TSCLIENT
Control TypeScript client code generation for individual endpoints using custom parameter annotations.
Requires Configuration
TypeScript client generation must be enabled in the Code Generation configuration (ClientCodeGen.Enabled = true).
Syntax
code
@tsclient = <true|false>
@tsclient_module = <module_name>
@tsclient_events = <true|false>
@tsclient_parse_url = <true|false>
@tsclient_parse_request = <true|false>
@tsclient_status_code = <true|false>
@tsclient_export_url = <true|false>
@tsclient_url_only = <true|false>Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
tsclient | Set to false, off, disabled, disable, or 0 to disable TypeScript client code generation for the endpoint. |
tsclient_module | Sets a different module name for the generated TypeScript client file. Endpoints with the same module name are grouped into the same file. |
tsclient_events | Enable or disable SSE events parameter for endpoints with SSE events enabled. |
tsclient_parse_url | Enable or disable parseUrl parameter in the generated function. |
tsclient_parse_request | Enable or disable parseRequest parameter in the generated function. |
tsclient_status_code | Enable or disable status code in the return value. |
tsclient_export_url | When true, exports a URL constant for this endpoint regardless of the global ExportUrls setting. |
tsclient_url_only | When true, only the URL constant and request interface are exported — the fetch function and response type are skipped. Implies tsclient_export_url = true. Useful for endpoints consumed via browser navigation (e.g., table format downloads). |
Examples
Disable Generation
Use @tsclient = false to skip client generation for endpoints that return binary data or are not useful in the TypeScript client:
sql
create function get_image(_id int)
returns bytea
language sql
begin atomic;
select data from images where id = _id;
end;
comment on function get_image(int) is '
HTTP GET
@tsclient = false
';URL-Only Export
Use @tsclient_url_only = true for endpoints consumed via browser navigation rather than fetch — such as table format downloads or file exports:
sql
create function get_data(
_format text,
_excel_file_name text = null,
_excel_sheet text = null
)
returns table (int_val int, text_val text, date_val date)
language sql
begin atomic;
select * from data;
end;
comment on function get_data(text, text, text) is '
HTTP GET
@table_format = {_format}
@excel_file_name = {_excel_file_name}
@excel_sheet = {_excel_sheet}
@tsclient_url_only = true
';This generates only the URL builder and request interface:
typescript
export const getDataUrl = (request: IGetDataRequest) =>
baseUrl + "/api/get-data" + parseQuery(request);
interface IGetDataRequest {
format: string | null;
excelFileName?: string | null;
excelSheet?: string | null;
}Custom Module
Use @tsclient_module to group endpoints from different schemas into the same generated file:
sql
comment on function public.get_users() is '
HTTP GET
@tsclient_module = admin
';
comment on function auth.get_roles() is '
HTTP GET
@tsclient_module = admin
';Both endpoints will be generated in the admin module file.
