CLI script to turn swagger yaml into markdown files. Supports swagger 2.0 format only
The version 2.0 is a breaking change. The project was rewritten in typescript.
Along with addressing multiple issues, it is more strict now with the openapi version.
In case if version 3 is provided, the application will throw an error.
The support of v3 is at the roadmap, although it is possible to overcome this restriction by using --force-version flag: --force-version 2
. It will process v3 documents as it is v2, although it may fail and it may generate the markdown with errors.
As soon as v3 support will be added, the flag will be removed.
see examples folder
npm install -g swagger-markdown
swagger-markdown [-h] [-v] -i [-o] [--skip-info]
Options:
-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
-v, --version Show program's version number and exit.
-i , --input Path to the swagger yaml file
-o , --output Path to the resulting md file
--skip-info Skip the title, description, version etc, whatever is in the info block.
--force-version Set the document version, ignore version provided in the yaml file
npx swagger-markdown -i ./basic-auth.yaml
swagger-markdown -i path/to/swagger/file.yaml
By default it will create the new file within the same directory with the same name as swagger file but with .md extension.
So, if swagger file is placed in project/api-doc/swagger.yaml
the new file will be created as project/api-doc/swagger.md
You can also use it as a npm script in your package.json:
npm i --save-dev swagger-markdown
{
"scripts": {
"md-docs": "swagger-markdown -i path/to/swagger.yaml",
//...
}
}
npm run md-docs
