# openapi-generator

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/elbywan/openapi-generator.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/elbywan/openapi-generator)

#### Generate an [OpenAPI v3 compliant](https://swagger.io/specification/) yaml file declaratively from your web framework code.

Then serve it from a [Swagger UI](https://swagger.io/tools/swagger-ui/) instance.

## Setup

1. Add the dependency to your `shard.yml`:

```yaml
dependencies:
openapi-generator:
github: elbywan/openapi-generator
```

2. Run `shards install`

3. Require the shard

```crystal
require "openapi-generator"
```

## API Documentation

[**🔗 Full API documentation.**](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator.html)

## Concepts

### Declare Operations

*From the [OpenAPI specification](https://swagger.io/docs/specification/paths-and-operations/).*

> In OpenAPI terms, paths are endpoints (resources), such as /users or /reports/summary/, that your API exposes, and operations are the HTTP methods used to manipulate these paths, such as GET, POST or DELETE.

#### Method based (`Amber`, `Spider-gazelle`)

Use the `@[OpenAPI]` annotation with a `yaml` encoded string argument.

```crystal
class Controller
include OpenAPI::Generator::Controller

@[OpenAPI(<<-YAML
tags:
- tag
summary:
A brief summary.
YAML
)]
def handler
# …
end
end
```

#### Class based (`Lucky`)

Use the `open_api` macro with a `yaml` encoded string argument.

```crystal
class Handler
include OpenAPI::Generator::Controller

open_api <<-YAML
tags:
- tag
summary:
A brief summary.
YAML

route do
# …
end
end
```

#### Shorthands

The [`OpenAPI::Generator::Controller::Schema`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/Controller/Schema.html) class exposes shorthands for common OpenAPI yaml constructs.

```crystal
# Example:

open_api <<-YAML
tags:
- tag
summary:
A brief summary.
parameters:
#{Schema.qp name: "id", description: "Filter by id.", required: true}
responses:
200:
description: OK
#{Schema.error 404}
YAML
```

- [`Schema.error(code, message = nil)`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/Controller/Schema.html#error(code,message=nil)-instance-method)
- [`Schema.header(name, description, type = "string")`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/Controller/Schema.html#header(name,description,type=%22string%22)-instance-method)
- [`Schema.header_param(name, description, *, required = false, type = "string")`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/Controller/Schema.html#header_param(name,description,*,required=false,type=%22string%22)-instance-method)
- [`Schema.qp(name, description, *, required = false, type = "string")`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/Controller/Schema.html#qp(name,description,*,required=false,type=%22string%22)-instance-method)
- [`Schema.ref(schema, *, content_type = "application/json")`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/Controller/Schema.html#ref(schema,*,content_type=%22application/json%22)-instance-method)
- [`Schema.ref_array(schema, *, content_type = "application/json")`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/Controller/Schema.html#ref_array(schema,*,content_type=%22application/json%22)-instance-method)
- [`Schema.string_array(*, content_type = "application/json")`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/Controller/Schema.html#string_array(*,content_type=%22application/json%22)-instance-method)

### `openapi.yaml` Generation

**After** declaring the operations, you can call `OpenAPI::Generator.generate` to generate the `openapi.yaml` file that will describe your server.

**Note**: An [`OpenAPI::Generator::RoutesProvider::Base`](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/RoutesProvider.html) implementation must be provided. A `RoutesProvider` is responsible from extracting the [server routes and mapping these routes with the declared operations](https://elbywan.github.io/openapi-generator/OpenAPI/Generator/RouteMapping.html) in order to produce the final openapi file.

```crystal
OpenAPI::Generator.generate(
provider: provider
)
```

Currently, the [Amber](https://amberframework.org/), [Lucky](https://luckyframework.org), [Spider-gazelle](https://spider-gazelle.net/) providers are included out of the box.

Amber

```crystal
# Amber provider
require "openapi-generator/providers/amber"

OpenAPI::Generator.generate(
provider: OpenAPI::Generator::RoutesProvider::Amber.new
)
```

Lucky

```crystal
# Lucky provider
require "openapi-generator/providers/lucky"

OpenAPI::Generator.generate(
provider: OpenAPI::Generator::RoutesProvider::Lucky.new
)
```

Spider-gazelle

```crystal
# Spider-gazelle provider
require "openapi-generator/providers/action-controller"

OpenAPI::Generator.generate(
provider: OpenAPI::Generator::RoutesProvider::ActionController.new
)
```

Custom

```crystal
# Or define your own…
class MockProvider < OpenAPI::Generator::RoutesProvider::Base
def route_mappings : Array(OpenAPI::Generator::RouteMapping)
[
{"get", "/{id}", "HelloController::index", ["id"]},
{"head", "/{id}", "HelloController::index", ["id"]},
{"options", "/{id}", "HelloController::index", ["id"]},
]
end
end

OpenAPI::Generator.generate(
provider: MockProvider.new
)
```

The `.generate` method accepts additional options:

```crystal
OpenAPI::Generator.generate(
provider: provider,
options: {
# Customize output path
output: Path[Dir.current] / "public" / "openapi.yaml"
},
# Customize openapi.yaml base document fields
base_document: {
info: {
title: "My Server",
version: "v0.1",
}
}
)
```

### Schema Serialization

Adding `extend OpenAPI::Generator::Serializable` to an existing class or struct will:
- register the object as a reference making it useable anywhere in the openapi file
- add a `.to_openapi_schema` method that will produce the associated `OpenAPI::Schema`

```crystal
class Coordinates
extend OpenAPI::Generator::Serializable

def initialize(@lat, @long); end

property lat : Int32
property long : Int32
end

# Produces an OpenAPI::Schema reference.
puts Coordinates.to_openapi_schema.to_yaml
# ---
# allOf:
# - $ref: '#/components/schemas/Coordinates'
```

And in the `openapi.yaml` file that gets generated, the `Coordinates` object is registered as a `/components/schemas/Coordinates` reference.

```yaml
components:
schemas:
Coordinates:
required:
- lat
- long
type: object
properties:
lat:
type: integer
long:
type: integer
```

#### In practice

The object can now be referenced from the yaml declaration…

```crystal
class Controller
include OpenAPI::Generator::Controller

@[OpenAPI(<<-YAML
requestBody:
required: true
content:
#{Schema.ref Coordinates}
YAML
)]
def method
# …
end
end
```

…and it can be used by the schema inference (more on that later).

```crystal
class Hello::Index < Lucky::Action
include OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::Lucky

disable_cookies
default_format :text

post "/hello" do
coordinates = body_as Coordinates?, description: "Some coordinates."

plain_text "Hello (#{coordinates.x}, #{coordinates.y})"
end
end
```

#### Customize fields

Use the `@[OpenAPI::Field]` annotation to add properties to the fields.

```crystal
class MyClass
extend OpenAPI::Generator::Serializable

# Ignore the field. It will not appear in the schema.
@[OpenAPI::Field(ignore: true)]
property ignored_field

# Enforce a type in the schema and disregard the crystal type.
@[OpenAPI::Field(type: String)]
property str_field : Int32

# Add an example that will appear in swagger for instance.
@[OpenAPI::Field(example: "an example value")]
property some_field : String

# Will not appear in POST / PUT/ PATCH requests body.
@[OpenAPI::Field(read_only: true)]
property read_only_field : String

# Will only appear in POST / PUT / PATCH requests body.
@[OpenAPI::Field(write_only: true)]
property write_only_field : String
end
```

## Inference (Optional)

`openapi-generator` can infer some schema properties from the code, removing the need to declare it with yaml.

**Can be inferred:**
- Request body
- Response body
- Query parameters

**Supported Frameworks:**

Amber

```crystal
require "openapi-generator/helpers/amber"

# …declare routes and operations… #

# Before calling .generate you need to bootstrap the amber inference:
OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::Amber.bootstrap
```

#### Example

```crystal
require "openapi-generator/helpers/amber"

class Coordinates
include JSON::Serializable
extend OpenAPI::Generator::Serializable

def initialize(@x, @y); end

property x : Int32
property y : Int32
end

class CoordinatesController < Amber::Controller::Base
include ::OpenAPI::Generator::Controller
include ::OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::Amber

@[OpenAPI(
<<-YAML
summary: Adds up a Coordinate object and a number.
YAML
)]
def add
# Infer query parameter.
add = query_params("add", description: "Add this number to the coordinates.").to_i32
# Infer body as a Coordinate json payload.
coordinates = body_as(::Coordinates, description: "Some coordinates").not_nil!
coordinates.x += add
coordinates.y += add

# Infer responses.
respond_with 200, description: "Returns a Coordinate object with the number added up." do
json coordinates, type: ::Coordinates
xml %(), type: String
text "Coordinates (#{coordinates.x}, #{coordinates.y})", type: String
end
end
end
```

#### API

`openapi-generator` overload existing or adds similar methods and macros to intercept calls and infer schema properties.

*Query parameters*

- `macro query_params(name, description, multiple = false, schema = nil, **args)`
- `macro query_params?(name, description, multiple = false, schema = nil, **args)`

*Body*

- `macro body_as(type, description = nil, content_type = "application/json", constructor = :from_json)`

*Responses*

- `macro respond_with(code = 200, description = nil, headers = nil, links = nil, &)`

- `macro json(body, type = nil, schema = nil)`
- `macro xml(body, type = nil, schema = nil)`
- `macro txt(body, type = nil, schema = nil)`
- `macro text(body, type = nil, schema = nil)`
- `macro html(body, type = nil, schema = nil)`
- `macro js(body, type = nil, schema = nil)`

Lucky

```crystal
require "openapi-generator/helpers/lucky"

# …declare routes and operations… #

# Before calling .generate you need to bootstrap the lucky inference:
OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::Lucky.bootstrap
```

**Important:** In your Actions, use `include OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::Lucky` instead of `include OpenAPI::Generator::Controller`.

#### Example

```crystal
require "openapi-generator/helpers/lucky"

class Coordinates
include JSON::Serializable
extend OpenAPI::Generator::Serializable

def initialize(@x, @y); end

property x : Int32
property y : Int32
end

class Api::Coordinates::Create < Lucky::Action
# `OpenAPI::Generator::Controller` is included alongside `OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::Lucky`.
include OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::Lucky

disable_cookies
default_format :json

# Infer query parameter.
param add : Int32, description: "Add this number to the coordinates."

def action
# Infer body as a Coordinate json payload.
coordinates = body_as! ::Coordinates, description: "Some coordinates"
coordinates.x += add
coordinates.y += add

# Infer responses.
if json?
json coordinates, type: ::Coordinates
elsif xml?
xml %(), schema: OpenAPI::Schema.new(type: "string")
elsif plain_text?
plain_text "Coordinates (#{coordinates.x}, #{coordinates.y})"
else
head 406
end
end

route { action }
end
```

#### API

`openapi-generator` overload existing or adds similar methods and macros to intercept calls and infer schema properties.

*Query parameters*

- `macro param(declaration, description = nil, schema = nil, **args)`

*Body*

- `macro body_as(type, description = nil, content_type = "application/json", constructor = :from_json)`
- `macro body_as!(type, description = nil, content_type = "application/json", constructor = :from_json)`

*Responses*

- `macro json(body, status = 200, description = nil, type = nil, schema = nil, headers = nil, links = nil)`
- `macro head(status, description = nil, headers = nil, links = nil)`
- `macro xml(body, status = 200, description = nil, type = String, schema = nil, headers = nil, links = nil)`
- `macro plain_text(body, status = 200, description = nil, type = String, schema = nil, headers = nil, links = nil)`

Spider-gazelle

```crystal
require "openapi-generator/helpers/action-controller"

# …declare routes and operations… #

# Before calling .generate you need to bootstrap the spider-gazelle inference:
OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::ActionController.bootstrap
```

#### Example

```crystal
require "openapi-generator/helpers/action-controller"

class Coordinates
include JSON::Serializable
extend OpenAPI::Generator::Serializable

def initialize(@x, @y); end

property x : Int32
property y : Int32
end

class CoordinatesController < ActionController::Controller::Base
include ::OpenAPI::Generator::Controller
include ::OpenAPI::Generator::Helpers::ActionController

coordinates.y += add

# Infer responses.
respond_with 200, description: "Returns a Coordinate object with the number added up." do
json coordinates, type: ::Coordinates

## Swagger UI

The method to serve a Swagger UI instance depends on which framework you are using.

1. Setup a static file handler. (ex: [Lucky](https://luckyframework.org/guides/http-and-routing/http-handlers#built-in-handlers), [Amber](https://docs.amberframework.org/amber/guides/routing/pipelines))
2. Download [the latest release archive](https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui/releases)
3. Move the `/dist` folder to your static file directory.
4. Edit the `index.html` file and change the assets and `openapi.yaml` paths.

## Contributing

1. Fork it ()
2. Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b my-new-feature`)
3. Commit your changes (`git commit -am 'Add some feature'`)
4. Push to the branch (`git push origin my-new-feature`)
5. Create a new Pull Request

### Specs

Do **not** run `crystal specs` without arguments. It will not compile due to global cookies and session class overrides issues between Amber & Lucky.

To test the project, have a look at the `.travis.yml` file which contains the right command to use:

```sh
crystal spec ./spec/core && \
crystal spec ./spec/amber && \
crystal spec ./spec/lucky && \
crystal spec ./spec/spider-gazelle
```
