Quick Start

rororo relies on valid OpenAPI 3 schema file (both JSON or YAML formats supported).

Example below, illustrates on how to handle operation hello_world from openapi.yaml schema file.

from pathlib import Path

from aiohttp import web
from rororo import (
    openapi_context,
    OperationTableDef,
    setup_openapi,
)


operations = OperationTableDef()


@operations.register
async def hello_world(request: web.Request) -> web.Response:
    with openapi_context(request) as context:
        name = context.parameters.query.get("name", "world")
        email = context.parameters.query.get(
            "email", "world@example.com"
        )
        return web.json_response(
            {"message": f"Hello, {name}!", "email": email}
        )


def create_app(argv: list[str] = None) -> web.Application:
    return setup_openapi(
        web.Application(),
        Path(__file__).parent / "openapi.yaml",
        operations,
        server_url="/api",
    )

Schema First Approach

Unlike other popular Python OpenAPI 3 solutions, such as Django REST Framework, FastAPI, flask-apispec, or aiohttp-apispec rororo requires you to provide valid OpenAPI 3 schema first. This makes rororo similar to connexion, pyramid_openapi3 and other schema first libraries.

Class Based Views

rororo supports class based views as well. Todo-Backend example illustrates how to use class based views for OpenAPI 3 servers.

In snippet below, rororo expects that OpenAPI 3 schema contains operation ID UserView.get,

@operations.register
class UserView(web.View):
    async def get(self) -> web.Response: ...
