Extends external/imported interfaces/types

I see in this plugin test fixtures that it supports generating propTypes from interfaces extending other interface, but only if the extended interface is in the same file.

Is it possible to do the same when the type/interface extends external imported interfaces? Or does this depend on the WIP feature typeCheck?

import React from 'react';
import { AProps, BProps } from './types';

export interface Props extends AProps, BProps {
  name: string;
}

export default function FuncExtendedInterfaces(props: Props) {
  return null;
}

I found this lib: https://github.com/merceyz/typescript-to-proptypes which uses the TS compiler to support conversion of both local and external interfaces. It didn’t match quite my use case (I didn’t want to mutate the input files) and didn’t include a script for generation (just an API), so bundled that into this lib: https://github.com/danReynolds/typescript-proptypes-generator that builds on it for the general purpose of converting TS files containing types/interfaces into an equivalent JS file with propTypes. Use/reference either as needed!

@ethanshar No update. Honestly, I’ll probably never have time to get around to it to do it correctly.
