# `apis`

## Introduction

If your project contains multiple APIs, the `apis` configuration section allows you to set up different rules and settings for different APIs.

## Options

{% table %}

- Option
- Type
- Description

---

- `{name}@{version}`
- [API object](#api-object)
- **REQUIRED**. Each API needs a name and optionally a version. Supports alphanumeric characters and underscores.

{% /table %}

### API object

{% table %}

- Option
- Type
- Description

---

- root
- string
- **REQUIRED**. Path to the root API description file.

---

- rules
- [Rules object](./rules.md)
- Additional rule configuration for this API.

---

- decorators
- [Decorators object](./decorators.md)
- Additional decorator configuration for this API.

---

- preprocessors
- [Decorators object](./decorators.md)
- Preprocessors run before linting, and follow the same structure as decorators. We recommend the use of decorators over preprocessors in most cases.

{% /table %}

## Examples

The following example shows a simple `redocly.yaml` configuration file with settings for multiple APIs.

```yaml
apis:
orders@v3:
root: orders/openapi.yaml
rules:
tags-alphabetical: error
operation-operationId-unique: error
spec-strict-refs: error
newsletter:
root: newsletter/openapi.yaml
rules:
info-contact: off
operation-summary: off
```

# `decorators`

## Introduction

The `decorators` configuration section defines the transformation steps that are applied to your API description when it is bundled.
Both the [built-in decorators](../../decorators.md) and [decorators from custom plugins](../../custom-plugins/custom-decorators.md) are configured in this section.
The `decorators` block can be used at the root of a configuration file, or inside an [API-specific section](./apis.md).

## Options

{% table %}

- Option
- Type
- Description

---

- {decorator name}
- string _or_ [Decorator object](#decorator-object)
- **REQUIRED**. You can add as many decorators as you wish. The keys must be either built-in decorators (for example `info-description-override`), or a decorator from a plugin (for example `tags-plugin/no-unused-tags`). Set the value to `on` or `off` to enable or disable a decorator, or use a [Decorator object](#decorator-object) to configure additional options for a specific decorator.

{% /table %}

### Decorator object

{% table %}

- Option
- Type
- Description

---

- {additional properties}
- any
- Some decorators support additional configuration, check the documentation for each specific decorator to discover the values that can be used. For example the [`filter-out` decorator](../../decorators/filter-out.md) supports `property` and `value` settings for what to filter.

---

- severity
- string
- Severity level of any problems reported with this decorator. Setting this option is usually only useful for troubleshooting purposes. The value must be one of `error`, `warn`, or `off`, where `off` disables the decorator.

I'm not sure, I didn't know this existed until I tried to write the doc and found it!


{% /table %}

## Examples

This section covers some examples and common use cases.

### Configure built-in decorators

Pick and mix the built-in decorators in your `redocly.yaml` file as you need to.
The following example enables the `remove-unused-components` decorator, and uses `info-override` to update the title:

```yaml
decorators:
remove-unused-components: on
info-override:
title: Better title than before
```

The `info-override` decorator accepts some additional configuration.

### Configure decorators from custom plugins

Redocly also supports [custom plugins](../../custom-plugins/custom-rules.md) for advanced users.
Decorators in custom plugins are also configured in the `decorators` section of the configuration file, using the plugin's module name as a prefix.

The following example shows enabling a decorator called `alphabetical` from a plugin named `tag-sorting`:

```yaml
plugins:
- './tag-sorting.js'

decorators:
tag-sorting/alphabetical: on
```

The example includes adding the plugin, partly to remind you that this is also needed.

# `extends`

## Introduction

The `extends` configuration entry allows your project configuration to extend an existing configuration set.
Multiple values are supported, and can include:

- the name of a [built-in ruleset](../../rules.md#rulesets)
- configuration defined in a [custom plugin](../../custom-plugins/index.md)
- a path or URL to another `redocly.yaml` file

Extends is useful if you use a common ruleset across multiple projects.
Define a ruleset in one location, and each project can `extend` it, with or without modification.

{% admonition type="info" name="Default ruleset: recommended" %}
If there is no `redocly.yaml` configuration file, the [recommended ruleset](../../rules/recommended.md) is used by default.
{% /admonition %}

## Options

The `extends` configuration is an array of strings.

The array is parsed in the order it is defined, so the later entries in the array overwrite the earlier ones.

## Examples

To get started, try the following example to configure your project to be based on the [minimal ruleset](../../rules/minimal.md):

```yaml
extends:
- minimal
```

## Related options

- [apis](./apis.md) configuration options allow setting per-API configuration in `redocly.yaml`.
- [rules](./rules.md) settings define the linting rules that are used.

# `plugins`

## Introduction

Redocly supports [custom plugins](../../custom-plugins/index.md) for extending lint and decorator behavior.
Use plugins when you need to add rules beyond the [built-in](../../rules/built-in-rules.md) and [configurable](../../rules/configurable-rules.md), or decorators beyond the [built-in decorators](../../decorators.md).

## Options

The `plugins` configuration is an array of paths to plugin files, relative to the config file.
You can include as many plugins as you need.

## Examples

A basic example of including two plugins from a directory named `plugins/` is shown in the example below:

```yaml
plugins:
- plugins/my-best-plugin.js
- plugins/another-plugin.js
```

Remember that you need to include plugins in the `plugins` section before you can use the content of the plugin elsewhere in the configuration file.

## Related options

- [apis](./apis.md) configuration options allow setting per-API configuration in `redocly.yaml`.
- [rules](./rules.md) settings define the linting rules that are used.
- [decorators](./decorators.md) offer some transformations for your OpenAPI documents.

## Resources

- The [Redocly CLI cookbook](https://redocly.com/blog/redocly-cli-cookbook/) has many examples of plugins.

# `preprocessors`

## Introduction

Preprocessors are similar to decorators, but they run before linting rather than after.

Refer to the [`decorator` configuration options](./decorators.md) documentation for details; the options available are the same in both the `decorators` and `preprocessor` sections of the configuration file.

## Related options

- [decorators](./decorators.md) offer some transformations for your OpenAPI documents.
- [plugins](./plugins.md) allow code extensions to extend the existing functionality.

## Resources

- [Custom plugins](../../custom-plugins/index.md) offer a way to extend the functionality of Redocly.

# `resolve`

## Introduction

The `resolve` configuration provides options for how URLs in API descriptions are handled.
If a URL is not publicly accessible, use these configuration settings to add the needed details to gain access.

{% admonition type="info" %}
One HTTP header is supported for each URL resolved.
{% /admonition %}

## Options

{% table %}

- Option
- Type
- Description

---

- doNotResolveExamples
- boolean
- When running `lint`, set this option to `true` to avoid resolving `$ref` fields in examples. Resolving `$ref`s in other parts of the API is unaffected.

---

- http
- [HTTP object](#http-object)
- Describe URL patterns and the corresponding headers to use when resolving references that point to them.

{% /table %}

### HTTP object

{% table %}

- Option
- Type
- Description

---

- matches
- string
- **REQUIRED**. The URL pattern to match, for example `https://api.example.com/v2/**` or `https://example.com/*/test.yaml`.

---

- name
- string
- **REQUIRED**. The header name, for example `Authorization`.

---

- value
- string
- The value to send for the header. Only one of `value` or `envVariable` can be used; `envVariable` is recommended for any secrets.

---

- envVariable
- string
- The name of the environment variable that contains the value to send for the header. Only one of `value` or `envVariable` can be used; `envVariable` is recommended for any secrets.

{% /table %}

## Examples

If you have multiple examples to resolve, you can describe multiple entries with patterns to match and headers to include.
The following example shows two patterns, with the names of environment variables that contain the values to use.

```text
resolve:
http:
headers:
- matches: https://api.example.com/v2/**
name: X-API-KEY
envVariable: SECRET_KEY
- matches: https://example.com/*/test.yaml
name: Authorization
envVariable: SECRET_AUTH
```

When the OpenAPI description references a URL that matches these patterns, it is resolved using the additional header specified.
