Stack Exchange API Types - a type declaration package for API types

Screenshot / Code Snippet

animated example

About

Stack Exchange API types is a type declaration package adding type definitions for objects exposed by Stack Exchange API for both client- and server-side consumption.

The package is automatically generated, so all currently available types should be present in the definitions - do let us know if we missed anything!

License

The package is licensed under the GPL-3.0-or-later license.

Download

The package is published as both an NPM package and a GitHub package. Can be installed via a package manager like NPM as usual:

npm install --save-dev @userscripters/stackexchange-api-types

If you opt to install it from the GitHub registry, please note that it only supports scoped packages, you will need a simple .npmrc file at your project root:

@userscripters:registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com

You will also need to be logged in to GitHub. An easy way to do so is to have a global .npmrc with your PAT (personal access token) set as an access token:

//npm.pkg.github.com/:_authToken=<your token here>

Platform

The type declarations are intended to be used with TypeScript/JavaScript projects targeting either browsers or server-side environments like Node.js.

Changelog

Version Changes
0.3.0 Deduplicated generated interfaces & exported types globally as StackExchangeAPI namespace
