Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

typespec-decorator-int64-as-string

v1.6.0

Published

A TypeSpec decorator for emitting string type from int64

Readme

typespec-decorator-int64-as-string

A TypeSpec decorator for emitting string type from int64 and uint64.

Installation

npm i -D typespec-decorator-int64-as-string
# or
yarn add -D typespec-decorator-int64-as-string
# or
pnpm i -D typespec-decorator-int64-as-string

Usage

In your .tsp files, apply the @int64AsString or @uint64AsString decorators as follows:

import "typespec-decorator-int64-as-string";

model Foo {
  @int64AsString id: int64;
  @uint64AsString count: uint64;
  @int64AsString ids: int64[];
  @uint64AsString counts: uint64[];
}

model Bar {
  id: int64;
  count: uint64;
  ids: int64[];
  counts: uint64[];
}

When you emit the above .tsp to OpenAPI using @typespec/openapi3, the following schemas will be generated:

schemas:
  Foo:
    type: object
    required:
      - id
      - count
      - ids
      - counts
    properties:
      id:
        type: string # Here's the change by the @int64AsString decorator
        format: int64
      count:
        type: string # Here's the change by the @uint64AsString decorator
        format: uint64
      ids:
        type: array
        items:
          type: string # Array items are also converted to string
          format: int64
      counts:
        type: array
        items:
          type: string # Array items are also converted to string
          format: uint64
  Bar:
    type: object
    required:
      - id
      - count
      - ids
      - counts
    properties:
      id:
        type: integer
        format: int64
      count:
        type: integer
        format: uint64
      ids:
        type: array
        items:
          type: integer
          format: int64
      counts:
        type: array
        items:
          type: integer
          format: uint64

You can also perform a global import using tspconfig.yaml:

imports:
  - typespec-decorator-int64-as-string

Replacing this package with official TypeSpec decorators

This package can be replaced by official TypeSpec decorators.

For int64/uint64 properties

Use the @encode decorator:

model MyModel {
  @encode("int64", string) id: int64;
}

For int64[]/uint64[] properties

Use @extension decorator from @typespec/openapi.

import "@typespec/openapi";

using OpenAPI;

model MyModel {
  @extension("items", #{ type: "string", format: "int64" }) ids: int64[];
}
