Gorilla Swagger

Generate a swagger dynamically based on the types used to handle request and response.

It works with gorilla-mux and uses kin-openapi to automatically generate and serve a swagger file.

To convert struct to schemas, we use jsonschema library.
The struct must contains the appropriate struct tags to be inserted in json schema to generate the schema dynamically.
It is always possible to add a totally custom swagger schema using kin-openapi

Usage

An example usage of this lib:

context := context.Background()
r := mux.NewRouter()
router, _ := swagger.NewRouter(r, gswagger.Options{
  Context: context,
  Openapi: &openapi3.Swagger{
    Info: &openapi3.Info{
      Title:   "my swagger title",
      Version: "1.0.0",
    },
  },
})

okHandler := func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request) {
  w.WriteHeader(http.StatusOK)
  w.Write([]byte("OK"))
}

router.AddRoute(http.MethodPost, "/users", okHandler, Definitions{
  RequestBody: &gswagger.ContentValue{
    Content: gswagger.Content{
      "application/json": {Value: User{}},
    },
  },
  Responses: map[int]gswagger.ContentValue{
    201: {
      Content: gswagger.Content{
        "text/html": {Value: ""},
      },
    },
    401: {
      Content: gswagger.Content{
        "application/json": {Value: &errorResponse{}},
      },
      Description: "invalid request",
    },
  },
})

router.AddRoute(http.MethodGet, "/users", okHandler, Definitions{
  Responses: map[int]ContentValue{
    200: {
      Content: Content{
        "application/json": {Value: &Users{}},
      },
    },
  },
})

carSchema := openapi3.NewObjectSchema().WithProperties(map[string]*openapi3.Schema{
  "foo": openapi3.NewStringSchema(),
  "bar": openapi3.NewIntegerSchema().WithMax(15).WithMin(5),
})
requestBody := openapi3.NewRequestBody().WithJSONSchema(carSchema)
operation := swagger.NewOperation()
operation.AddRequestBody(requestBody)

router.AddRawRoute(http.MethodPost, "/cars", okHandler, operation)

This configuration will output the schema shown here

FAQ

1. How to add format binary? Formats date-time, email, hostname, ipv4, ipv6, uri could be added with tag jsonschema. Others format could be added with tag jsonschema_extra. Not all the formats are supported (see discovered unsupported formats here).

2. How to add a swagger with allOf? You can create manually a swagger with allOf using the AddRawRoute method.

3. How to add a swagger with anyOf? You can create manually a swagger with anyOf using the AddRawRoute method.

4. How to add a swagger with oneOf? You can create manually a swagger with oneOf using the AddRawRoute method, or use the jsonschema struct tag.

Discovered unsupported schema features

Formats:

• uuid is unsupported by kin-openapi

Types

type Content

type Content map[string]Schema

Content is the type of a content. The key of the map define the content-type.

type ContentValue

type ContentValue struct {
	Content     Content
	Description string
}

ContentValue is the struct containing the content information.

type Definitions

type Definitions struct {
	PathParams  ParameterValue
	Querystring ParameterValue
	Headers     ParameterValue
	Cookies     ParameterValue
	RequestBody *ContentValue
	Responses   map[int]ContentValue
}

Definitions of the route.

type Handler

type Handler func(w http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request)

Handler is the http type handler

type Operation

type Operation struct {
	*openapi3.Operation
}

Operation type

func NewOperation

func NewOperation() Operation

NewOperation returns an OpenApi operation.

func (*Operation) AddRequestBody

func (o *Operation) AddRequestBody(requestBody *openapi3.RequestBody)

AddRequestBody set request body into operation.

func (*Operation) AddResponse

func (o *Operation) AddResponse(status int, response *openapi3.Response)

AddResponse add response to operation. It check if the description is present (otherwise default to empty string). This method does not add the default response, but it is always possible to add it manually.

type Options

type Options struct {
	Context context.Context
	Openapi *openapi3.Swagger
	// JSONDocumentationPath is the path exposed by json endpoint. Default to /documentation/json.
	JSONDocumentationPath string
	// YAMLDocumentationPath is the path exposed by yaml endpoint. Default to /documentation/yaml.
	YAMLDocumentationPath string
}

Options to be passed to create the new router and swagger

type ParameterValue

type ParameterValue map[string]struct {
	Content     Content
	Schema      *Schema
	Description string
}

ParameterValue is the struct containing the schema or the content information. If content is specified, it takes precedence.

type Router

type Router struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Router handle the gorilla mux router and the swagger schema

func NewRouter

func NewRouter(router *mux.Router, options Options) (*Router, error)

NewRouter generate new router with swagger. Default to OpenAPI 3.0.0

func (Router) AddRawRoute

func (r Router) AddRawRoute(method string, path string, handler Handler, operation Operation) (*mux.Route, error)

AddRawRoute add route to router with specific method, path and handler. Add the router also to the swagger schema, after validating it

func (Router) AddRoute

func (r Router) AddRoute(method string, path string, handler Handler, schema Definitions) (*mux.Route, error)

type Schema

type Schema struct {
