Typescript

This section details the available configuration options for the TypeScript SDK. All configuration is managed in the gen.yaml file under the typescript section.

Version and general configuration

typescript:
  version: 1.2.3
  author: "Author Name"
  packageName: "custom-sdk"

Name	Required	Default Value	Description
version	true	0.0.1	The current version of the SDK.
packageName	true	openapi	The name of the npm package. See npm package guidelines.
author	true	Speakeasy	The name of the author of the published package. See npm author field.

Additional JSON package

typescript:
  additionalPackageJSON:
    license: "MIT"

Name	Required	Default Value	Description
additionalPackageJSON	false	{}	Additional key/value pairs for the `package.json` file. Example: license, keywords, etc.

Additional dependencies

typescript:
  additionalDependencies:
    dependencies:
      axios: "^0.21.0"
    devDependencies:
      typescript: "^4.0.0"
    peerDependencies:
      react: "^16.0.0"

Name	Required	Default Value	Description
dependencies	false	{}	Additional production dependencies to include in the `package.json`.
devDependencies	false	{}	Additional development dependencies to include in the `package.json`.
peerDependencies	false	{}	Peer dependencies for compatibility.

Method and parameter management

typescript:
  maxMethodParams: 3
  methodArguments: "require-security-and-request"

Name	Required	Default Value	Description
maxMethodParams	false	0	Maximum number of parameters before an input object is created. `0` means input objects are always used.
flatteningOrder	false	parameters-first or body-first	Determines the ordering of method arguments when flattening parameters and body fields.
methodArguments	false	require-security-and-request	Determines how arguments for SDK methods are generated.

Security configuration

typescript:
  envVarPrefix: SPEAKEASY
  flattenGlobalSecurity: true

Property	Description	Type	Default
flattenGlobalSecurity	Enables inline security credentials during SDK instantiation. Recommended: `true`	boolean	true
envVarPrefix	Sets a prefix for environment variables that allows users to configure global parameters and security.	string	N/A

Module management

typescript:
  moduleFormat: "dual"
  useIndexModules: true

Name	Required	Default Value	Description
useIndexModules	false	true	Controls generation of index modules (`index.ts`). Setting to `false` improves tree-shaking and build performance by avoiding barrel files.
moduleFormat	false	commonjs	Sets the module format to use when compiling the SDK (`commonjs`, `esm`, or `dual`). Using `dual` provides optimal compatibility while enabling modern bundler optimizations.

Performance optimization

For optimal bundle size and tree-shaking performance in modern applications, we recommend using moduleFormat: "dual" together with useIndexModules: false. This combination ensures maximum compatibility while enabling the best possible bundler optimizations.

See the module format configuration guide and barrel files documentation for detailed information about these optimizations.

Import management

typescript:
  imports:
    option: "openapi"
    paths:
      callbacks: models/callbacks
      errors: models/errors
      operations: models/operations
      shared: models/components
      webhooks: models/webhooks

Field	Required	Default Value	Description
option	false	"openapi"	Defines the type of import strategy. Typically set to `"openapi"`, indicating that the structure is based on the OpenAPI document.
paths	false	{}	Customizes where different parts of the SDK (e.g., callbacks, errors, and operations) will be imported from.

Import paths

Component	Default Value	Description
callbacks	models/callbacks	The directory where callback models will be imported from.
errors	models/errors	The directory where error models will be imported from.
operations	models/operations	The directory where operation models (i.e., API endpoints) will be imported from.
shared	models/components	The directory for shared components, such as reusable schemas, and data models imported from the OpenAPI spec.
webhooks	models/webhooks	The directory for webhook models, if the SDK includes support for webhooks.

Error and response handling

typescript:
  clientServerStatusCodesAsErrors: false
  responseFormat: "envelope-http"
  enumFormat: "union"

Property	Description	Type	Default
responseFormat	Defines how responses are structured. Options: `envelope`, `envelope-http`, or `flat`.	string	envelope-http
enumFormat	Determines how enums are generated. Options: `enum` (TypeScript enums) or `union` (union types).	string	union
clientServerStatusCodesAsErrors	Treats `4XX` and `5XX` status codes as errors. Set to `false` to treat them as normal responses.	boolean	true
