NAME
Swagger2 - Swagger RESTful API Documentation
VERSION
0.62
DESCRIPTION
Swagger2 is a module for generating, parsing and transforming swagger API specification. It has support for reading swagger specification in JSON notation and as well YAML format.
Please read http://thorsen.pm/perl/programming/2015/07/05/mojolicious-swagger2.html for an introduction to Swagger and reasons for why you would to use it.
Mojolicious server side code generator
This distribution comes with a Mojolicious plugin, Mojolicious::Plugin::Swagger2, which can set up routes and perform input and output validation.
Mojolicious client side code generator
Swagger2 also comes with a Swagger2::Client generator, which converts the client spec to perl code in memory.
RECOMMENDED MODULES
YAML parser
A YAML parser is required if you want to read/write spec written in the YAML format. Supported modules are YAML::XS, YAML::Syck, YAML and YAML::Tiny.
SYNOPSIS
use Swagger2;
my $swagger = Swagger2->new("/path/to/api-spec.yaml");
# Access the raw specification values
print $swagger->api_spec->get("/swagger");
# Returns the specification as a POD document
print $swagger->pod->to_string;
ATTRIBUTES
api_spec
$pointer = $self->api_spec;
$self = $self->api_spec(Mojo::JSON::Pointer->new({}));
Holds a Mojo::JSON::Pointer object containing your API specification.
base_url
$mojo_url = $self->base_url;
Mojo::URL object that holds the location to the API endpoint. Note: This might also just be a dummy URL to http://example.com/.
specification
DEPRECATED. If you need to change this, then you probably want JSON::Validator instead.
tree
DEPRECATED. Use "api_spec" instead.
ua
$ua = $self->ua;
$self = $self->ua(Mojo::UserAgent->new);
A Mojo::UserAgent used to fetch remote documentation.
url
$mojo_url = $self->url;
Mojo::URL object that holds the location to the documentation file. This can be both a location on disk or an URL to a server. A remote resource will be fetched using Mojo::UserAgent.
METHODS
expand
$swagger = $self->expand;
This method returns a new Swagger2
object, where all the references are resolved.
load
$self = $self->load;
$self = $self->load($url);
Used to load the content from $url
or "url". This method will try to guess the content type (JSON or YAML) by looking at the content of the $url
.
new
$self = Swagger2->new($url);
$self = Swagger2->new(%attributes);
$self = Swagger2->new(\%attributes);
Object constructor.
parse
$self = $self->parse($text);
Used to parse $text
instead of loading data from "url".
The type of input text can be either JSON or YAML. It will default to YAML, but parse the text as JSON if it starts with "{".
pod
$pod_object = $self->pod;
Returns a Swagger2::POD object.
to_string
$json = $self->to_string;
$json = $self->to_string("json");
$yaml = $self->to_string("yaml");
This method can transform this object into Swagger spec.
validate
@errors = $self->validate;
Will validate "api_spec" against "https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-spec/blob/master/versions/2.0.md" in Swagger RESTful API Documentation Specification, and return a list with all the errors found. See also "validate" in JSON::Validator.
