NSwag: The Swagger API toolchain for .NET, Web API and TypeScript

NuGet Version Build status Build status Gitter Issues StackOverflow ![Donate](https://img.shields.io/badge/donate-via PayPal-green.svg?style=flat)

NSwag is a Swagger 2.0 API (OpenAPI) toolchain for .NET, Web API, TypeScript (jQuery, AngularJS, Angular 2, KnockoutJS, and more) and other platforms, written in C#. The Swagger specification uses JSON and JSON Schema to describe a RESTful web API. The NSwag project provides tools to generate Swagger specifications from existing ASP.NET Web API controllers and client code from these Swagger specifications.

The project combines the functionality of Swashbuckle (Swagger generation) and AutoRest (client generation) in one tool chain. This way a lot of incompatibilites can be avoided and features which are not well described by the Swagger specification or JSON Schema are better supported (e.g. inheritance, enum and reference handling). The NSwag project heavily uses NJsonSchema for .NET for JSON Schema handling and C#/TypeScript class/interface generation.

The project is developed and maintained by Rico Suter and other contributors.

Ways to use the toolchain:

Usage in C#

The following code shows how to read a Swagger specification and generate C# client classes to call the described web services:

var swaggerSettings = new WebApiToSwaggerGeneratorSettings();
var swaggerGenerator = new WebApiToSwaggerGenerator(swaggerSettings);

var service = swaggerGenerator.GenerateForController<PersonsController>();

var clientSettings = new SwaggerToCSharpClientGeneratorSettings 
{
    ClassName = "MyClass",
    Namespace = "MyNamespace"
};
var clientGenerator = new SwaggerToCSharpClientGenerator(service, clientSettings);

var code = clientGenerator.GenerateFile();

Check out the project Wiki for more information.

NSwagStudio

The generators can be used in a comfortable and simple Windows GUI called NSwagStudio:
