Swagger 2.0 conforming json for servant APIs.

Motivation

Swagger is a project used to describe and document RESTful APIs. Unlike Servant it is language-agnostic and thus is quite popular among developers in different languages. It also exists for a longer time and has more tools to work with.

This package provides means to generate Swagger specification for a Servant API and also to partially test whether API conforms with its specification.

Generated Swagger specification then can be used for many things such as

Usage

Please refer to haddock documentation.

Some examples can be found in example/ directory.

Try it out

All generated swagger specifications can be interactively viewed on Swagger Editor.

Ready-to-use specification can be served as JSON and interactive API documentation can be displayed using Swagger UI.

Many Swagger tools, including server and client code generation for many languages, can be found on Swagger’s Tools and Integrations page.
