How can swagger.json be regenerated?

[phrohdoh]

This project is a great example of boilerplate, so thanks for all your hard work on that!

Forgive my ignorance but I am a bit new to nodejs and typescript so I can not figure out what tooling to use to regenerate the Swagger API manifest (say I make API changes and want them reflected in the doc / UI).

Any hints would be much appreciated!

You have to manually edit them, atleast for now.

Hi @phrohdoh please create a PR and we will have look at it. :-)

[phrohdoh]

@hirsch88 I'm asking how to do this and you're asking me to file a PR doing this? Doesn't really make sense to me. :)

A solution could be using or for efficiency reasons rewriting typescript-rest-swagger and implementing it in the boilerplate to go along with typeorm and routing-controllers, etc.

Would be amazing to not have to write those swagger files again and again.

How about something like tsoa

Hy, i'have done the PR #141 that integrate routing-controllers-openapi in order to solve this problem.

How about something like tsoa

In the PR #141 I chose routing-controllers-openapi because the boilerplate use routing-controllers to create the expressApp and this library use the metadatas created during the factory process. I used also class-validator-jsonschema to create schemas with validators declared with class-validator. In my opinion tsoa would make a breaking not necessary.

#141 ?

Seems like #141 got a bit stalled so I had a go in #175. Any chance of getting it reviewed @hirsch88? Thanks!

[phrohdoh]

#175 appears to have addressed this, so I'm closing the issue.
