Description: Swagger-to
        ==========
        
        Generates server and client code from Swagger (OpenAPI 2.0) specification; written in Python 3.
        
        Supported languages:
        
        ====================    ======  ======
        Language                Client  Server
        ====================    ======  ======
        Go                              x
        Python                  x
        Typescript + Angular    x
        ====================    ======  ======
        
        Due to the lack of time, we can not cover all of the Swagger specification (please see the source code for the details
        or write us a message), but the current generators work well for all of our simple and not-so-simple use cases. We
        believe they can also cover most of the other people's needs as well.
        
        Related Projects
        ================
        We list here some of the related projects and comment why they did not satisfy our requirements.
        
        * https://github.com/go-swagger/go-swagger produces code which looked a bit too clumsy for us.
        * https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen written in Java and hence hard for us to extend and customize.
        * https://grpc.io/ gRPC is great when remote procedure calls are all you need. However, it requires you to use HTTP 2,
          and we found it hard to integrate with widely-used browsers as clients.
        
          Additionally, streaming files was not directly supported (see https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/414).
        * https://github.com/grpc-ecosystem/grpc-gateway provides a JSON gateway to gRPC. We found that it added an additional
          layer of complexity (especially when the number of client/server pairs grow), and preferred to have a simple solution
          with a single code generation tool.
        * https://github.com/twitchtv/twirp a (better?) alternative if you only want to generate remote procedure calls based on
          JSON.
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        * Create a virtual environment:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            python3 -m venv venv3
        
        * Activate it:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            source venv3/bin/activate
        
        * Install swagger_to with pip:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            pip3 install swagger_to
        
        Usage
        =====
        To generate code, you need to invoke one of the ``swagger_to_*.py`` scripts. If the generated code exists, you need to
        specify ``--force`` command-line argument in order to overwrite the existing files.
        
        Go Server
        ---------
        To generate a Go server from a Swagger specification at ``/some/path/swagger.yaml``, invoke:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            swagger_to_go_server.py \
                --swagger_path /some/path/swagger.yaml \
                --outdir /some/go/path/src/your-server-package
        
        The generated code will have the following structure in ``/some/go/path/src/your-server-package``:
        
        ==========================  ========================================================================================
        File                        Description
        ==========================  ========================================================================================
        ``types.go``                Go type definitions
        ``jsonschemas.go``          JSON schemas used to validate the input (using https://github.com/xeipuuv/gojsonschema)
        ``routes.go``               Router specification
        ``handler.go``              Handler interface
        ``handler_impl.sample.go``  Empty implementation of the handler
        ==========================  ========================================================================================
        
        All the types defined in the Swagger are translated to ``types.go``. The routing and validation code around
        the endpoints is generated in ``jsonschemas.go`` and ``routes.go``.
        
        The handler interface is given in ``handler.go``. You need to implement the handler logic yourself. You can use
        ``handler_impl.sample.go`` as a starting point. We usually just copy/paste it to ``handler_impl.go`` and ignore
        ``handler_impl.sample.go`` in our repositories (*e.g.*, by adding it to ``.gitignore``).
        
        In face of Swagger (*i.e.* API) changes, our workflow includes regenerating the code and using a diff tool
        like ``meld`` to sync the "old" ``handler_impl.go`` with the new ``handler_impl.sample.go``.
        
        Python Client
        -------------
        To generate a Python 3 client from a Swagger specification at ``/some/path/swagger.yaml``, invoke:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            swagger_to_py_client.py \
                --swagger_path /some/path/swagger.yaml \
                --outpath /some/py/path/your_client_module.py
        
        The generated client uses ``requests`` library.
        
        Since input checks need to be performed by the server anyhow, we decided not to keep the code generator simple and
        more maintainable by including only the rudimentary type checks on the inputs. Hence all the sophisticated checks
        such as string patterns or casting of a Python integer to int32 are deliberately excluded. Analogously, we also
        do not validate the output coming from the server.
        
        If time ever permits, we would like to include both more fine-grained input and output validation. At the moment,
        we did not confront any problems in the development process.
        
        
        Typescript+Angular Client
        -------------------------
        To generate a Python client from a Swagger specification at ``/some/path/swagger.yaml``, invoke:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            swagger_to_ts_angular5_client.py \
                --swagger_path /some/path/swagger.yaml \
                --outpath /some/typescript/path/your_client.ts
        
        The generated client uses Angular ``http`` library. For the same reasons as for Python client, no checks are performed
        neither on the input nor on the output.
        
        
        Development
        ===========
        
        * Check out the repository.
        
        * In the repository root, create the virtual environment:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            python3 -m venv venv3
        
        * Activate the virtual environment:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            source venv3/bin/activate
        
        * Install the development dependencies:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            pip3 install -e .[dev]
        
        * Run `precommit.py` to execute pre-commit checks locally.
