Wish: Using Swagger to define server API #7

Dear author

Thank you for your excellent generator. To make it perfect, an integration of swagger/open API would be perfect. If I could support by providing the YAML file for the service given, let me know.

Thanks for opening an issue. To be frank, this repo is really outdated. Originally, it was a fork of this repo I made to see if I can integrate angular-material into it. Nowadays, I try to separate my app into microservices, so having the API and the front-end in the same repo doesn't make sense anymore. For the API, I usually use hapijs with hapi-swaggered, so I am able to generate docs through configs. If you supposedly want to build a standalone API, I recommend looking into hapi. :)

What are you trying to achieve? If you're looking to integrate swagger into an express app, there are plenty of npm packages that can aid you into doing that.

Dear Andrej

Thanks for your fast reply. What I really like about this Repo is that you get a working project where front end, back end and especially all the tool configurations just matching

I've started the other way round, first defining an API with swagger, then generating a python/flask based server, then a Angular based front end and now trying to retrofit all the tools like browser and grunt. I learned a lot especially that it doesn't make much sense to write front-end and back-end in two different but similar languages. I'll start from scratch based on the scaffolding from your generator.

Ideally a generator would build a dummy front-end and a dummy back-end based on the api defined in swagger/OpenAPI. I assume that one would need some sort of meta project that guarantees mutually consistent front and back-end projects....

How do you suggest bootstrapping fitting front-end and back-ends?

Sincerely

-as
