About XML to TS
Convert XML to TypeScript interfaces automatically. Parses nested elements, attributes, and repeated nodes into typed interfaces — useful for SOAP responses, RSS feeds, and XML-based config formats.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is XML to TypeScript interface generation?
XML to TypeScript interface generation analyses an XML document and produces TypeScript interface definitions matching its element and attribute structure. Each element becomes a typed interface and each attribute becomes a property, making XML data immediately usable in TypeScript code.
Should I use JAXB, DOM, or StAX for parsing XML in Java if I have TypeScript types?
This tool generates TypeScript interfaces from XML structure. For Java XML parsing: JAXB is best for schema-backed binding to annotated POJOs; DOM is best for random access to small documents; StAX is best for large streaming documents where you process one element at a time without loading the whole tree. The TypeScript output is framework-agnostic.
How are XML attributes represented in the generated TypeScript interface?
Attributes become properties prefixed with @ by convention (e.g. @id: string). The element's text content, if any, becomes a _text?: string property. You can rename these after generation to match your preferred naming convention — they are type declarations, not runtime bindings.
Can I use the generated TypeScript interface with fast-xml-parser?
Yes. fast-xml-parser returns a plain JavaScript object whose shape matches the generated interface. Configure it with attributeNamePrefix: "@" to align attribute keys. Then: const data: YourType = parse(xmlString) as YourType. Add explicit runtime validation with Zod if the XML source is untrusted.
How does the generator handle XML namespaces in TypeScript types?
Namespace prefixes are stripped from tag names in the generated interfaces — <xs:element> becomes a property named element. Namespace URIs are not represented. If you work with multiple namespaces that use the same local name for different purposes, rename the conflicting properties after generation to avoid collisions.
