how to create a package in swagger code gen tool in addition to the api and model package

Question

I am learning to use swagger code gen to generate a bunch of csharp files from swagger.json file.

In the CSharpClientCodeGen.class , I noticed there are variables for apiPackage and modelPackage that generates the Api and Model cs files in them. I would like to create a new package similar to apiPackage and modelPackage.

I tried adding in the following code

public class csharpcodegen extends CSharpClientCodeGen
{
protected String newPackage="IO.Swagger.New";

}

And then built the client code, but I dont see the new package folder in there.

Not sure how to do this. It would be great if you can point me to resources on how to do this.

Thanks

If you want to customize the package name, you can pass a config file (e.g. config.json) to the swagger-codegen. Here is a full list of configuration option available for C# code generator:

swagger-codegen|master⚡ ⇒ java -jar modules/swagger-codegen-cli/target/swagger-codegen-cli.jar config-help -l csharp

CONFIG OPTIONS
    packageName
        C# package name (convention: Camel.Case), default: IO.Swagger

    packageVersion
        C# package version, default: 1.0.0

For example, to generate C# SDK, prepare the config file as follows

{
  "packageName": "Com.RestUnited",
}

Then run the following command:

  java -jar modules/swagger-codegen-cli/target/swagger-codegen-cli.jar generate \
  -i /var/tmp/swagger_spec.yaml \
  -l csharp \
  -o /var/tmp/csharp/test/ \
  -c /var/tmp/csharp.json
