Among other activities, I design and implement RESTful APIs. I use the VSCode, the Swagger Editor, the Swagger UI and the Swagger Codegen, or a combination, as needed. I also use Docker for containerisation as much as possible because I dislike burdening my host machine with all manner of software and the resulting need to manage versions, version conflicts, etc..
The intent of the document is to provide a reader with the means to create a self-contained Docker container for generating and running back-end stubs based on an openapi.yaml specification for API-First development based on the Docker Image at https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/mwczapski/swagger_codegen.
The container will have the means to:
- Use the Swagger Codegen to generate and run NodeJS stubs (and Java8 stubs, and Bash stubs) to facilitate API testing
- Convert YAML specification documents to JSON and the vice versa
Please see https://github.com/mwczapski/Swagger_Codegen_3_Docker_Container for package artefacts.
