OpenAPI Node.js
Code Generator



Use your API OpenAPI 3.x/Swagger 2 definition to generate Node.js ES7-compliant code for your API.

The generated code features:

  • ES7
  • ESLint
  • YAML config file
  • Express
  • No transpiling

Install

To use it from the CLI:

npm install -g swagger-node-codegen

To use it as a module in your project:

npm install --save swagger-node-codegen

Requirements

  • Node.js v7.6+

Usage

From the command-line interface (CLI)

  Usage: snc [options] <swaggerFile>


  Options:

    -V, --version                  output the version number
    -o, --output <outputDir>       directory where to put the generated files (defaults to current directory)
    -t, --templates <templateDir>  directory where templates are located (defaults to internal nodejs templates)
    -h, --help                     output usage information

Examples

The shortest possible syntax:

snc swagger.yaml

Specify where to put the generated code:

snc swagger.yaml -o ./my-api

As a module in your project

const path = require('path');
const codegen = require('swagger-node-codegen');
const swagger = require('./swagger.json');

codegen.generate({
  swagger,
  target_dir: path.resolve(__dirname, './my-api')
}).then(() => {
  console.log('Done!');
}).catch(err => {
  console.error(`Something went wrong: ${err.message}`);
});

The swagger parameter can be either JSON or a path pointing to a JSON or YAML file.

const path = require('path');
const codegen = require('swagger-node-codegen');

codegen.generate({
  swagger: path.resolve(__dirname, './swagger.yml'),
  target_dir: path.resolve(__dirname, './my-api')
}).then(() => {
  console.log('Done!');
}).catch(err => {
  console.error(`Something went wrong: ${err.message}`);
});

Using async/await

The function codegen.generate returns a Promise, so it means you can use async/await:

const path = require('path');
const codegen = require('swagger-node-codegen');

try {
  await codegen.generate({
    swagger: path.resolve(__dirname, './swagger.yml'),
    target_dir: path.resolve(__dirname, './my-api')
  });
  console.log('Done!');
} catch (err) {
  console.error(`Something went wrong: ${err.message}`);
}
