swagger-js

[Jacob Brauchler]

Can someone tell me what swagger-js/swagger-client is used for? Is this a way to generate the code from the documentation? I read through the documentation and I am a little confused on what it actually does.

If you don't know already, perhaps a little bg on swagger.

Swagger is a way of describing APIs. You describe your API in a swagger.json file (or similar).

swagger-js(npm: swagger-client) does a couple of things...

it de-references swagger.json files that have remote references

it can execute http requests based on that swagger.json fille, passing in arguments, etc.

for now it also includes rendering JSON and HTML of the models used in the API (although I imagine this will be extracted soon into swagger-ui, or as an independent module) This is for documentation purposes.

Hope that helps, there is the website http://swagger.io and of course the https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-js for more info!

Okay thats kind of what I was thinking I have been using swagger for a little while and was searching for a specific tool, and unfortunately the tool I need is outdated, so I was looking for a replacement.
