flask-marshmallow-openapi 0.1.1

Flask + marshmallow + OpenAPI

Overview

Provides OpenAPI documentation generated from code for Flask APIs built around marshmallow schemas.

This hackish and organically grown (TM) package was crated because no other similar projects worked exactly the way I wanted them.

You will probably be better served by some other, properly maintained project with similar purpose:

• flasgger
• flask-openapi3

If you still want to use it, welcome aboard :-) and read on!

Installation

pip install flask-marshmallow-openapi

Example

See example application. Following is incomplete excerpt to demonstrate:

import flask
import marshmallow as ma
from flask_marshmallow_openapi import OpenAPI, OpenAPISettings, open_api


class SchemaOpts(ma.SchemaOpts):
    def __init__(self, meta, *args, **kwargs):
        self.tags = getattr(meta, "tags", [])
        self.url_id_field = getattr(meta, "url_id_field", None)
        super().__init__(meta, *args, **kwargs)


class BookSchema(ma.Schema):
    OPTIONS_CLASS = SchemaOpts

    class Meta:
        url_id_field = "id"
        tags = ["Books"]
        description = "Schema for Book model"

    id = ma.fields.Integer(as_string=True)
    title = ma.fields.String(
        allow_none=False, metadata={"description": "book.title description"}
    )
    publisher = ma.fields.String(allow_none=False)
    isbn = ma.fields.String(allow_none=False)


app = flask.Flask(__name__)


@app.route("/books", methods=["GET"])
@open_api.get(BookSchema, "bookList", many=True)
def books_list():
    return "<p>Hello, World!</p>"


@app.route("/books/<int:book_id>", methods=["GET"])
