Installation

npm install --save @lottie-animation-community/lottie-types

Summary

This package contains type definitions for Lottie animation format

Details

The project has been migrated from the lottiefiles organization that has been used internally. The definition types have been built based on lottie-docs/schema with a few differences: firstly, some additional informative type comments have been added through testing the schema types with real Lottie data; secondly, the types constructed in a way to avoid duplications.

Instead of writing the types manually, generating it automatically was considered but wasn't successful, for reason that most of the tools such as quicktype, json-schema-to-typescript and transform don't work well with huge JSON-schema structures with many nested layers and don't support json-schema/draft/2020-12 features such as complicated conditionals, prefixItems, and some def reference scenarios.

The schema definitions have been synced with marcusstenbeck/lottie-types as well.

Plan

• auto-generate types from lottie-docs/schema
• publish the final definition bundle to DefinitelyTyped
