# Axum OpenAPI 3
This is a library for generating OpenAPI 3.0 specifications from Axum applications.
This library uses [`utoipa`](https://crates.io/crates/utoipa) crate to generate the OpenAPI spec from Rust types.
See the [`utoipa`](https://crates.io/crates/utoipa) crate for more information on how to use it.
## Example
```rust
use std::net::{IpAddr, SocketAddr};
use axum::extract::{Path, Query};
use axum::response::IntoResponse;
use axum::Json;
use axum_openapi3::utoipa; // Needed for ToSchema and IntoParams derive
use axum_openapi3::utoipa::*; // Needed for ToSchema and IntoParams derive
use axum_openapi3::utoipa::openapi::{InfoBuilder, OpenApiBuilder};
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
use axum_openapi3::{
build_openapi, // function for building the openapi spec
endpoint, // macro for defining endpoints
reset_openapi, // function for cleaning the openapi cache (mostly used for testing)
AddRoute, // `add` method for Router to add routes also to the openapi spec
};
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, ToSchema)]
struct Todo {
id: u64,
title: String,
completed: bool,
}
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, IntoParams)]
struct TodoFilter {
completed: bool,
}
#[endpoint(method = "POST", path = "/todos", description = "Insert a new todo")]
async fn insert_todo(_: Json<Todo>) -> Json<Todo> {
unreachable!("")
}
#[endpoint(
method = "PATCH",
path = "/todos/{id}/complete",
description = "Mark a todo as completed"
)]
async fn mark_todo_as_complete(_: Path<u64>, _: Json<u64>) -> Json<Todo> {
unreachable!("")
}
#[endpoint(
method = "GET",
path = "/todos/filter",
description = "Filter todos by completed status"
)]
async fn filter(_: Query<TodoFilter>) -> Json<Vec<Todo>> {
unreachable!("")
}
fn get_router() -> axum::Router {
axum::Router::new()
.add(insert_todo())
.add(mark_todo_as_complete())
.add(filter())
.add(openapi())
}
#[endpoint(method = "GET", path = "/openapi.json", description = "OpenAPI spec")]
async fn openapi() -> impl IntoResponse {
// `build_openapi` caches the openapi spec, so it's not necessary to call it every time
let openapi = build_openapi(|| {
OpenApiBuilder::new().info(InfoBuilder::new().title("My Webserver").version("0.1.0"))
});
Json(openapi)
}
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
reset_openapi(); // clean the openapi cache. Mostly used for testing
let ip: IpAddr = "127.0.0.1".parse().unwrap();
let _addr = SocketAddr::new(ip, 8080);
let _router = get_router();
// De-comment the following lines to start the server
// let listener = tokio::net::TcpListener::bind(addr)
// .await
// .expect("failed to bind address");
// println!("Address binded. Starting web server on http://{}", addr);
// axum::serve(listener, router).await.expect("server failed");
}
```
## Limitations
- No nested routes: `axum` allows nested routes, but this library does not support them: the endpoints must be defined at the root level of the router.
- Only one http server per process: `axum-openapi3` uses a global cache to store the OpenAPI spec, so it's not possible to have more than one http server per process.
- Only `Json` responses: the library only supports `Json` responses. Other response types are not supported. The endpoint will be generated, but with empty response.
