Generate Zod interfaces from MySQL database
Install mysql-zod
with npm
npm install mysql-zod --save-dev
Create a file named mysql-zod.json
and fill it as follows (adjust to your needs):
{
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": 3306,
"user": "root",
"password": "secret",
"database": "myapp"
}
Create user table:
CREATE TABLE `user` (
`id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`username` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`password` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`profile_picture` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
`role` enum('admin','user') NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);
Then run the command:
npx mysql-zod
The above command will create a user.ts
file with the following contents:
import z from 'zod'
export const user = z.object({
id: z.number().nonnegative(),
name: z.string(),
username: z.string(),
password: z.string(),
profile_picture: z.string().nullable(),
role: z.enum(['admin', 'user']),
})
export type userType = z.infer<typeof user>
You can also use the mysql-zod API programmatically:
import { generate } from 'mysql-zod'
await generate({
host: '127.0.0.1',
port: 3306,
user: 'root',
password: 'secret',
database: 'myapp',
})
{
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": 3306,
"user": "root",
"password": "secret",
"database": "myapp",
"tables": ["user", "log"],
"ignore": ["log","/^temp/"],
"folder": "@zod",
"suffix": "table",
"camelCase": false,
"nullish": false,
"requiredString": false
}
Option | Description |

tables | Filter the tables to include only those specified. |
ignore | Filter the tables to exclude those specified. If a table name begins and ends with "/", it will be processed as a regular expression. |
folder | Specify the output directory. |
suffix | Suffix to the name of a generated file. (eg: user.table.ts ) |
camelCase | Convert all table names and their properties to camelcase. (eg: profile_picture becomes profilePicture ) |
nullish | Set schema as nullish instead of nullable |
requiredString | Add min(1) for string schema |
