express-validation-swagger

express-validation-swagger generates a V1 swagger enabled client.

express-validation-swagger optionally uses express-validation to define the rules around API parameters (api payload). express-validation can be configured to validate those rules.

install

install express-validation-swagger

npm install express-validation-swagger

install express-validation

In order to validate your routes and define the parameters and payload for your API, install express-validation. This is optional, and only required if you would like to validate your swagger/express api.

npm install express-validation

install swagger-ui

You will need to install the swagger client; which contains the html pages that support a swagger api swagger-ui

npm install swagger-ui

setup

var swagger = require('express-validation-swagger');

swagger(app, {
  title : 'swagger api', 
  statics : '/test/public/swagger/',  
  resources : '/test/swagger/', 
  applicationUrl : 'http://127.0.0.1:3000',
  version : '0.1.5',
  routes : [
    { 
      route : 'user', 
      method : 'GET', 
      path: '/user', 
      validation : validation.user.get, 
      options : {
        responseMessages : [
          {code: 500, message: "Internal server error"},
          {code: 400, message: "Bad request" },
          {code: 404, message: "Not found" }
        ],
        description : 'get a user by user id', 
        consumes : ["application/json"],
        produces : ["application/json"]  
      }
    },
    { route : 'user', method : 'POST',   path: '/user', validation : validation.user.post },
    { route : 'user', method : 'DELETE', path: '/user', validation : validation.user.del },
    { route : 'user', method : 'PUT',    path: '/user', validation : validation.user.put }
  ]
});

add swagger to your express application

  1. title is the name given to th swagger web site
  2. statics is the location of the swagger-ui client files
  3. resources is the location of your generated swagger resource files
  4. applicationUrl is the url of your application, this is inserted into the swagger client
  5. version api version number
  6. routes contains an array of routes

route definition

  1. route name of the verb group of routes
  2. method 'GET|PUT|POST|DELETE',
  3. path path to the api endpoint
  4. validation : optional - validation block using express-validation, see below on how to set these up.

route options

You may also override the following route options:

  1. responseMessages list of error messages the endpoint can return
  2. description of the endpoint
  3. consumes what formats the endpoint consumes
  4. produces what formats the endpoint produces

swagger-ui template changes

In order to specify where to host swagger amend the swagger index.html file, the url element should equal {{applicationUrl}}.

$(function () {
  window.swaggerUi = new SwaggerUi({
  url: "{{applicationUrl}}",
  dom_id: "swagger-ui-container",
  supportedSubmitMethods: ['get', 'post', 'put', 'delete'],
  onComplete: function(swaggerApi, swaggerUi){
    if(console) {
      console.log("Loaded SwaggerUI")
    }
    $('pre code').each(function(i, e) {hljs.highlightBlock(e)});
  },
  onFailure: function(data) {
    if(console) {
      console.log("Unable to Load SwaggerUI");
      console.log(data);
    }
  },
  docExpansion: "none"
});

add express-validation rules

Simply define a collection of rules; like so; more info here: express-validation

var validation = { 
  user : { 
    get : { 
      headers: { userid : Joi.string().required().regex(/^[0-9a-fA-F]{24}$/) }
    },
    post : { 
      headers: { userid : Joi.string().required().regex(/^[0-9a-fA-F]{24}$/) }
      , body: { username : Joi.string().required() }
    },
    del : { 
      headers: { userid : Joi.string().required().regex(/^[0-9a-fA-F]{24}$/) }
    },
    put : { 
      headers: { userid : Joi.string().required().regex(/^[0-9a-fA-F]{24}$/) }
    }
  }
};

complete example

Here is a full listing; we also include handlebars so that we can set the applicationUrl in our test/public/swagger/index.html file. The source code contains a working example.

Simply run:

npm install
node test/app.js

swagger will be hosted here: http://127.0.0.1:3000/swagger

var express = require('express')
  , cons = require('consolidate')
  , http = require('http')
  , bodyParser = require('body-parser')
  , swagger = require('../lib/swagger/main')
  , validate = require('express-validation')
  , Joi = require('joi')
  , app = express();

app.engine('html', cons.handlebars);
app.set('view engine', 'html');
app.set('views', 'public');
app.use(bodyParser.json())

var validation = { 
  user : { 
    get : { 
      headers: { userid : Joi.string().required().regex(/^[0-9a-fA-F]{24}$/) }
    },
    post : { 
      headers: { userid : Joi.string().required().regex(/^[0-9a-fA-F]{24}$/) }, 
      body: { username : Joi.string().required() }
    },
    del : { 
      headers: { userid : Joi.string().required().regex(/^[0-9a-fA-F]{24}$/) }
    },
    put : { 
      headers: { userid : Joi.string().required().regex(/^[0-9a-fA-F]{24}$/) }
    }
  }
};

var services = {
  user : {
    get : function (req, res, next) {
      var user = { "userId" : "530d1d22be018c1121025be1", "name" : "airasoul" };
      res.status(200).json(user)

http.createServer(app).listen(3000);
module.exports = app;
