class 'array' not found

[ghost]

I have specified an array as a an operation return type for my operation, yet I seem to get this message in the when attempting to deserialize the server response.

Fatal error: Class 'array' not found in ~/Desktop/src/APIClient.php on line 199

However, according to the swagger-spec listed at the link below, array should be a valid type:
https://github.com/wordnik/swagger-spec/blob/master/versions/1.2.md

It seems that swagger-codegen is expecting this to be a user defined type, but according to the specification this is similar to a primitive type (at least that is how it reads).

Hmm, is it perhaps because those primitives are defined in another library? I noticed that this piece of code is defined in APIClient.php

function swagger_autoloader($className) {
    $currentDir = dirname(__FILE__);
    if (file_exists($currentDir . '/' . $className . '.php')) {
        include $currentDir . '/' . $className . '.php';
    } elseif (file_exists($currentDir . '/models/' . $className . '.php')) {
        include $currentDir . '/models/' . $className . '.php';
    }
}
spl_autoload_register('swagger_autoloader');

But that line indicates that the classes should be defined in the current working directory of the generated code files... I am a bit lost on this one.

I've seen something very similar generating Python and Java code.

When I have an 'array' defined in the api-docs as the return type of an operation, with an 'items' : { '$ref' : 'ListEntry' }, my mustache template translates the {{returnType}} as 'Array[ListEntry]' even though the Scala typeMapping is set to translate 'Array' to 'list' in Python or 'List' in Java.

If I remove the 'items' in the api-doc, then I get a warning about a missing model, but the {{returnType}} expands to 'list' and in Python my method returns a generic list of dicts which I can live with, but having a list of ListEntry objects is what is supposed to happen.

hi, i just did a merge which should fix this. Can you pull master and please try again?

I pulled master last night and tried to use the petstore API with the following test.

from petstore import *
apiUrl = 'http://petstore.swagger.wordnik.com:80/api'
apiKey = 'special_key'

client = swagger.ApiClient(apiKey, apiUrl)
pets = PetApi.PetApi(client)
pet = pets.getPetById(petId=3)
print ("Pet %d has status %s" % (pet.id, pet.status))
 # Get the same pet by querying for pets of the same status
petsFound = pets.findPetsByStatus(status = pet.status)
for otherPet in petsFound:
    print("Pet %d has status %s" % (otherPet.id, otherPet.status))

Python 3.4 generated this output:

Pet 3 has status pending
