String literals?

[Benjythebee]

In the example:

const JsonToTS = require('json-to-ts')

const json = {
  cats: [
    {name: 'Kittin'},
    {name: 'Mittin'}
  ],
  favoriteNumber: 42,
  favoriteWord: 'Hello'
}

JsonToTS(json).forEach( typeInterface => {
  console.log(typeInterface)
})

I am in a situation where I would expect

interface Cat {
  name: CatLiteralString;
}

rather than string

However I can understand situations where one would want string rather than a literal...

So my thinking is maybe we could have an option allowing us to define keys that should be string literals?

for example

JsonToTS(json,{ literals: ['name'] })

which could maybe naively treat all string name properties as literals ?

Thoughts?
