Generating AsyncAPI documentation¶
To use, add the following dependencies:
"com.softwaremill.sttp.tapir" %% "tapir-asyncapi-docs" % "0.19.0-M7"
"com.softwaremill.sttp.tapir" %% "tapir-asyncapi-circe-yaml" % "0.19.0-M7"
Tapir contains a case class-based model of the asyncapi data structures in the asyncapi/asyncapi-model
subproject (the
model is independent from all other tapir modules and can be used stand-alone).
An endpoint can be converted to an instance of the model by using the sttp.tapir.docs.asyncapi.AsyncAPIInterpreter
object:
import sttp.capabilities.akka.AkkaStreams
import sttp.tapir._
import sttp.tapir.asyncapi.AsyncAPI
import sttp.tapir.docs.asyncapi.AsyncAPIInterpreter
import sttp.tapir.generic.auto._
import sttp.tapir.json.circe._
import io.circe.generic.auto._
case class Response(msg: String, count: Int)
val echoWS = endpoint.out(
webSocketBody[String, CodecFormat.TextPlain, Response, CodecFormat.Json](AkkaStreams))
val docs: AsyncAPI = AsyncAPIInterpreter().toAsyncAPI(echoWS, "Echo web socket", "1.0")
Such a model can then be refined, by adding details which are not auto-generated. Working with a deeply nested case
class structure such as the AsyncAPI
one can be made easier by using a lens library, e.g. Quicklens.
The documentation is generated in a large part basing on schemas. Schemas can be automatically derived and customised.
Quite often, you’ll need to define the servers, through which the API can be reached. Any servers provided to the
.toAsyncAPI
invocation will be supplemented with security requirements, as specified by the endpoints:
import sttp.tapir.asyncapi.Server
val docsWithServers: AsyncAPI = AsyncAPIInterpreter().toAsyncAPI(
echoWS,
"Echo web socket",
"1.0",
List("production" -> Server("api.example.com", "wss"))
)
Servers can also be later added through methods on the AsyncAPI
object.
Multiple endpoints can be converted to an AsyncAPI
instance by calling the method using a list of endpoints.
The asyncapi case classes can then be serialised, either to JSON or YAML using Circe:
import sttp.tapir.asyncapi.circe.yaml._
println(docs.toYaml)
Options¶
Options can be customised by providing an instance of AsyncAPIDocsOptions
to the interpreter:
subscribeOperationId
: basing on the endpoint’s path and the entire endpoint, determines the id of the subscribe operation. This can be later used by code generators as the name of the method to receive messages from the socket.publishOperationId
: as above, but for publishing (sending messages to the web socket).
Inlined and referenced schemas¶
All named schemas (that is, schemas which have the Schema.name
property defined) will be referenced at point of
use, and their definitions will be part of the components
section. If you’d like a schema to be inlined, instead
of referenced, modify the schema removing the name.
AsyncAPI Specification Extensions¶
AsyncAPI supports adding extensions
as well as OpenAPI. There is docsExtension
method available on parameters and endpoints. There are
requestsDocsExtension
and responsesDocsExtension
methods on websocketBody
. Take a look at
OpenAPI Specification Extensions section of documentation to get a feeling on how to use it.
Exposing AsyncAPI documentation¶
AsyncAPI documentation can be exposed through the AsyncAPI playground.
