Smithy Smithy TypeScript

WARNING: Smithy TypeScript is currently in Developer Preview. All interfaces and supported JavaScript platforms are subject to change.

smithy-typescript includes the reference implementations of the Smithy code generators for TypeScript.

For Client SDK code generation, the typescript-client-codegen plugin provides a framework for generating extensible TypeScript clients that can support multiple JavaScript platforms, including Node.js, Browser, and React-Native. See the section on generating a client to see how to get started, or the typescript-client-codegen documentation.

Note: Node.js support includes versions >= 14, and is subject to change.

For Server SDK code generation, the typescript-server-codegen plugin provides a framework for generating server scaffolding at a higher level of abstraction and with type safety. More documentation can be found at in the typescript-server-codegen documentation, or smithy.io.

Generating a client

The Smithy TypeScript typescript-client-codegen code generator in this repository generates TypeScript clients from Smithy models, and can be built with both the idiomatic Smithy CLI or through Gradle.

The Smithy CLI is a prerequisite for this section when using the smithy init commands. See the installation guide for how to install the Smithy CLI. If installing the Smithy CLI is not preferred, the templates used can be found in the Smithy Examples repository.

For additional configuration, see the typescript-client-codegen documentation and the documentation for smithy-build.json.

Using Smithy TypeScript with the Smithy CLI

Using the Smithy CLI, a new Smithy CLI project can be created using the default smithy init template. In this example, the project will be called smithy-typescript-example-client.

smithy init -o smithy-typescript-example-client
cd smithy-typescript-example-client/

This will create a project with the following directory structure:

smithy-typescript-example-client/
├── README.md
├── models
│   └── weather.smithy
└── smithy-build.json

To add a minimal typescript-client-codegen plugin, add the following to smithy-build.json:

// smithy-build.json
{
    "version": "1.0",
    "sources": ["models"],
    // Add the Smithy TypeScript code generator dependency
    "maven": {
        "dependencies": [
            "software.amazon.smithy.typescript:smithy-typescript-codegen:0.19.0"
        ]
    },
    "plugins": {
        // Add the Smithy TypeScript client plugin
        "typescript-client-codegen": {
            // Minimal configuration: add package name and version
            "package": "@smithy/typescript-example-client",
            "packageVersion": "0.0.1"
        }
    }
}

After smithy-build.json has been configured, run smithy build. This will code generate the TypeScript client under the source projection, found in the build/smithy/source/typescript-client-codegen directory.

Verify the client is able to compile by running the following:

cd build/smithy/source/typescript-client-codegen
# Yarn is used in this example, but equivalent commands using other package managers can be used, e.g. npm and pnpm
yarn
yarn build

Note that running the NPM scripts to verify the generated TypeScript client is NOT part of the code generation process, and needs to be explicitly executed after the client is generated.

Using Smithy TypeScript with Gradle

Using the Smithy CLI, a new Gradle project can be created using the quickstart-gradle template. In this example, the project will be called smithy-typescript-example-client-gradle.

smithy init -t quickstart-gradle -o smithy-typescript-example-client-gradle
cd smithy-typescript-example-client-gradle/

This will create a project with the following directory structure:

smithy-typescript-example-client-gradle/
├── README.md
├── build.gradle.kts
├── gradle
│   └── wrapper
│       ├── gradle-wrapper.jar
│       └── gradle-wrapper.properties
├── gradle.properties
├── gradlew
├── gradlew.bat
├── models
│   └── weather.smithy
├── settings.gradle.kts
└── smithy-build.json

To add a minimal typescript-client-codegen plugin, add the following to smithy-build.json:

// smithy-build.json
{
    "version": "1.0",
    "sources": ["models"],
    "plugins": {
        // Add the Smithy TypeScript client plugin
        "typescript-client-codegen": {
            // Minimal configuration: add package name and version
            "package": "@smithy/typescript-example-client",
            "packageVersion": "0.0.1"
        }
    }
}

Note: Maven dependencies cannot be configured in smithy-build.json for Gradle projects.

Then, add the smithy-typescript-codegen dependency in build.gradle.kts:

plugins {
    id("java-library")
    id("software.amazon.smithy.gradle.smithy-jar").version("0.10.1")
}

repositories {
    mavenLocal()
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    val smithyVersion: String by project

    smithyCli("software.amazon.smithy:smithy-cli:$smithyVersion")

    // Add the Smithy TypeScript code generator dependency
    implementation("software.amazon.smithy.typescript:smithy-typescript-codegen:0.19.0")

    // Uncomment below to add various smithy dependencies (see full list of smithy dependencies in https://github.com/awslabs/smithy)
    // implementation("software.amazon.smithy:smithy-model:$smithyVersion")
    // implementation("software.amazon.smithy:smithy-linters:$smithyVersion")
}

After smithy-build.json and build.gradle.kts have been configured, run ./gradlew clean build. This will code generate the TypeScript client under the source projection, found in the build/smithyprojections/quickstart-gradle/source/typescript-client-codegen directory.

Verify the client is able to compile by running the following:

cd build/smithyprojections/quickstart-gradle/source/typescript-client-codegen
# Yarn is used in this example, but equivalent commands using other package managers can be used, e.g. npm and pnpm
yarn
yarn build

Note that running the NPM scripts to verify the generated TypeScript client is NOT part of the code generation process, and needs to be explicitly executed after the client is generated.

For another example of a Gradle project using Smithy Typescript, the smithy-typescript-codegen-test package can be referenced as it builds different TypeScript artifacts through projections.

See the Smithy documentation for more information on build Smithy projects with Gradle.

Note: the Smithy Gradle Plugin is under heavy development and is subject to breaking changes.

TypeScript code generation

By default, the Smithy TypeScript code generators provide the code generation framework to generate TypeScript artifacts (e.g. types, interfaces, implementations) of specified Smithy models. However there are implementations for code generation and TypeScript that either need to be implemented or consumed from third-party packages:

Client SDK code generation: typescript-client-codegen plugin

typescript-client-codegen plugin configuration

Note: Although plugin configuration is maintained with backward compatibility in mind, breaking changes may still occur.

TypeScriptSettings contains all of the settings enabled from smithy-build.json and helper methods and types. The up-to-date list of top-level properties enabled for typescript-client-codegen can be found in TypeScriptSettings.ArtifactType.CLIENT.

Setting Required Description
package Yes Name of the package in package.json.
packageVersion Yes Version of the package in package.json.
packageDescription No Description of the package in package.json. The default value is ${package} client
packageJson No Custom package.json properties that will be merged with the base package.json. The default value is an empty object.
packageManager No Configured package manager for the package. The default value is yarn.
service No The Shape ID of the service to generate a client for. If not provided, the code generator will attempt to infer the service Shape ID. If there is exactly 1 service found in the model, then the service is used as the inferred Shape ID. If no services are found, then code generation fails. If more than 1 service is found, then code generation fails.
protocol No The Shape ID of the protocol used to generate serialization and deserialization. If not provided, the code generator will attempt to resolve the highest priority service protocol supported in code generation (registered through TypeScriptIntegration). If no protocols are found, code generation will use serialization and deserialization error stubs.
private No Whether the package is private in package.json. The default value is false.
requiredMemberMode No NOT RECOMMENDED DUE TO BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY CONCERNS. Sets whether members marked with the @required trait are allowed to be undefined. See more details on the risks in TypeScriptSettings.RequiredMemberMode. The default value is nullable.
createDefaultReadme No Whether to generate a default README.md for the package. The default value is false.
experimentalIdentityAndAuth No Experimental feature that standardizes identity and auth integrations to match the Smithy specification (see Authentication Traits). See the experimental features section for more details.

typescript-client-codegen plugin artifacts

Smithy TypeScript clients are extensible (see the AWS blog post on the middleware stack), robust, and support multiple JavaScript platforms. The main components of a client are the following ($SERVICE is the name of a Smithy service, $OPERATION is the name of a Smithy operation, $N is a number starting from 0):

  • Client classes: A standalone tree-shakeable client defined in src/$SERVICEClient.ts and an aggregated client defined in src/$SERVICE.ts. The client classes are the entry point to calling a service, defining the input configuration of the service and adding any service-level middleware.
    import {
      $SERVICEClient,
      $SERVICE
    } from "..."; // example client package
    
    const individualClient = new $SERVICEClient({
      // Input configuration with type hints
    });
    
    const aggregatedClient = new $SERVICE({
      // Input configuration with type hints
    });
  • Command classes: Individual commands defined in src/commands/$OPERATIONCommand.ts. These classes include operation-level middleware and additional values to the client resolved configuration through the middleware context.
    import {
      $SERVICEClient,
      $OPERATIONCommand,
      $OPERATIONCommandOutput
    } from "..."; // example client package
    
    const individualClient = new $SERVICEClient({
      // Input configuration with type hints
    });
    
    const response: Promise<$OPERATIONCommandOutput> = individualClient.send(new $OPERATIONCommand({
      // Operation input with type hints
      // Operations can also be called callback style or with HandlerOptions
    }));
  • Models: Types and interfaces exported from models/index.ts, found individually in models/model_$N.ts, and errors including a base $SERVICEServicexception.ts.
    import {
      $SERVICEClient,
      $SERVICEServiceException,
      $OPERATIONCommand,
      $OPERATIONCommandOutput
    } from "..."; // example client package
    
    const individualClient = new $SERVICEClient({
      // Input configuration with type hints
    });
    
    try {
      // $OPERATIONCommandOutput generated from the Smithy model
      const response: $OPERATIONCommandOutput = await individualClient.send(new $OPERATIONCommand({}));
    } catch (error) {
      // If more errors are defined in the Smithy model, then more extensive checks can be made
      if (error instanceof $SERVICEServiceException) {
        console.error("Oh no, a service exception was thrown!");
      }
      throw error;
    }
  • Runtime Configurations: Populated default values for a client input configuration for different platforms, currently supporting Node.js, Browser, and React-Native. All of these have a shared runtime configuration that is overwritten with more specific platform values. Not every client input configuration needs a default value, but it is best practice to provide a reasonable default. For example, the extensions property defaults to an empty array when no runtime extensions are specified.

    Most-specific (overrides values from parent)
    
  • Runtime Extensions: Interfaces to implement extensions enabling alternative default values to the runtime configuration. See the section on customizing TypeScript Client Configuration for more details.
  • Package Configuration files: package.json and TypeScript configuration files for different platforms.

Other directories could include code generated paginators, waiters, endpoint resolvers, etc., but are usually generated only when traits are present. If code-generating custom files for the SDK client, it is recommended to use a separate directory for separation of concerns.

Here is the directory structure of the generated artifacts from the example client in the getting started section.

Code generation implementations not included

Smithy TypeScript provides default code generation implementations for generating TypeScript clients, but also requires customers to either implement or consume certain implementations where there is no default.

For Smithy TypeScript clients, the main implementations not provided are protocol generators and handling endpoint resolution (see the TypeScript code generation section).

If there are items missing from this section, feel free to create an issue.

Protocol generator implementations

Protocols define how operation inputs and outputs are serialized and deserialized on the wire. This behavior can be defined in Smithy through protocol traits with corresponding implementations of the ProtocolGenerator interface in Smithy TypeScript. Besides the ProtocolGenerator interface, Smithy TypeScript has additional abstract classes that partially implement the ProtocolGenerator interface and can be extended: HttpBindingProtocolGenerator for HTTP binding protocols and HttpRpcProtocolGenerator for HTTP RPC protocols.

Once a ProtocolGenerator is implemented, the implementation can be registered through a TypeScriptIntegration:

  • TypeScriptIntegration with ProtocolGenerator implementation:
    // src/main/java/typescript/example/client/gradle/ExampleClientProtocolGeneratorIntegration.java
    package typescript.example.client.gradle;
    
    // ...
    
    public class ExampleClientProtocolGeneratorIntegration implements TypeScriptIntegration {
        // ProtocolGenerator implementation is inline for brevity, but should be in its
        // own file
        private static class ExampleClientProtocolGenerator implements ProtocolGenerator {
            // Protocol generator for a @example.client#protocol protocol trait
            @Override
            public ShapeId getProtocol() {
                return ShapeId.from("example.client#protocol");
            }
            // Implement ProtocolGenerator methods ...
        }
    
        @Override
        public List<ProtocolGenerator> getProtocolGenerators() {
            return List.of(new ExampleClientProtocolGenerator());
        }
    }
  • Registering the TypeScriptIntegration:
    // src/main/resources/META-INF/services/software.amazon.smithy.typescript.codegen.integration.TypeScriptIntegration
    typescript.example.client.gradle.ExampleClientProtocolGeneratorIntegration

See the section on customizations via TypeScriptIntegration for more details.

Note: AWS SDK for JavaScript v3, a customer of Smithy TypeScript, implements the AWS protocols and can be consumed by adding the software.amazon.smithy.typescript:smithy-aws-typescript-codegen package.

Handling endpoint resolution

Endpoint resolution is not implemented by default due to the inherent complexity. By default, if no endpoint resolution is provided, customers will not be able to pass in an endpoint to the client (TypeScript will fail to compile).

Smithy TypeScript has the CustomEndpoints configuration which can be used to add the endpoint property to the client configuration, and the TypeScriptIntegration::getRuntimeConfigWriters() method can be used to provide a default endpoint:

  • TypeScriptIntegration implementation:
    // src/main/java/typescript/example/client/gradle/ExampleClientEndpointResolutionIntegration.java
    package typescript.example.client.gradle;
    
    // ...
    
    public class ExampleClientEndpointResolutionIntegration implements TypeScriptIntegration {
        @Override
        public List<RuntimeClientPlugin> getClientPlugins() {
            return List.of(
                RuntimeClientPlugin.builder()
                    .withConventions(
                        TypeScriptDependency.CONFIG_RESOLVER.dependency,
                        "CustomEndpoints",
                        Convention.HAS_CONFIG)
                    .build());
        }
    
        @Override
        public Map<String, Consumer<TypeScriptWriter>> getRuntimeConfigWriters(
            TypeScriptSettings settings,
            Model model,
            SymbolProvider symbolProvider,
            LanguageTarget target
        ) {
            // Runtime config value also be specified per platform by using the `target`
            // argument, e.g.
            // if (target.equals(LanguageTarget.NODE)) { ... }
            if (target.equals(LanguageTarget.SHARED)) {
                // This example provides an arbitrary endpoint on the shared runtime config
                return Map.of("endpoint", w -> w.write("$S", "https://www.example.com"));
            }
            // No need to redefine endpoint for other targets since it's inherited from the
            // shared target
            return Collections.emptyMap();
        }
    }
  • Registering the TypeScriptIntegration:
    // src/main/resources/META-INF/services/software.amazon.smithy.typescript.codegen.integration.TypeScriptIntegration
    typescript.example.client.gradle.ExampleClientEndpointResolutionIntegration

Customers can then pass in an endpoint to the client configuration:

import {
  $SERVICEClient,
} from "..."; // example client package

// Without providing the endpoint, a "No valid endpoint provider available." error will be thrown
const individualClient = new $SERVICEClient({
  // string
  endpoint: "https://www.example.com",
});

See the section on customizations via TypeScriptIntegration for more details.

Publishing a Client SDK package

Note: There is no prescribed way to publish NPM packages since there are many ways to maintain SDKs. Some publishing tools include using npm publish or yarn publish directly, or managing a monorepo with tools like turbo. This section provides tips for how a general publishing workflow could work.

A generated client is a package that is ready to be published. After running smithy build, the generated client artifacts will be in the build directory under the projection and plugin name. For example, generated client artifacts for the source projection using the typescript-client-codegen plugin in a Smithy CLI project would be in the build/smithy/source/typescript-client-codegen/ directory. A common practice is to copy the generated client artifacts into a source control repository. After the artifacts are staged, any modifications that are needed prior to publishing the generated client artifacts specific to the SDK should be run, e.g. adding a README.md, editing changelog entries. Finally, with a chosen publishing tool for the SDK, publish the artifacts after running the prepack script per client package.

Server SDK code generation: typescript-server-codegen plugin

For documentation of typescript-server-codegen artifacts and implementation, see the Smithy TypeScript Server SDK walkthrough and Developer Preview announcement blog post.

typescript-server-codegen plugin configuration

Note: Although plugin configuration is maintained with backward compatibility in mind, breaking changes may still occur.

TypeScriptSettings contains all of the settings enabled from smithy-build.json and helper methods and types. The up-to-date list of top-level properties enabled for typescript-server-codegen can be found in TypeScriptSettings.ArtifactType.SSDK.

Setting Required Description
package Yes Name of the package in package.json.
packageVersion Yes Version of the package in package.json.
packageDescription No Description of the package in package.json. The default value is ${package} server.
packageJson No Custom package.jsonproperties that will be merged with the base package.json. The default value is an empty object.
packageManager No Configured package manager for the package. The default value is yarn.
service No The Shape ID of the service to generate a client for. If not provided, the code generator will attempt to infer the service Shape ID. If there is exactly 1 service found in the model, then the service is used as the inferred Shape ID. If no services are found, then code generation fails. If more than 1 service is found, then code generation fails.
protocol No The Shape ID of the protocol used to generate serialization and deserialization. If not provided, the code generator will attempt to resolve the highest priority service protocol supported in code generation (registered through TypeScriptIntegration). If no protocols are found, code generation will use serialization and deserialization error stubs.
private No Whether the package is private in package.json. The default value is false.
requiredMemberMode No NOT RECOMMENDED DUE TO BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY CONCERNS. Sets whether members marked with the @required trait are allowed to be undefined. See more details on the risks in TypeScriptSettings.RequiredMemberMode. The default value is nullable.
createDefaultReadme No Whether to generate a default README.md for the package. The default value is false.
disableDefaultValidation No Whether or not default validation is disabled. See the documentation for Smithy TypeScript SSDK validation to learn more. The default value is false.

Adding customizations to Smithy TypeScript

Using third-party packages

Third-party packages may provide implementations and integrations for code generation, and can be consumed like any other Java dependency. For example, AWS SDK for JavaScript v3 implements AWS customizations, protocols, and other utilities used for code generating the SDK, and can be consumed by importing the software.amazon.smithy.typescript:smithy-aws-typescript-codegen package.

In an idiomatic Smithy CLI project, the dependency can be added similar to how the core smithy-typescript-codegen dependency is added in the section using Smithy TypeScript with the Smithy CLI.

In a Gradle project, the dependency can be added similar to how the core smithy-typescript-codegen dependency is added in the section using Smithy TypeScript with Gradle.

If a third-party package does not publish artifacts to an external code repository (e.g. Maven), the code may need to be built from source and published to the build environment's Maven Local Repository, typically through a command similar to ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal.

Note: Currently there is no utility to remove or disable integrations that are loaded. If a third-party package's integration has behavior that is not expected (e.g. customizing without reacting to the model, settings, or feature flags), it may be an sign that the underlying implementation does not follow best practices.

Customizations via TypeScriptIntegration

Smithy TypeScript code generation can be customized by implementing the TypeScriptIntegration interface, which also extends the SmithyIntegration interface. These integrations are typically implemented and packaged in Java Gradle projects that depend on smithy-typescript-codegen (for the TypeScriptIntegration interface) and built as consumable Java libraries.

Each TypeScriptIntegration implementation consists of two paired changes:

  • An implementation of TypeScriptIntegration, and

    // src/main/java/example/smithy/typescript/integration/ExampleSmithyTypeScriptIntegration.java
    
    package example.smithy.typescript.integration;
    
    // Import the TypeScriptIntegration interface
    import software.amazon.smithy.typescript.codegen.integration.TypeScriptIntegration;
    
    public final class ExampleSmithyTypeScriptIntegration implements TypeScriptIntegration {
      // Implement TypeScriptIntegration or SmithyIntegration methods, e.g. SmithyIntegration::customize
    }
  • A corresponding entry in the service loader for TypeScriptIntegration

    // src/main/resources/META-INF/services/software.amazon.smithy.typescript.codegen.integration.TypeScriptIntegration
    // Note that entry is the canonical name of the implemented TypeScriptIntegration
    // To add more integrations, add an entry per line
    
    example.smithy.typescript.integration.ExampleSmithyTypeScriptIntegration

Once the Java libary is built, the library can be consumed as a third-party package, and the integrations will automatically be loaded via Java SPI.

The easiest way to see how the individual methods on TypeScriptIntegration (and by extension SmithyIntegration) are used in the code generation process is by searching by usage at a given Smithy TypeScript version, as method usages are subject to change.

Note: if an existing integration point does not exist on TypeScriptIntegration or SmithyIntegration, check if the RuntimeClientPlugin abstraction has an integration point. If not, create a feature request with the incompatible use case.

Note: Although the TypeScriptIntegration interface is maintained with backward compatibility in mind, the interface may be subject to breaking changes as it is annotated with @SmithyUnstableApi. Methods may also have additional individual annotations that should be noted (e.g. @SmithyInternalApi).

An example of a Java Gradle project that provides customizations can be found in smithy-typescript-codegen-test/example-weather-customizations.

TypeScript client configuration

During code generation, code generators should provide a default value for each client's input configuration property through a client's runtime configuration. If there are use cases in which configuration may need a specific set of values (e.g. specific features like using HTTP/2), writing a RuntimeExtension that has those specific configuration property values may make sense.

For example, a team that publishes a client for the Weather service in a package named @example/weather may write and publish a RuntimeExtension that provides the configuration values needed to use HTTP/2 with the service:

// Http2HandlerRuntimeExtension.ts published in package @example/weather-http-2-runtime-extension

import { RuntimeExtension, WeatherExtensionConfiguration } from "@example/weather";
import { NodeHttp2Handler } from "@smithy/node-http-handler";

export class Http2HandlerRuntimeExtension implements RuntimeExtension {
  configure(extensionConfiguration: WeatherExtensionConfiguration): void {
    console.log("Enabling HTTP/2");
    extensionConfiguration.setHttpHandler(new NodeHttp2Handler());
  }
}

Then customers can opt-in to using the extension at runtime using the extensions configuration property:

import { WeatherClient } from "@example/weather";
import { Http2HandlerRuntimeExtension } from "@example/weather-http-2-runtime-extension";

const client = new WeatherClient({
  extensions: [new Http2HandlerRuntimeExtension()],
});

For more documentation, see the typescript-client-codegen section.

Local Development

This repository is in developer preview, so local changes may be needed to both build and test the code generators.

See the contributing guide for more details.

Using local code generation changes

Smithy TypeScript code generators depend on Smithy and the Smithy Gradle Plugin, and will by default use the version specified in gradle.properties. Any changes to dependencies require recursively republishing dependent packages.

Dependents of Smithy TypeScript
└──Smithy TypeScript
   ├── Smithy
   └── Smithy Gradle Plugin

For simplicity, only Smithy and Smithy TypeScript instructions are documented.

Note: the Smithy Gradle Plugin is under heavy development, so it may be difficult to test different versions.

Smithy

If using local Smithy changes, build software.amazon.smithy.* packages and publish the packages to a Maven Local Repository:

git clone https://github.com/smithy-lang/smithy.git
cd smithy
# Make intended changes, e.g. checking out a certain commit
./gradlew publishToMavenLocal

Then, update the gradle.properties property smithyVersion in the Smithy TypeScript repository locally to the artifacts' version if different than the current smithyVersion.

Smithy TypeScript

If using local Smithy TypeScript changes, build the software.amazon.smithy.typescript.* packages and publish them to a Maven Local Repository:

git clone https://github.com/awslabs/smithy-typescript.git
cd smithy-typescript
# Make intended changes, e.g. bumping the codegen artifact version
./gradlew publishToMavenLocal

Then, update the dependent package code to depend on the published version if different than the current version.

TypeScript packages changes

All TypeScript packages are included in a Yarn workspace at the root of the repository:

  • Smithy Client SDK packages are in the packages/ directory, and
  • Smithy Server SDK packages are in the smithy-typescript-ssdk-libs/ directory.

At the root of the repository, scripts defined in the root package.json are managed by Turbo. Commonly used commands during development include:

  • yarn build: build all of the packages in the repository
  • yarn test: run the unit tests of all of the packages in the repository
  • yarn test:integration: build test clients in smithy-typescript-codegen-test via the build-generated-test-packages.js script, and then run the integration tests of all of the packages in the repository

Each individual package will have at least the build script, and may have the test and test:integration scripts.

For Smithy Client SDK packages, changelogs and versioning are managed by changesets. When making changes to these package, a changeset file will need to be added via yarn changeset add with an appropriate changelog message and version bump. See the contribution guide for more details.

Testing

For both code generation and TypeScript package changes, unit tests and integration tests needs to pass.

  • To run tests for TypeScript packages, run the following at the root level: yarn test.
  • To run tests for code generation, run the following at the root level: ./gradlew clean build check.
  • To run integration tests that test both code generation and TypeScript packages using the test clients in smithy-typescript-codegen-test, run the following at the root level: yarn test:integration.

All of these checks will also run in GitHub actions when submitting a pull request or merging to main.

Updating smithy-typescript-codegen-test models

The smithy-typescript-codegen-test contains test models that test whether TypeScript packages compile correctly and code generated.

These models can be edited to test additional traits, integrations, and settings, but new projections and smithy models can also be added to test changes in isolation.

To use a generated artifact in an integration test, update the build-generated-test-packages.js file to build and copy the generated artifacts to node_modules/. Then, import the package like any other dependency in *.integ.spec.ts test files.

Troubleshooting

Many Gradle issues can be fixed by stopping the Gradle daemon by running ./gradlew --stop.
