About

Currently there are several API specification formats (RAML, Swagger, etc.) which describe the functionality of an API endpoint. This project provides a data model which contains the common informations of an API endpoint. There are parser classes which create such models based on a specification and it is also possible to generate a specification from a model object.

Parser

• RAML (RAML 0.8 specification)
• Annotation (Parses a class which contains annotations)

Generator

• RAML (Generates a RAML 0.8 specification)
• JsonSchema (Generates a JsonSchema which contains all schemas of the specification)
• Swagger (Generates a Swagger 1.2 specification)
• WSDL (Generates a WSDL 1.1 specification)
• XSD (Generates a XSD which contains all schemas of the specification)

Usage

The root model object is called resource which represents a specific API endpoint. The following is a simple showcase of the resource API so you get a basic understanding how it is designed.

<?php

// reads the RAML specification and generates a resource object which was
// defined under the path /foo
$resource = Raml::fromFile('spec.raml', '/foo');

// returns the title
$resource->getTitle();

// returns available path parameters as PSX\Schema\SchemaInterface
$resource->getPathParameters();

// checks whether a specific request method is supported
$resource->hasMethod('POST');

// returns all allowed methods
$resource->getAllowedMethods();

// returns the available query parameters per method as PSX\Schema\SchemaInterface
$resource->getMethod('POST')->getQueryParameters();

// checks whether the method has a request specification
$resource->getMethod('POST')->hasRequest();

// returns the request body specification as PSX\Schema\SchemaInterface
$resource->getMethod('POST')->getRequest();

// checks whether the method has a response with the status code 201
$resource->getMethod('POST')->hasResponse(201);

// returns the response body specification as PSX\Schema\SchemaInterface
$resource->getMethod('POST')->getResponse(201);

// creates a new WSDL generator and generate a WSDL representation of this
// resource
$generator = new Generator\Wsdl('foo', 'http://acme.com/soap', 'http://acme.com/tns');

$wsdl = $generator->generate($resource);

Roadmap

The following list contains generator and parser classes which we want to support in the near future. In case you want to support a different format do not hesitate to open an issue or pull request.

Parser

• Raml 1.0
• Swagger 1.2
• Swagger 2.0

Generator

• Raml 1.0
• Swagger 2.0
• WADL
