A pluggable API specification generator. Currently supports the OpenAPI Specification (f.k.a. the Swagger specification).
Features
Supports the OpenAPI Specification (versions 2 and 3)
Framework-agnostic
Built-in support for marshmallow
Utilities for parsing docstrings
Installation
$ pip install -U apispec
When using the marshmallow plugin, ensure a compatible marshmallow version is used:
$ pip install -U apispec[marshmallow]
Example Application
from apispec import APISpec
from apispec.ext.marshmallow import MarshmallowPlugin
from apispec_webframeworks.flask import FlaskPlugin

# Create an APISpec
spec = APISpec(

version="1.0.0",
openapi_version="3.0.2",
plugins=[FlaskPlugin(), MarshmallowPlugin()],
)
# Optional marshmallow support
class CategorySchema(Schema):
id = fields.Int()
name = fields.Str(required=True)
class PetSchema(Schema):
category = fields.List(fields.Nested(CategorySchema))
name = fields.Str()
# Optional security scheme support
api_key_scheme = {"type": "apiKey", "in": "header", "name": "X-API-Key"}
spec.components.security_scheme("ApiKeyAuth", api_key_scheme)
# Optional Flask support
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("/random")
