generate openapi api-docs.json from laravel route definitions and annotated .yml file

laravel-swagger

this package tries to assist in generating api-doc.yml files for your laravel based apis.

It does not try to generate the whole api-doc.yml for you and thus does not function as complete abstraction layer for the openapi specification. Instead think of it as route:list that makes sure your open-api.yml files have all routes present and notify you of routes present in the open-api.yml but not in your laravel routes.

  • the controller in which a route resides decides the open-api.yml the route appears in via the @apidoc phpdoc entry
  • multiple controllers can use the same open-api.yml

Install

to install the package simply require it with composer:

composer require svensp/laravel-swagger

Use

Annotate the controllers which should appear in an open-api.yml with

/**
* Class AuthController
* @apidoc path/to/your/open-api.yml
*/
class AuthController {
...

and have them created with

./artin open-api:generate

It is however recommended to publish the config file and use an alias:

./artisan vendor:publish --provider=LaravelSwagger\LaravelSwaggerProvider

The default settings map @ to app_path(), personally I map the name default to resource_path('/open-api.yml')

/**
* Class AuthController
* @apidoc @/resources/open-api.yml
* OR
* @apidoc default
* 
*/
class AuthController {
...

Tags

If you use the same open-api.yml for multiple controllers then you probably want to have the same tags set for all routes of the same controller. You an use the @apitags phpdoc directive to have this done automatically for you:

/**
* Class AuthController
* @apidoc default
* @apitags auth
*
*/
class AuthController {
...

/**
* Class NewsController
* @apidoc default
* @apitags news
*
*/
class NewsController {
...

the list of tags is parsed as comma separated list.

Roadmap

  • (maybe) add parameters defined in FormRequests used by a controller function

Use outside of Laravel

While I have not split the package in its laravel and open-api components it is possible to use it outside of Laravel. Simply instantiate the LaravelSwagger\OpenApi\Updater and pass an array of DefinedRoutes to its update function. Creating DefinedRoutes from your framework of choice is up to you, as is passing

  • templates usually loaded from the config
  • aliases usually loaded from the config
  • callbacks - set in the laravel command to echo having foud a controller without @apidoc directive or routes in the open-api.yml which are no longer present in your DefinedRoutes
