Generate nodejs from Swagger spec

So I've documented my whole API with swagger editor, and now I have my .yaml file. I'm really confused how I take that and generate the whole nodejs stuff now so that all those functions are already defined and then I just fill them in with the appropriate code.

Solution

  • Swagger Codegen generates server stubs and client SDKs for a variety of languages and frameworks, including Node.js.

    To generate a Node.js server stub, run codegen with the -l nodejs-server argument.

    Windows example:

    java -jar swagger-codegen-cli-2-2-2.jar generate -i petstore.yaml -l nodejs-server -o .\PetstoreServer

    You get:
