Overview

TypeMap is a type mapping library developed for the TypeBox, Valibot and Zod runtime type libraries. It is designed to make these libraries cross compatible by structurally remapping types from one library to another. TypeMap also provides a uniform frontend syntax for creating types, as well as uniform type compilation for high-performance validation via the TypeBox compiler infrastructure.

TypeMap is built to be a simple tool to let Valibot and Zod to integrate with TypeBox and Json Schema infrastructure. It is also written to enable TypeBox to integrate with systems using Valibot and Zod for validation.

Libraries

TypeMap exports mapping functions named after the library they map for. Each function can accept a type from any other library, where the function will attempt to map the type or return a never representation if a mapping is not possible.

TypeBox

Use the TypeBox function to map the parameter into a TypeBox type

import { TypeBox } from '@sinclair/typemap'

const A = TypeBox(t.Number())                  // const A: TNumber         (TypeBox)
const B = TypeBox(v.string())                  // const B: TString         (Valibot)
const C = TypeBox(z.boolean())                 // const C: TBoolean        (Zod)
const D = TypeBox('string[]')                  // const D: TArray<TString> (Syntax)

Valibot

Use the Valibot function to map the parameter into a Valibot type

import { Valibot } from '@sinclair/typemap'

const A = Valibot(t.Number())                  // const A: v.NumberSchema     (TypeBox)
const B = Valibot(v.string())                  // const B: v.StringSchema     (Valibot)
const C = Valibot(z.boolean())                 // const C: v.BooleanSchema    (Zod)
const D = Valibot('string[]')                  // const D: v.ArraySchema<...> (Syntax)

Zod

Use the Zod function to map the parameter into a Zod type

import { Zod } from '@sinclair/typemap'

const A = Zod(t.Number())                  // const A: z.ZodNumber     (TypeBox)
const B = Zod(v.string())                  // const B: z.ZodString     (Valibot)
const C = Zod(z.boolean())                 // const C: z.ZodBoolean    (Zod)
const D = Zod('string[]')                  // const D: z.ZodArray<...> (Syntax)

Static

TypeMap can statically infer for TypeBox, Valibot, Zod and Syntax with the Static type.

import { type Static } from '@sinclair/typemap'

const T = t.Number()                                // TypeBox
const V = v.string()                                // Valibot
const Z = z.boolean()                               // Zod
const S = 'string[]'                                // Syntax

type T = Static<typeof T>                           // number
type V = Static<typeof V>                           // string
type Z = Static<typeof Z>                           // boolean 
type S = Static<typeof S>                           // string[]

Compile

TypeMap offers JIT compilation of TypeBox, Valibot, Zod and Syntax using the Compile function. This function will internally use the TypeBox TypeCompiler for high performance checking. This function will also gracefully degrade to dynamic checking if the runtime does not support JavaScript evaluation.

The Compile function returns a validator object that implements the standard-schema interface.

import { Compile } from '@sinclair/typemap'

// Pass TypeBox, Valibot, Zod or Syntax to JIT Compile the type.
const V = Compile(`{
  x: number
  y: number,
  z: number
}`)

// TypeMap Interface
const R1 = V.Check({ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 })

// Standard Schema Interface
const R2 = V['~standard'].validate({ x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 })

Benchmark

This project manages a benchmark that evaluates type-check performance using Zod, Valibot, and TypeBox validators. The benchmark is set up to run 10 million check operations per library-validator pairing and reports the elapsed time taken to complete.

Type

Benchmarks are run for the following type.

type T = { x: number, y: string, z: boolean }

Results

Results show validate performance for the type.
