Apistos   Documentation Latest Version Build Status Deps Status

An OpenAPI documentation tool exposing OAS 3.0 models as well as an actix-web wrapper similar to paperclip.

Apistos is composed of these crates:

Check out our example project.

What does Apistos means

Apistos (pronounced /a.p.i.stos/) is a word play between Héphaïstos (Ἥφαιστος, grec god of blacksmiths, carpenters, craftsmen, metallurgy ... which can also be considered by some as the god of technology) and API (pronounced /a.p.i/ in French).

Apistos

Installation

[dependencies]
schemars = "1.0.0-alpha.14"
apistos = "1.0.0-pre-release.9"

Usage example

Wrap your regular actix-web app using apistos types.

Most of these types are drop-in types for actix-web one's.

use std::fmt::Display;
use actix_web::{App, HttpServer, ResponseError};
use actix_web::http::StatusCode;
use actix_web::middleware::Logger;
use actix_web::web::Json;
use apistos::actix::CreatedJson;
use apistos::api_operation;
use apistos::ApiComponent;
use apistos::ApiErrorComponent;
use apistos::app::OpenApiWrapper;
use apistos::spec::Spec;
use apistos::web::{post, resource, scope};
use apistos_models::info::Info;
use core::fmt::Formatter;
use schemars::JsonSchema;
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
use std::error::Error;
use std::net::Ipv4Addr;

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Clone, JsonSchema, ApiComponent)]
pub struct Test {
  pub test: String
}

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug, Clone, ApiErrorComponent)]
#[openapi_error(
  status(code = 403),
  status(code = 404),
  status(code = 405, description = "Invalid input"),
  status(code = 409)
)]
pub enum ErrorResponse {
  MethodNotAllowed(String),
  NotFound(String),
  Conflict(String),
  Unauthorized(String),
}

impl Display for ErrorResponse {
  fn fmt(&self, _f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> std::fmt::Result {
    todo!()
  }
}

impl ResponseError for ErrorResponse {
  fn status_code(&self) -> StatusCode {
    todo!()
  }
}

#[api_operation(
  tag = "pet",
  summary = "Add a new pet to the store",
  description = r###"Add a new pet to the store
    Plop"###,
  error_code = 405
)]
pub(crate) async fn test(
  body: Json<Test>,
) -> Result<CreatedJson<Test>, ErrorResponse> {
  Ok(CreatedJson(body.0))
}

#[actix_web::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), impl Error> {
  HttpServer::new(move || {
    let spec = Spec {
      info: Info {
        title: "An API".to_string(),
        version: "1.0.0".to_string(),
        ..Default::default()
      },
      ..Default::default()
    };

    App::new()
        .document(spec)
        .wrap(Logger::default())
        .service(scope("/test")
            .service(
              resource("")
                  .route(post().to(test))
            )
        )
        .build("/openapi.json")
  })
      .bind((Ipv4Addr::UNSPECIFIED, 8080))?
      .run()
      .await
}

For a complete example, see the sample petstore.

What's next

Alternatives

Crate Key differences
paperclip Paperclip is similar to this project but generates Swagger v2 documentation. Paperclip also provides a tool to generate rust code from a Swagger v2 document.
utoipa Utoipa-actix integration rely on actix web macros for routing definition. At first, we planned on relying on utoipa for OAS types and schema derivation but for now utoipa doesn't support generic struct the way we intended to.
okapi Pretty similar, based on schemars as well (and maintained by the founder of schemars) but not integrated with actix.
