README

        
OpenAPI-Search combines multiple OpenAPIs in a fast, organized, and searchable interface.

OpenAPIs are effectively closed if there isn't an accessible way to find and use them. Big commercial API directories such as https://rapidapi.com are currently dominating the search results and the # of APIs indexed, leading many developers to a non-open API gateway. Open Source is far behind.

The best OpenAPI directory as of yet is https://apis.guru but this doesn't even reach 10% of the amount of listed APIs and there is many room for improvement.

The vision of https://openapisearch.com is to make OpenAPIs truly open by making it accessible (easy to find what you're looking for) and improving listing quality.

# Goals

Targeted improvements compared to https://apis.guru:

- Semantic search

- Related APIs

- Programmatic Registry

- Improved Website

- Chat with OpenAPIs

Wishlist:

- E2E Testing of OpenAPIs

- OpenAPI Firehose

- AI Crawler for OpenAPI Discovery

- AI Crawler to augment OpenAPI Metadata

  - Adds authentication + scope info

  - Adds useful links

  - Adds reviews

  - Adds pricing info, ratelimit info, etc

## Non-goals

- Automatically customise theming. A little is ok, but don't go to far as there may be

- Create a documatation reference website like [readme.com](https://readme.com) (there are many)

- Add weird custom logic that is non-standard to the OpenAPI. Instead, I aim to create a layer on top of openapis to improve the implementation of the standard. I'll use [actionschema](https://actionschema.com) for this.

# To reset...

- Go to https://console.upstash.com/redis/f53b821b-184a-4081-ad47-5941b63d34e7?tab=cli and run `FLUSHDB`

- Go to vector db and remove all vectors in the namespace

- run `src/reset.cli.ts`
