Kobe
Kobe is a Swagger definition writing tool for PHP, it can be used with framework like Laravel or just native PHP.
Kobe can only generate definitions part of the Swagger Specification, so you must use this with a full-featured library like zircote/swagger-php (or just write those in PHP using array).
Why named "Kobe"? Well, I did a little research, according to the internet, Kobe Bryant has the most swagger, so I think Kobe knows the difinition of Swagger.
Notice
If you use swagger-php version 2.0.11 got schema not found error, see here.
Introduction
You must knew zircote/swagger-php. If you used it before, you may complain these things like me:
- How can I namespacing my definitions ?
- Why writing nested stuff is so painful ?! Why I have to write so many definitions just for nesting ?!!
- writing example value is killing me ..
Don't give up on Swagger, Kobe is here just for the defintions.
But first we have to know how Swagger works.
Swagger is a specification, it can be expressed in many ways, like YAML or JSON, commonly we use JSON in PHP. So whether you are using zircote/swagger-php or not, the final result is just a JSON string.
Therefore, you can write other Swagger stuff using zircote/swagger-php (because it's good for all of that but definitions), and using Kobe to organize your definitions,
Caution
Kobe currently doesn't have any test, although I haven't found any bug, but be careful. I'll writing some tests when I have time, or you can help this !
Installation
Install via Composer:
$ composer require aaronjan/kobeExample
Let's demostrate Kobe with a simple Laravel project.
First we create a folder app/Swagger/Definitions/ to store all our Definitions, and create a BaseDefinition in app/Swagger/BaseDefinition.php like below:
<?php
namespace App\Swagger;
use Kobe\Schemas\Definition;
/**
* Class BaseDefinition
*
* @package App\Swagger
*/
abstract class BaseDefinition extends Definition
{
/**
* @return string
*/
public function getBaseNamespace()
{
return 'App\\Swagger\\Definitions\\';
}
}Kobe generate name for Definition using the class name by default (you can change this behavior), for example the name of your app\Swagger\Definitions\User\StoreResponse will be app.Swagger.Definitions.User.StoreResponse. Obviously writing ref="#/definitions/app.Swagger.Definitions.User.StoreResponse" is too wordy, so you can trim your class by returning a prefix in the getBaseNamespace() method.
All of our Definition will be extending from this BaseDefinition.
OK, here is our first real Definition:
app/Swagger/Definitions/Responses/ApiResponse.php
<?php
namespace App\Swagger\Definitions\Responses;
use App\Swagger\BaseDefinition;
use Kobe\Kobe;
/**
* Class ApiResponse
*
* @package App\Swagger\Definitions\Responses
*/
class ApiResponse extends BaseDefinition
{
/**
* DemoResponse constructor.
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->setProperties([
'code' => Kobe::makeInteger(),
'message' => Kobe::makeString(),
'type' => Kobe::makeString(),
]);
}
}This will eventually be converted to JSON like this (only the definitions part remember ?):
{
"definitions": {
"Responses.ApiResponse": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"code": {
"type": "integer",
"format": "int32"
},
"message": {
"type": "string"
},
"type": {
"type": "string"
},
}
}
}
}You can write as many Definitions as you want, you can use Kobe whatever you want too, because it's just PHP !
For instance, a response that extends the ApiResponse:
app/Swagger/Definitions/Responses/FailureResponse.php
<?php
namespace App\Swagger\Definitions\Responses;
use Kobe\Kobe;
/**
* Class FailureResponse
*
* @package App\Swagger\Definitions\Responses
*/
class FailureResponse extends ApiResponse
{
/**
* FailureResponse constructor.
*/
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->setProperties([
'code' => Kobe::makeInteger()->setExample(400),
'message' => Kobe::makeString()->setExample('an error message'),
'type' => Kobe::makeString()->setExample('error'),
]);
}
}You can see, writing example for property is that easy.
Finally, we have to return the Swagger JSON:
// Here is your controller method that returns the JSON
public function getJSON()
{
// zircote/swagger-php
$swagger = \Swagger\scan([
app_path('Http/Controllers/'),
]);
// Scan the whole directory for any PHP file and parse the class instances to Swagger definitions
$definitions = \Kobe\Kobe::scanPSR4(
app_path('Swagger/Definitions/'),
'App\\Swagger\\Definitions\\'
);
// Merge them together!
$swaggerDefinition = array_merge(
((array) $swagger->jsonSerialize()),
['definitions' => $definitions]
);
return response()->json($swaggerDefinition, 200);
}
But in the real world things are often more complex, let's write some more examples.
app/Swagger/Definitions/User.php
<?php
namespace App\Swagger\Definitions;
use App\Swagger\BaseDefinition;
use Kobe\Kobe;
/**
* Class User
*
* @package App\Swagger\Definitions
*/
class User extends BaseDefinition
{
/**
* User constructor.
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->setProperties([
'id' => Kobe::makeInteger(),
'name' => Kobe::makeString(),
]);
}
}app/Swagger/Definitions/Article.php
<?php
namespace App\Swagger\Definitions;
use App\Swagger\BaseDefinition;
use Kobe\Kobe;
/**
* Class Article
*
* @package App\Swagger\Definitions
*/
class Article extends BaseDefinition
{
/**
* Article constructor.
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->setProperties([
'id' => Kobe::makeInteger(),
// $ref
'author_user_id' => Kobe::referenceByClass(User::class),
'title' => Kobe::makeString(),
'content' => Kobe::makeString(),
]);
}
}app/Swagger/Definitions/ComplexStuff.php
<?php
namespace App\Swagger\Definitions;
use App\Swagger\BaseDefinition;
use Kobe\Kobe;
/**
* Class ComplexStuff
*
* @package App\Swagger\Definitions
*/
class ComplexStuff extends BaseDefinition
{
/**
* ComplexStuff constructor.
*/
public function __construct()
{
$configDefinition = Kobe::makeTempDefinition()
->setProperties([
'boot' => Kobe::makeString()
->setDescription('boot mode: immediate, delay')
->setExample('delay'),
'retry' => Kobe::makeInteger(),
]);
$extendedUserDefinition = Kobe::makeTempDefinitionFrom(User::class)
->setName('temp.ExtendedUser')
->setProperties([
'permissions' => Kobe::makeString()->setExample('CREATE,UPDATE'),
]);
$this->setProperties([
'config' => $configDefinition->getReference(),
'extendedUser' => $extendedUserDefinition->getReference(),
'article' => Kobe::referenceByClass(Article::class),
]);
}
}This is the result:
{
// ...

}Temp Definition automatically gets a random name (or you can set it manually), and will be parsed with all your other Definitions.
