Description

I am trying to determine how to generate typescript d.ts files. I have experimented with https://github.com/horiuchi/dtsgenerator, and I would like to perform the equivalent function with openapi-generator. Is there a way to do this ootb? Or even with template customizations? I am not very familiar with Typescript and I was not able to determine how to to this after playing with the openapi-generator options.

I am directing this to the Typescript technical committee in hopes that they can provide some direction.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the openapi-generator TypeScript options and templates, then compare the requested output with dtsgenerator. Done means documenting an existing way to generate .d.ts files or clearly defining the required generator or template customization.
