Swagger UI Action

Generate Swagger UI static html files and configuration to be deployed to GitHub Pages.

This action only works on linux runners.

How to Use

This Action supports four different configuration modes:

spec-file: File path to local OpenAPI or Swagger specification document
spec-url: URL of an OpenAPI or Swagger specification document
swagger-config-file: File path to local swagger configuration file
swagger-config-url: URL of a swagger configuration file

Use spec-file or spec-url when you have an OpenAPI or Swagger specification document and want a basic Swagger UI generated for it. If you want to customize the created Swagger UI, you should use the swagger-config-file or the swagger-config-url configuration modes. For information about the advanced swagger-config see the Swagger UI Configuration documentation.

Note that, if swagger-config-file or swagger-config-url are used, no files specified in the swagger-config.yaml are copied by this action. In this case, it is your responsibility to copy required files such as the OpenAPI document where you need them (output directory).

The output directory of the generated Swagger UI must be set with the output argument of the Action. Optionally the Swagger UI version can be set with the version input, it accepts semver ranges.

Example

This Action only generates the Swagger UI. For example, to deploy it to GitHub Pages another Action is required.

Example steps from a workflow to generate and deploy Swagger UI to GitHub Pages:

      - name: Generate Swagger UI
        uses: Nickwasused/swagger-ui-action@v1
        with:
          output: swagger-ui
          spec-file: openapi.json
      - name: Deploy to GitHub Pages
        uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
        with:
          github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          publish_dir: swagger-ui

For a full example have a look at this workflow file.

Development

The Action runs from GitHub this repo, so the packed dist folder must be added to git.

Release a new version:

$ npm run package
$ git commit -a -m "distribution"
$ npm version major/minor/patch
$ git tag -fa v1 -m "Update v1 tag"
$ git push origin v1 --force
