README
oas
Working with OpenAPI definitions is hard. This makes it easier.
Installation
npm install oas
CLI
The CLI tool makes creating API definition files easier. It currently supports OpenAPI 3.x and Swagger 2.0 documents.
Usage
Go to a directory with your API, and type:
oas init
It will walk you through how to document your API with a OpenAPI 3.0 Spec.
Swagger Inline
oas
uses swagger-inline which allows you include a little OpenAPI snippet in a comment above your code, and collects them all together into one OpenAPI file:
/*
* @oas [get] /pet/{petId}
* description: "Returns all pets from the system that the user has access to"
* parameters:
* - (path) petId=hi* {String} The pet ID
* - (query) limit {Integer:int32} The number of resources to return
*/
route.get("/pet/:petId", pet.show);
You need to start with @oas [method] path
, but everything below it is a valid Path Definition.
You can also do inline parameters, which are shorthand for parameters. They aren't valid OpenAPI properties but swagger-inline
knows how to compile them:
- (in) name=default* {type:format} Description
Tooling
This library also exposes a set of tooling to help you manage OpenAPI definitions. You can access it by loading:
import Oas from 'oas';
// or: const Oas = require('oas').default;
Also exposed within the main oas
export is an Operation
class that can help you manage and retrieve specific data from an API operation.
If you need to use this library within a browser you'll likely need to use a bundler like Webpack or Rollup.
