The example below shows an imaginary TypeScript syntax to express such a type followed by the TypeBox representation.
// TypeScript
type T = number & not (1 | 2 | 3) // not actual syntax
// TypeBox
const T = Type.Intersect([ // const T = {
Type.Number(), // allOf: [
Type.Not(Type.Union([ // { type: "number" },
Type.Literal(1), // {
Type.Literal(2), // not: {
Type.Literal(3) // anyOf: [
])) // { const: 1, type: "number" },
]) // { const: 2, type: "number" },
// { const: 3, type: "number" }
// ]
// }
// }
// ]
// }
type T = Static<typeof T> // type T = number
This type can be used with constraints to create schematics that would otherwise be difficult to express.
const Even = Type.Number({ multipleOf: 2 })
const Odd = Type.Intersect([Type.Number(), Type.Not(Even)])
Rest parameters are supported with Rest
. This function is used to extract interior type elements from tuples which enables them to compose with the JavaScript spread operator ...
. This type can be used for tuple concatenation as well function parameter assignment.
// TypeScript
type T = [number, number] // type T = [number, number]
type C = [...T, number] // type C = [number, number, number]
type F = (...param: C) => void // type F = (
// param0: number,
// param1: number,
// param2: number
// ) => void
// TypeBox
const T = Type.Tuple([ // const T: TTuple<[
Type.Number(), // TNumber,
Type.Number() // TNumber
]) // ]>
const C = Type.Tuple([ // const C: TTuple<[
...Type.Rest(T), // TNumber,
Type.Number() // TNumber,
]) // TNumber
// ]>
const F = Type.Function(Type.Rest(C), Type.Void()) // const F: TFunction<[
// TNumber,
// TNumber,
// TNumber
// ], TVoid>
TypeBox supports the creation of user defined schematics with user defined inference rules using the Unsafe type.
const T = Type.Unsafe<string>({ type: 'number' }) // const T = {
// type: 'number'
// }
type T = Static<typeof T> // type T = string
This type can be useful to create various extended schematics, such as those used by OpenAPI.
import { Type, Static, TSchema } from '@sinclair/typebox'
// Nullable<T>
function Nullable<T extends TSchema>(schema: T) {
return Type.Unsafe<Static<T> | null>({ ...schema, nullable: true })
}
const T = Nullable(Type.String()) // const T = {
// type: 'string',
// nullable: true
// }
type T = Static<typeof T> // type T = string | null
// StringEnum<string[]>
function StringEnum<T extends string[]>(values: [...T]) {
return Type.Unsafe<T[number]>({ type: 'string', enum: values })
}
const T = StringEnum(['A', 'B', 'C']) // const T = {
// enum: ['A', 'B', 'C']
// }
type T = Static<typeof T> // type T = 'A' | 'B' | 'C'
TypeBox provides a TypeGuard module to assert JavaScript values are valid TypeBox types.
import { Type, Kind, TypeGuard } from '@sinclair/typebox'
const T = { [Kind]: 'String', type: 'string' }
if(TypeGuard.TString(T)) {
// T is TString
}
TypeBox types contain various symbol properties that are used for reflection, composition and compilation. These properties are not strictly valid JSON schema; so in some cases it may be desirable to omit them. TypeBox provides a Strict
function that will omit these properties if necessary.
const T = Type.Object({ // const T = {
name: Type.Optional(Type.String()) // [Kind]: 'Object',
}) // type: 'object',
// properties: {
// name: {
// type: 'string',
// [Kind]: 'String',
// [Optional]: 'Optional'
// }
// }
// }
const U = Type.Strict(T) // const U = {
// type: 'object',
// properties: {
// name: {
// type: 'string'
// }
// }
// }
TypeBox provides an optional utility module that can be used to perform common operations on JavaScript values. This module includes functionality to create, check and cast values from types as well as check equality, clone, diff and patch JavaScript values. This module is provided via optional import.
import { Value } from '@sinclair/typebox/value'
Use the Create function to create a value from a type. TypeBox will use default values if specified.
const T = Type.Object({ x: Type.Number(), y: Type.Number({ default: 42 }) })
const A = Value.Create(T) // const A = { x: 0, y: 42 }
Use the Clone function to deeply clone a value
const A = Value.Clone({ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }) // const A = { x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }
Use the Check function to type check a value
const T = Type.Object({ x: Type.Number() })
const R = Value.Check(T, { x: 1 }) // const R = true
Use the Convert function to convert a value into its target type if a reasonable conversion is possible. This function may return an invalid value and should be checked before use. It's return type is unknown
.
const T = Type.Object({ x: Type.Number() })
const R1 = Value.Convert(T, { x: '3.14' }) // const R1 = { x: 3.14 }
const R2 = Value.Convert(T, { x: 'not a number' }) // const R2 = { x: 'not a number' }
Use the Cast function to cast a value into a type. The cast function will retain as much information as possible from the original value.
const T = Type.Object({ x: Type.Number(), y: Type.Number() }, { additionalProperties: false })
const X = Value.Cast(T, null) // const X = { x: 0, y: 0 }
const Y = Value.Cast(T, { x: 1 }) // const Y = { x: 1, y: 0 }
const Z = Value.Cast(T, { x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }) // const Z = { x: 1, y: 2 }
Use the Equal function to deeply check for value equality.
const R = Value.Equal( // const R = true
{ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 },
{ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }
)
Use the Hash function to create a FNV1A-64 non cryptographic hash of a value.
const A = Value.Hash({ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }) // const A = 2910466848807138541n
const B = Value.Hash({ x: 1, y: 4, z: 3 }) // const B = 1418369778807423581n
Use the Diff function to produce a sequence of edits to transform one value into another.
const E = Value.Diff( // const E = [
{ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }, // { type: 'update', path: '/y', value: 4 },
{ y: 4, z: 5, w: 6 } // { type: 'update', path: '/z', value: 5 },
) // { type: 'insert', path: '/w', value: 6 },
// { type: 'delete', path: '/x' }
// ]
Use the Patch function to apply edits
const A = { x: 1, y: 2 }
const B = { x: 3 }
const E = Value.Diff(A, B) // const E = [
// { type: 'update', path: '/x', value: 3 },
// { type: 'delete', path: '/y' }
// ]
const C = Value.Patch<typeof B>(A, E) // const C = { x: 3 }
Use the Errors function enumerate validation errors.
const T = Type.Object({ x: Type.Number(), y: Type.Number() })
const R = [...Value.Errors(T, { x: '42' })] // const R = [{
// schema: { type: 'number' },
// path: '/x',
// value: '42',
// message: 'Expected number'
// }, {
// schema: { type: 'number' },
// path: '/y',
// value: undefined,
// message: 'Expected number'
// }]
Use the Mutate function to perform a deep mutable value assignment while retaining internal references.
const Y = { z: 1 } // const Y = { z: 1 }
const X = { y: Y } // const X = { y: { z: 1 } }
const A = { x: X } // const A = { x: { y: { z: 1 } } }
Value.Mutate(A, { x: { y: { z: 2 } } }) // const A' = { x: { y: { z: 2 } } }
const R0 = A.x.y.z === 2 // const R0 = true
const R1 = A.x.y === Y // const R1 = true
const R2 = A.x === X // const R2 = true
Use ValuePointer to perform mutable updates on existing values using RFC6901 JSON Pointers.
import { ValuePointer } from '@sinclair/typebox/value'
const A = { x: 0, y: 0, z: 0 }
ValuePointer.Set(A, '/x', 1) // const A' = { x: 1, y: 0, z: 0 }
ValuePointer.Set(A, '/y', 1) // const A' = { x: 1, y: 1, z: 0 }
ValuePointer.Set(A, '/z', 1) // const A' = { x: 1, y: 1, z: 1 }
TypeBox types target JSON Schema draft 7 so are compatible with any validator that supports this specification. TypeBox also provides a built in type checking compiler designed specifically for high performance compilation and value assertion.
The following sections detail using Ajv and TypeBox's compiler infrastructure.
The following shows the recommended setup for Ajv.
$ npm install ajv ajv-formats --save
import { Type } from '@sinclair/typebox'
import addFormats from 'ajv-formats'
import Ajv from 'ajv'
const ajv = addFormats(new Ajv({}), [
'date-time',
'time',
'date',
'email',
'hostname',
'ipv4',
'ipv6',
'uri',
'uri-reference',
'uuid',
'uri-template',
'json-pointer',
'relative-json-pointer',
'regex'
])
const C = ajv.compile(Type.Object({
x: Type.Number(),
y: Type.Number(),
z: Type.Number()
}))
const R = C({ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }) // const R = true
The TypeBox TypeCompiler is a high performance JIT compiler that transforms TypeBox types into optimized JavaScript validation routines. The compiler is tuned for fast compilation as well as fast value assertion. It is designed to serve as a validation backend that can be integrated into larger applications; but can also be used as a general purpose validator.
The TypeCompiler is provided as an optional import.
import { TypeCompiler } from '@sinclair/typebox/compiler'
Use the Compile(...)
function to compile a type. Note that compilation is an expensive operation that should typically be performed once per type during application start up. TypeBox does not cache previously compiled types, so applications are expected to hold references to each compiled type for the lifetime of the application.
const C = TypeCompiler.Compile(Type.Object({ // const C: TypeCheck<TObject<{
x: Type.Number(), // x: TNumber;
y: Type.Number(), // y: TNumber;
z: Type.Number() // z: TNumber;
})) // }>>
const R = C.Check({ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 }) // const R = true
Use the Errors(...)
function to produce diagnostic errors for a value. The Errors(...)
function will return an iterator that if enumerated; will perform an exhaustive check across the entire value and yield any error found. For performance, this function should only be called after failed Check(...)
. Applications may also choose to yield only the first value to avoid exhaustive error generation.
const C = TypeCompiler.Compile(Type.Object({ // const C: TypeCheck<TObject<{
x: Type.Number(), // x: TNumber;
y: Type.Number(), // y: TNumber;
z: Type.Number() // z: TNumber;
})) // }>>
const value = { }
const errors = [...C.Errors(value)] // const errors = [{
// schema: { type: 'number' },
// path: '/x',
// value: undefined,
// message: 'Expected number'
// }, {
// schema: { type: 'number' },
// path: '/y',
// value: undefined,
// message: 'Expected number'
// }, {
// schema: { type: 'number' },
// path: '/z',
// value: undefined,
// message: 'Expected number'
// }]
Compiled routines can be inspected with the .Code()
function.
const C = TypeCompiler.Compile(Type.String()) // const C: TypeCheck<TString>
console.log(C.Code()) // return function check(value) {
// return (
// (typeof value === 'string')
// )
// }
The TypeBox TypeSystem module provides functionality to define types above and beyond the Standard and Extended type sets as well as control various assertion policies. Configurations made to the TypeSystem module are observed by both TypeCompiler
and Value
modules.
The TypeSystem module is provided as an optional import.
import { TypeSystem } from '@sinclair/typebox/system'
Use the Type(...)
function to create custom types. This function lets you specify custom value assertion logic and will return a type factory function which is used to instance the type. This function accepts two generic arguments, the first is the inference type, the second is options used to constrain the type. The following creates a Vector type.
type VectorOptions = { abs: boolean }
type Vector = { x: number, y: number }
const Vector = TypeSystem.Type<Vector, VectorOptions>('Vector', (options, value) => {
return (
typeof value === 'object' && value !== null &&
'x' in value && typeof value.x === 'number' &&
'y' in value && typeof value.y === 'number' &&
(options.abs ? (value.x === Math.abs(value.x) && value.y === Math.abs(value.y)) : true)
)
})
const T = Vector({ abs: true })
type T = Static<typeof T> // type T = Vector
const R1 = Value.Check(T, { x: 1, y: 1 }) // const R1 = true
const R2 = Value.Check(T, { x: 1, y: '1' }) // const R2 = false
const R3 = Value.Check(T, { x: 1, y: -1 }) // const R3 = false
Use the Format(...)
function to create a custom string format. The following creates a format that checks for lowercase strings.
TypeSystem.Format('lowercase', value => value === value.toLowerCase()) // format should be lowercase
const T = Type.String({ format: 'lowercase' })
const A = Value.Check(T, 'Hello') // const A = false
const B = Value.Check(T, 'hello') // const B = true
TypeBox validates using standard JSON Schema assertion policies by default. It is possible to override some of these policies to have TypeBox assert inline with TypeScript static assertion rules. The following policy overrides are available.
// Disallow undefined values for optional properties (default is false)
//
// const A: { x?: number } = { x: undefined } - disallowed when enabled
TypeSystem.ExactOptionalPropertyTypes = true
// Allow arrays to validate as object types (default is false)
//
// const A: {} = [] - allowed in TS
TypeSystem.AllowArrayObjects = true
// Allow numeric values to be NaN or + or - Infinity (default is false)
//
// const A: number = NaN - allowed in TS
TypeSystem.AllowNaN = true
