swagger-markdown

npm circle ci

CLI script to turn Swagger/OpenAPI specifications into Markdown files. Supports Swagger 2.0 and OpenAPI 3.0.* formats. OpenAPI 3.1.* is not yet supported.

The version 2.0 is a breaking change. The project was rewritten in typescript. Along with addressing multiple issues, it is more strict now with the openapi version. The --force-version flag is now obsolete and will be removed in a future release.

Installation

npm install -g swagger-markdown

Usage

swagger-markdown [-h] [-v] -i [-o] [--skip-info]

Options:
  -h, --help      Show this help message and exit.
  -v, --version   Show program's version number and exit.
  -i , --input    Path to the swagger yaml file
  -o , --output   Path to the resulting md file
  --skip-info     Skip the title, description, version etc, whatever is in the info block.
  --force-version [Deprecated] Set the document version, ignore version provided in the yaml file. Use with caution.

Npx (requires no installation)

npx swagger-markdown -i ./basic-auth.yaml

Example

swagger-markdown -i path/to/swagger/file.yaml

By default it will create the new file within the same directory with the same name as swagger file but with .md extension. So, if swagger file is placed in project/api-doc/swagger.yaml the new file will be created as project/api-doc/swagger.md

You can also use it as a npm script in your package.json:

npm i --save-dev swagger-markdown
{
    "scripts": {
        "md-docs": "swagger-markdown -i path/to/swagger.yaml",
        //...
    }
}
npm run md-docs
