Importing types into monaco editor

[stoefln]

I am using monaco editor in my react-application and would like to show code completion suggestions based on the types I created with MST. There is an example of how you can import typings, but I can't seem to figure out how I could use my existing MST models to generate those typings.
I am sure there is an easy solution, but I guess I just don't know enough about TS and MST.

Any help is very much appreciated!

Hi @stoefln!

Maybe you could set declaration to true in your tsconfig.json file to emit .d.ts files of your MST models, which you then could import into monaco?

thanks, @EmilTholin that looks promising! Unfortunately, I have a JS-only project, so I don't even have a tsconfig.json

Ah, I see. You might still be able to emit .d.ts files from your JavaScript files if you add a tsconfig.json and compile it with tsc, but I can't say for certain.
