oas-nodegen

A library for generating completely customizable code from the Open API Specification (FKA Swagger) RESTful API documentation using the scripting power of Node.js.

Installation

Install oas-nodegen through npm

$ npm install oas-nodegen

Overview

This library is used to compose scripts that produce customizable output using the simple components depicted below. Most of the customization occurs in the various callbacks that the library exposes. Phase callbacks are used to modify the specification data prior to being sent to templates. The Write callbacks are used to route processed portions of the specification to their target template and location in the filesystem.

Features:

• 100% scriptable and customizable code generation.
• Loader handles loading the API specification as well as any referenced external specification.
• Modules registers and loads out of the box or custom code generation modules.
• Templates registers new template engines and compiles template source into functions.
  • The included engines are:
    • Handlebars.js
    • Hogan.js
    • Jade / Pug
    • Underscore.js
  • Template files can be overridden by adding a template directory with overlapping template file names.
• Generator takes a "composition over inheritance" approach that allows you to register any number of modules for model decoration.
• Writer handles cleaning the target directory, recursively creating directories, and writing files with content that is usually generated by templates.

Usage

Require the module before using

var nodgen = require('oas-nodegen');

var loader = nodegen.createLoader();
var modules = nodegen.createModules();
var templates = nodegen.createTemplates();
var writer = nodegen.createWriter(baseDir);
var generator = nodegen.createGenerator(config);
var utils = nodegen.Utilities;

Roadmap

Currently, this library contains several modules for generating Java-based producers and consumers. We'll likely add modules for other popular and emerging languages (e.g. Scala and Golang). That doesn't stop you from creating a module for your favorite language or framework now! The Java module is a good starting point for understanding the handling type translation and language features such as annotations, etc. If you think it would help the community, please contribute it back!

Modules

The modules below are designed to enrich the API specification with information to be used by templates. The best approach is to try to keep templates as generic and simple as possible and let the addition of modules change the generated output. For example, most of the Java-based modules below deal with annotations. The provided templates simply render the list of annotations and the modules handle the heavy lifting.

Helpers

• Operations:

  • fullPath - Concatenated base path and operation path
  • accepts - Most preferred mime type for the Accepts header
  • contentType - Most preferred mime type for the ContentType header
  • operationId - If null, set based on HTTP method and path (however, its recommended to explicitly specify operationId in the specification)
  • resolvedConsumes - Resolved consumes mimetypes for this operation or base specification
  • resolvedProduces - Resolved produces mimetypes for this operation or base specification
  • Response helpers:
    • successResponse - Property that reflects the 200 or 201 response
    • hasReturn - Boolean flag that denotes of a response body is returned
  • parameters - Updates the parameters array for filter out ignored parameters
  • isQuery - Boolean flag that denotes if the query string parameters comprise are all optional (e.g. collection query)
  • Parameter grouping by type:
    • bodyParam - The body parameter, if applicable
    • pathParams - List of path parameters
    • queryParams - List of query parameters
    • headerParams - List of header parameters
    • formParams - List of form parameters
    • requiredParams - List of all required parameters

• Models:

  • name - The model name pulled from the definitions map key
  • references - The list of models that this model references
  • referencedBy - The list of models this model is referenced by
  • recursiveReferencedBy - The recursive list of models this model is referenced by
  • required - Updated with a materialized list from other entities refereced by $allOf
  • properties - Updated with a materialized map from other entities refereced by $allOf
  • vars - The model's properties represented as a list instead of a map
  • Materialized information from other models that reference this model
    • allReferences - A recursive list of models referenced by this model
    • allProperties - All properties from this model and models that reference this model
