ToolHive Server API Documentation

ToolHive uses OpenAPI 3.1.0 for API documentation. The documentation is generated using swag and served using Scalar.

Prerequisites

Install the required tools:

# Install swag for OpenAPI generation
go install github.com/swaggo/swag/v2/cmd/swag@v2.0.0-rc4

Generating Documentation

1. Add OpenAPI annotations to your code following the swag documentation

2. Generate the OpenAPI specification:

   # at the root of the repository run:
   swag init -g pkg/api/server.go --v3.1 -o docs/server
   

   This will generate:

   • docs/swagger.json: OpenAPI 3.1.0 specification
   • docs/swagger.yaml: YAML version of the specification
   • docs/docs.go: Go code containing the specification

Viewing Documentation

1. Start the server with OpenAPI docs enabled:

   thv serve --openapi
   

2. Access the documentation:

   • OpenAPI JSON spec: http://localhost:8080/api/openapi.json
   • Scalar UI: http://localhost:8080/api/doc

Best Practices

1. Always document:

   • Request/response schemas
   • Error responses
   • Authentication requirements
   • Query parameters
   • Path parameters

2. Use descriptive summaries and descriptions

3. Group related endpoints using tags

4. Keep the documentation up to date with code changes

Troubleshooting

If the documentation is not updating:

1. Check that your annotations are correct
2. Verify that you're using the correct version of swag
3. Make sure you're running swag init from the correct directory
4. Check that the generated files are being included in your build
