Avro to TypeScript Converter

This proof-of-concept project provides a command-line tool to convert Avro schemas to TypeScript types.

Installation

To build the project, you need to have Rust installed. Clone the repository and run:

cargo install --path .

Usage

To use the tool, run the following command:

att --schema /path/to/avro/schema.json > /path/to/output/file.ts

If you don't redirect stdout to a file then the generated code will be printed to the screen.

Example

att --schema ./example.json > ~/projects/my-project/src/types/example.ts

This will parse the example.json schema, convert it to TypeScript, and write the generated typescript code to example.ts.
