SoCreate/MMLib.SwaggerForOcelot

This repo contains swagger extension for ocelot.

MMLib.SwaggerForOcelot

SwaggerForOcelot combines two amazing projects Swashbuckle.AspNetCore and Ocelot. Allows you to view and use swagger documentation for downstream services directly through the Ocelot project.

Direct via http://ocelotprojecturl:port/swagger provides documentation for downstream services configured in ocelot.json. Additionally, the addresses are modified to match the UpstreamPathTemplate from the configuration.

Get Started

1. Configure SwaggerGen in your downstream services.

   Follow the SwashbuckleAspNetCore documentation.

2. Install Nuget package into yout ASP.NET Core Ocelot project.

   dotnet add package MMLib.SwaggerForOcelot

3. Configure SwaggerForOcelot in ocelot.json.

>`SwaggerEndPoint` is configuration for downstream service swagger generator endpoint.
Property `Key` is used to pair with the ReRoute configuration. `Name` is displayed in the combobox. `Url` is downstream service swagger generator endpoint.

4. In the ConfigureServices method of Startup.cs, register the SwaggerForOcelot generator.

   services.AddSwaggerForOcelot(Configuration);

5. In Configure method, insert the SwaggerForOcelot middleware to expose interactive documentation.

          app.UseSwaggerForOcelotUI(Configuration, opt => {
                opt.EndPointBasePath = "/swagger/docs";
            })

6. Show your microservices interactive documentation.

Virtual directory

If you have a downstream service hosted in the virtual directory, you probably have a DownstreamPathTemplate starting with the name of this virtual directory /virtualdirectory/api/{everything}. In order to properly replace the paths, it is necessary to set the property route "Virtualdirectory":"/virtualdirectory".

Example:

 {
  "DownstreamPathTemplate": "/project/api/{everything}",
  "DownstreamScheme": "http",
  "DownstreamHostAndPorts": [
      {
      "Host": "localhost",
      "Port": 5100
      }
  ],
  "UpstreamPathTemplate": "/api/project/{everything}",
  "UpstreamHttpMethod": [ "Get" ],
  "SwaggerKey": "project",
  "VirtualDirectory":"/project"
}

ToDo:

• Design.
• Create demo project.
• Add swagger endpoints into SwagerUI combobox.
• Create extension for adding middleware into pipeline.
• Create SwaggerForOcelotMiddleware and replace downstream path.
• Add capability for confiuragtion SwaggerUI and configure EndpointBasePath.
• Unit tests
• Complex Ocelot configuration.
  • Add Petstore swagger Example.
  • Group more reroutes with same SwaggerKey.
  • Filter UpstreamHttpMethod.
  • Query parameters.
  • Aggregates.
• Documentations
• Continuous delivery
• Custom Index.html.
