Verify an nbsinfra API implementation

NbSAPI Verification Tool

nbsapi_verify is a standalone tool designed to verify that your API implementation conforms to the https://nbsapi.org OpenAPI specification, currently at Version 1.0.

Installation and Usage

Installation (temporary)

Using pipx

pipx nbsapi_verify --help

Using uvx

uvx nbsapi_verify --help

Installation (permanent, on $PATH)

If you would prefer the tool to be installed on your PATH you can run:

pipx install nbsapi_verify or uv tool install nbsapi_verify. You can then run nbsapi_verify without prefixes.

Usage

nbsapi_verify requires a small amount of configuration:

1. First, generate a verification config. This requires you to specify:
   • the host the API is running on
   • a valid username
   • the password for that username
   • the ID of that user
   • a path for the verification config to be stored (optional: it defaults to the current working directory)
   • the test type to be run: all, auth, user: the auth tests will exercise the write API functions, while the user tests will exercise the read API functions (defaults to all).

In order to test your API while locally developing, that command might look like:

nbsinfra_verify --generate \
    --host http://localhost:8000 \
    --test-type all
    --username testuser \
    --password testpass \
    --testid 1 \
    --config-dir ~

If the command completes sucessfully, you can run the verification tool:

nbsinfra_verify --config-dir ~

When all tests pass, your API implementation is conformant to the NbsAPI specification!
