swagger-codegen
A template-driven engine to generate API clients, server stubs, and documentation from OpenAPI/Swagger definitions.
What is swagger-codegen?
Swagger Codegen is an open-source code generation tool that reads OpenAPI (Swagger) specification files and automatically produces API client libraries, server stubs, and API documentation. It solves the problem of manually writing boilerplate code for API integrations and server implementations, ensuring they stay synchronized with the API specification.
API developers, backend engineers, and full-stack teams who need to generate consistent SDKs, server skeletons, or documentation from OpenAPI definitions across multiple programming languages.
Developers choose Swagger Codegen for its extensive language support, template customizability, and ability to keep client and server code in sync with the API specification, drastically reducing development time and errors compared to manual coding.
Overview
swagger-codegen contains a template-driven engine to generate documentation, API clients and server stubs in different languages by parsing your OpenAPI / Swagger definition.
