MicroElements.Swashbuckle.FluentValidation
Integrates FluentValidation rules with Swashbuckle to automatically generate accurate OpenAPI/Swagger schemas.
What is MicroElements.Swashbuckle.FluentValidation?
MicroElements.Swashbuckle.FluentValidation is a .NET library that automatically generates OpenAPI (Swagger) documentation from FluentValidation rules. It replaces the need for manual `ComponentModel` attributes by translating validation logic—such as required fields, email formats, or numeric ranges—into accurate API schemas. This ensures developers' Swagger documentation always matches their actual validation constraints.
.NET developers building ASP.NET Core Web APIs or Minimal APIs who use FluentValidation for input validation and Swashbuckle for OpenAPI documentation.
It eliminates duplication between validation logic and API documentation by automatically inferring schema rules from FluentValidation, reducing maintenance overhead and preventing discrepancies. The extensible rule system allows customization for complex validation scenarios.
