https://github.com/kogosoftwarellc/open-api/tree/master/packages/express-openapi-response-validation
Note This repository has moved toExpress middleware for openapi response validation.
Provides a .validateResponse
method to express response objects. If the method
returns a value, it will be a validation error with status: 500
, a message
, and
an optional array of errors
.
Highlights
- Performant.
- Extensively tested.
- Small footprint.
- Leverages jsonschema.
- Currently supports openapi 2.0 (a.k.a. swagger 2.0) responses objects.
- Supports
$ref
in response schemas i.e.#/definitions/SomeType
.
Example
See ./test/data-driven/*.js
for more examples.
var app = require('express')();
var validateResponseMiddleware = require('express-openapi-response-validation')({
responses: {
200: {
description: 'We found what you were looking for.',
schema: {
$ref: '#/definitions/ResourceResponse'
}
},
default: {
description: 'Something happened...',
schema: {
$ref: '#/definitions/SomeErrorResponse'
}
}
},
definitions: {
ResourceResponse: {
type: 'object',
properties: {
id: {
type: 'integer'
},
name: {
type: 'string'
}
},
required: ['id', 'name']
},
SomeErrorResponse: {
type: 'object',
properties: {
errorCode: {
type: 'string'
},
message: {
type: 'string'
}
}
}
}
});
app.get('/something', validateResponseMiddleware, function(req, res, next) {
var someResource = {};
var validationError = res.validateResponse(200, someResource);
/*
Validation errors look like this (except for objects in the errors array which
may be overridden with errorTransformer):
{
status: 500,
message: 'The response was not valid.',
errors: [
{
path: 'foo',
errorCode: 'type.openapi.responseValidation',
message: 'foo is not of a type(s) string'
}
]
}
*/
if (validationError) {
return next(validationError);
} else {
res.status(200, someResource);
}
});
