A shared OpenAPI abstraction layer for the Tiferet Framework.

Tiferet OpenAPI — A Shared OpenAPI Abstraction Layer for the Tiferet Framework

Introduction

Tiferet OpenAPI provides the shared abstraction layer that both tiferet-flask and tiferet-fast depend on for OpenAPI-style API development. It extracts the common domain objects, service interfaces, domain events, mappers, YAML-backed repository, and context classes that were previously duplicated across both framework adapters.

By unifying these components into a single package, tiferet-openapi eliminates code duplication, ensures behavioral consistency between Flask and FastAPI adapters, and provides a clean foundation for building new framework adapters.

Installation

From PyPI

pip install tiferet-openapi

For Development

git clone https://github.com/greatstrength/tiferet-openapi.git
cd tiferet-openapi
python3.10 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[test]"

Architecture

Tiferet OpenAPI follows the Tiferet framework's layered Domain-Driven Design architecture:

tiferet_openapi/
├── __init__.py          — Version and public exports
├── domain/              — ApiRoute, ApiRouter (DomainObject, Pydantic v2)
├── interfaces/          — OpenApiService (Service ABC)
├── events/              — GetRouters, GetRoute, GetStatusCode (DomainEvent)
├── mappers/             — Aggregates and TransferObjects for YAML round-trip
├── repos/               — OpenApiYamlRepository (YamlLoader-backed OpenApiService)
└── contexts/            — OpenApiContext (AppInterfaceContext), OpenApiRequestContext

Domain Objects

ApiRoute and ApiRouter are read-only Pydantic v2 domain models that represent API routing configuration:

• ApiRoute — An individual route with id, endpoint (format: router_name.route_id), path, methods, and status_code.
• ApiRouter — A named group of routes with an optional URL prefix.

Service Interface

OpenApiService is the abstract contract for API configuration access:

• get_routers() — Retrieve all configured routers.
• get_route(route_id, router_name=None) — Look up a single route.
• get_status_code(error_code) — Map an error code to an HTTP status code.

Domain Events

Three domain events encapsulate the service operations for use in the feature workflow:

• GetRouters — Retrieves all routers via the injected OpenApiService.
• GetRoute — Parses a dotted endpoint string (e.g., calc.add) and retrieves the matching route.
• GetStatusCode — Looks up the HTTP status code for a given error code.

Mappers

Aggregates and TransferObjects bridge YAML configuration and runtime domain objects:

• ApiRouteAggregate, ApiRouterAggregate — Mutable aggregates with route management methods.
• ApiRouteYamlObject, ApiRouterYamlObject — YAML serialization with _ROLES-based role control, map() for aggregate construction, from_model() for reverse mapping.

Repository

OpenApiYamlRepository is the YAML-backed implementation of OpenApiService. It accepts a parameterized root_key (defaults to "openapi") enabling compatibility with multiple YAML formats:

• root_key="openapi" — unified openapi.yml format
• root_key="flask" — legacy flask.yml format
• root_key="fast" — legacy fast.yml format

Contexts

• OpenApiContext(AppInterfaceContext) — Shared API context that receives DomainEvent instances for route and status code lookup. Provides parse_request, handle_error (with HTTP status code resolution), and handle_response (returning (response, status_code) tuples).
• OpenApiRequestContext(RequestContext) — Pydantic-aware request context that serializes BaseModel results via model_dump(), with support for lists, dicts, None, and primitives.

YAML Configuration Format

The repository reads configuration from a YAML file with the following structure:

openapi:  # root_key (can be 'flask', 'fast', or any custom key)
  routers:
    calc:
      prefix: /calc
      routes:
        add:
          path: /add
          methods:
            - POST
          status_code: 200
        subtract:
          path: /subtract
          methods:
            - POST
          status_code: 200
    health:
      routes:
        ping:
          path: /ping
          methods:
            - GET
          status_code: 200
  errors:
    INVALID_INPUT: 400
    DIVISION_BY_ZERO: 422
    NOT_FOUND: 404

Usage

Tiferet OpenAPI is consumed by framework-specific adapters. Here's how the shared components integrate:

In tiferet-flask / tiferet-fast

Framework adapters extend OpenApiContext and use OpenApiYamlRepository as their configuration backend:

# Framework adapter context (e.g., FlaskApiContext)
from tiferet_openapi import OpenApiContext, OpenApiRequestContext

class FlaskApiContext(OpenApiContext):
    # Inherits parse_request, handle_error, handle_response
    # Adds Flask-specific builder logic
    pass

Direct Repository Usage

from tiferet_openapi import OpenApiYamlRepository

# Load configuration
repo = OpenApiYamlRepository(
    openapi_yaml_file='app/configs/openapi.yml',
    root_key='openapi',
)

# Retrieve all routers
routers = repo.get_routers()
for router in routers:
    print(f"{router.name}: {router.prefix}")
    for route in router.routes:
        print(f"  {route.endpoint} -> {route.path} [{', '.join(route.methods)}]")

# Look up a specific route
route = repo.get_route('add', router_name='calc')
print(f"Route: {route.endpoint}, Status: {route.status_code}")

# Map error code to HTTP status
status = repo.get_status_code('INVALID_INPUT')  # Returns 400
status = repo.get_status_code('UNKNOWN')         # Returns 500 (default)

Testing

Run the test suite:

pytest tiferet_openapi/ -v

Tests are co-located in <package>/tests/ directories:

• Domain/mapper tests use direct Pydantic constructors.
• Event tests use DomainEvent.handle() with mocked OpenApiService.
• Repo tests are integration tests using tmp_path with real YAML files.
• Context tests use mock.Mock(spec=DomainEvent) for event dependencies.
