Static (offline) generation

[blaluc]

Is it possible to generate the client code offline, starting from the api json spec file?

[anttiviljami]

Yes.

// api.js
import OpenAPIClientAxios from 'openapi-client-axios';
const api = new OpenAPIClientAxios({ definition: './api.json' });
export const getClient = () => api.getClient();

// usage
import { getClient } from './api.js';
getClient().then(client => {
  // client.getPets();
});

[anttiviljami]

Or synchronously:

npm install --save openapi-client-axios json-schema-deref-sync

// api.js
import fs from 'fs';
import OpenAPIClientAxios from 'openapi-client-axios';
const api = new OpenAPIClientAxios({ definition: JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('./api.json')) });
export const client = api.initSync();

// usage
import { client } from './api.js';
// client.getPets();

Hello @anttiviljami

Does this also work from a React web app? Currently when I try to use this, it keeps trying to get the definitions from 'http://mybaseurl.com/swagger.json' instead of the static file called './swagger.json' Is this expected?

Thanks!

@paul-hristea you can use:

import definition from "./swagger.json"
