swagger-spec-compatibility 1.3.4

About

swagger-spec-compatibility is a Yelp maintained library that provides tools to automatically detect the safety of Swagger/OpenAPI 2.0 specification changes with respect to backwards compatibility.

swagger-spec-compatibility aims to give developers confidence that their spec changes are safe and that clients built with previous versions of the Swagger spec can continue to communicate correctly.

Tool for the identification of backward incompatible changes between two swagger specs.

The tool provides the following level of results:
- WARNING: the Swagger specs are technically compatible but the are likely to break known Swagger implementations
- ERROR: new Swagger spec does introduce a breaking change respect the old implementation

positional arguments:
  {explain,info,run}  help for sub-command
    explain           explain selected rules
    info              Reports tool's information
    run               run backward compatibility detection

optional arguments:
  -h, --help          show this help message and exit

$ swagger_spec_compatibility explain -r REQ-E001 REQ-E002
Rules explanation
[REQ-E001] Added Required Property in Request contract:
    Adding a required property to an object used in requests leads client request to fail if the property is not present.
[REQ-E002] Removed Enum value from Request contract:
    Removing an enum value from a request parameter is backward incompatible as a previously valid request will not be
    valid. This happens because a request containing the removed enum value, valid according to the "old" Swagger spec, is
    not valid according to the new specs.

$ old_spec_path=docs/source/rules/examples/REQ-E001/old.yaml
$ new_spec_path=docs/source/rules/examples/REQ-E001/new.yaml

# Run with all the registered rules
$ swagger_spec_compatibility run ${old_spec_path} ${new_spec_path}
ERROR rules:
    [REQ-E001] Added Required Property in Request contract : #/paths//endpoint/post/parameters/0/schema
$ echo $?

# Run with a subset of registered rules
$ swagger_spec_compatibility -r=MIS-E001 -r=MIS-E002 run ${old_spec_path} ${new_spec_path}
