I am using swagger js codegen to generate source code in nodejs .it works superb.
However i have question ,
If we use swagger codegen and use java lang , models and handlers gets generated as part of stubs generation but in swagger js codegen it does not generate any models.
can you please guide me if we can generate models in swagger js codegen .This will actually help when there is an change in api it will automatically generate the models without we manually changing.
Kindly suggest if any other approach is available for nodejs.
Is this answer what you need?
quoting, "As opposed to previous versions of swagger-node (fka swagger-node-express), the swagger definition is used as the source of truth. There is no model file generated for each model in the application. So the -Dmodels will have no effect.
You can generate the response payload and send it back, and even configure the framework to validate that it follows the definition."

I have created apis endpoint with Swaggerhub and successfully exported to run with asp.net core. I want to test the same apis with nestjs but i found documenting with openapi but not the other way round; convert yaml to nodejs.Is there a way to generate to nestjs with typescript from OpenAPI3.0 schema?
Swagger Codegen does not offer Nestjs generator at the moment. Here is a related request but no one seems to have found the time to make the contribution yet: https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen/issues/9559
UPDATE: there's PR to add a Nestjs generator in OpenAPI Generator (a community fork of Swagger Codegen)
I believe Swagger-js-codegen can help you achieve this.
Now there seems to be one project, as far as I can see, that can generate Nest.js code from a Swagger / OpenAPI spec file:
It's called swagger-nestjs-codegen. See here on Github and here on npmjs.com. I have yet to test it, though.
I work into a existing nodeJS project and I would like to use swagger codegen to automate the documentation.
Currently I write the swagger doc after to have code and there is always a time lag between dev and production....
I find two solutions. The first generate the node js projet and after you code inside, but my project have one year and lot of code...
The second solution is to write a syntax in my code and automate the documentation after with command line but this solution don't use yaml and my actual doc is to write is Yaml...
Thanks :)
If your existing node.js project uses Express as its web framework, you could consider using swagger-spec-express which would enable you to simply annotate your existing express api with swagger info.
I am trying to mock the REST API using swagger.. I currently created nodejs project in which the default js appreas which is hello_world.js in ./api/controllers/hello_world.js.
Now I want to create a new controller and want to refer that to my YAML, that is from swaggerUI.. How can I do it? Any link would be much useful.
I am only mocking APIS, not developing.
Many thanks in advance.
Checkout the swagger codegen project, which generates server stubs based on the api specification. Node.js is among the supported languages: https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen
I have an application developed with Node.js/expressjs. It's working fine. Now I need to generate API document using Swagger. There is a module swagger-node. Do I need to re-write the whole app using this module or is there any other solution to use this module and what is the use of swagger-ui if using swagger-node.
Not from what I can tell. You should be able to generate your swagger project as described, and then just make sure that the information in the yaml file points to the actual controllers and methods that your code uses.
You can create a standalone yaml file that is compliant with Swagger/OpenAPI which can therefore be rendered into Swagger documentation. The Swagger-UI is useful for creating this yaml file. Swagger also offers various tools for testing APIs and generating code -- to use these effectively you will need a method for integrating the controller/model definitions in your yaml file into your existing codebase.
To achieve this integration I typically expose my existing codebase as an api of controller functions -- then import it as a module into the code generated by my documented API. This allows me to trust my API documentation without the burden of porting my whole codebase into Swagger's required directory structure. I believe this is the best currently available approach but is not always worthwhile.
I have some experience in Nodejs/Express, Sequelize and jwt apps.
Recently I started looking at API Designing tools/Specs like RAML -- API Designer, Swagger -- Swagger Tools
I am wondering and I found no article linking or pointing out that how can I use swagger to create/design APIs and then use it in my nodejs/express app which uses Sequelize as an ORM.
JWT functionality is added on to middleware for authentication & authorization.
As I tested so far, I can export nodejs scaffolded app structure from Swagger-Editor using Server Code. On inspection, it actually routes the calls to swagger/YAML files.
How can I use sequelize alongside it?
Also, how do you guys go around from API Spec/Design to App (tools or workflow).
Please point where I am going wrong.
You can take a look at the official documentation here. The docs might be written for v1.7.0 but I can tell you it's still relevant for usage in the latest Sequelize version (I have an actual server running with this design approach).
While your actual app's folder structure might be different due to Swagger's structure, but the way you use Sequelize within your app remains the same.
