Incorporating Swagger Documentation with TypeScript Decorators in Node.js Project using MongoDB

[Prasundas99]

Issue Description:

I encountered challenges while attempting to integrate Swagger documentation into my Node.js project written in TypeScript. The project utilizes TypeScript decorators and interacts with a MongoDB database. The goal was to add Swagger documentation that accurately reflects the API endpoints and data models, providing an automated and comprehensive API reference.

Steps to Reproduce:

• Set up a Node.js project written in TypeScript.
• Utilize TypeScript decorators to define and annotate the API endpoints and data models.
• Integrate Swagger documentation to automatically generate API documentation.
• Ensure the Swagger documentation captures the endpoints, data models, request/response types, and other relevant details.
• Verify that the generated Swagger documentation accurately represents the API.

Expected Behavior:

The Swagger documentation tool should seamlessly integrate with the TypeScript decorators in the Node.js project and automatically generate comprehensive API documentation in YAML or JSON format. The generated documentation should include accurate descriptions of the endpoints, request/response types, and other relevant information.

Actual Behavior:

Integrating Swagger documentation with the TypeScript decorators in the Node.js project does not produce the expected results. The Swagger tool fails to generate comprehensive API documentation or encounters compatibility issues with TypeScript decorators and MongoDB integration.

Possible Solutions:

• Ensure that the Swagger tool is compatible with TypeScript decorators and supports automatic generation of API documentation. Review the project's documentation or tutorials for specific configuration details and best practices.
• Verify that the TypeScript decorators accurately annotate the API endpoints, data models, and request/response types. Ensure that the decorators conform to the expected format for the Swagger tool to properly interpret and generate documentation.
