aiohttp-apispec 0.5.2

Build and document REST APIs with aiohttp and apispec

Install

pip install aiohttp-apispec

Quickstart

from aiohttp_apispec import docs, use_kwargs, marshal_with, AiohttpApiSpec
from aiohttp import web
from marshmallow import Schema, fields


class RequestSchema(Schema):
    id = fields.Int()
    name = fields.Str(description='name')
    bool_field = fields.Bool()


class ResponseSchema(Schema):
    msg = fields.Str()
    data = fields.Dict()


@docs(
    tags=['mytag'],
    summary='Test method summary',
    description='Test method description',
)
@use_kwargs(RequestSchema(strict=True))
@marshal_with(ResponseSchema(), 200)
async def index(request):
    return web.json_response({'msg': 'done', 'data': {}})


app = web.Application()
app.router.add_post('/v1/test', index)

# init docs with all parameters, usual for ApiSpec
doc = AiohttpApiSpec(
    app=app, title='My Documentation', version='v1', url='/api/docs/api-docs'
)

# now we can find it on 'http://localhost:8080/api/docs/api-docs'
web.run_app(app)

Adding validation middleware

from aiohttp_apispec import aiohttp_apispec_middleware

...

app.middlewares.append(aiohttp_apispec_middleware)

Now you can access all validated data in route from request['data'] like so:

@docs(
    tags=['mytag'],
    summary='Test method summary',
    description='Test method description',
)
@use_kwargs(RequestSchema(strict=True))
@marshal_with(ResponseSchema(), 200)
async def index(request):
    uid = request['data']['id']
    name = request['data']['name']
    return web.json_response(
        {'msg': 'done', 'data': {'info': f'name - {name}, id - {uid}'}}
    )

Build swagger web client

You can do it easily with aiohttp_swagger library:

from aiohttp_swagger import setup_swagger

...

setup_swagger(
    app=app, swagger_url='/api/doc', swagger_info=app['swagger_dict']
)
# now we can access swagger client on /api/doc url
