# falcon-apispec

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/alysivji/falcon-apispec.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/alysivji/falcon-apispec) [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/alysivji/falcon-apispec/branch/master/graph/badge.svg)](https://codecov.io/gh/alysivji/falcon-apispec) [![PyPI](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/falcon-apispec.svg)](https://pypi.org/project/falcon-apispec/) [![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)

[apispec](https://github.com/marshmallow-code/apispec) plugin that generates OpenAPI specification (aka Swagger) for [Falcon](https://falconframework.org/) web applications.

Apispec uses three sources of information. Basic information is directly given to `APISpec()`. The plugin reads information about paths from the Falcon app. Information about an object could be given by [marshmallow](https://marshmallow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/) specification

## Installation

```console
pip install falcon-apispec
```

Optionaly:
```console
pip install marshmallow
```

Works with `apispec v1.0+`.

## Example Application

```python
from apispec import APISpec
from apispec.ext.marshmallow import MarshmallowPlugin
import falcon
from falcon_apispec import FalconPlugin
from marshmallow import Schema, fields

# Optional marshmallow support
class CategorySchema(Schema):
id = fields.Int()
name = fields.Str(required=True)

class PetSchema(Schema):
category = fields.Nested(CategorySchema, many=True)
name = fields.Str()

# Create Falcon web app
app = falcon.API()

class RandomPetResource:
def on_get(self, req, resp):
"""A cute furry animal endpoint.
---
description: Get a random pet
responses:
200:
description: A pet to be returned
schema: PetSchema
"""
pet = get_random_pet() # returns JSON
resp.media = pet

# create instance of resource
random_pet_resource = RandomPetResource()
# pass into `add_route` for Falcon
app.add_route("/random", random_pet_resource)

# Create an APISpec
spec = APISpec(
title='Swagger Petstore',
version='1.0.0',
openapi_version='2.0',
plugins=[
FalconPlugin(app),
MarshmallowPlugin(),
],
)

# Register entities and paths
spec.components.schema('Category', schema=CategorySchema)
spec.components.schema('Pet', schema=PetSchema)
# pass created resource into `path` for APISpec
spec.path(resource=random_pet_resource)
```
