NSwag: The Swagger (Open API) toolchain for .NET, Web API and TypeScript

NuGet Version npm Build status Build status MyGet CI Gitter StackOverflow

NSwag is a Swagger 2.0 API (OpenAPI) toolchain for .NET, Web API, ASP.NET Core, TypeScript (jQuery, AngularJS, Angular 2+, Aurelia, KnockoutJS, and more) and other platforms, written in C#. The Swagger specification uses JSON and JSON Schema to describe a RESTful web API. The NSwag project provides tools to generate Swagger specifications from existing ASP.NET Web API controllers and client code from these Swagger specifications.

The project combines the functionality of Swashbuckle (Swagger generation) and AutoRest (client generation) in one toolchain. This way a lot of incompatibilites can be avoided and features which are not well described by the Swagger specification or JSON Schema are better supported (e.g. inheritance, enum and reference handling). The NSwag project heavily uses NJsonSchema for .NET for JSON Schema handling and C#/TypeScript class/interface generation.

The project is developed and maintained by Rico Suter and other contributors.

Tutorials

Swagger Generators:

Code Generators:

  • CSharp Client
    • SwaggerToCSharpClientGenerator
      • Generates C# clients from a Swagger specification
      • Generates POCOs or classes implementing INotifyPropertyChanged supporting DTOs
      • The generated clients can be used with full .NET, .NET Core, Xamarin and .NET Standard 1.4 in general
  • CSharp Controllers (contract first/schema first development)
  • TypeScript Client
    • SwaggerToTypeScriptClientGenerator
      • Generates TypeScript clients from a Swagger specification
      • Available templates/supported libraries:
        • JQuery with Callbacks, JQueryCallbacks
        • JQuery with promises JQueryPromises
        • AngularJS using $http, AngularJS
        • Angular (v2+) using the http service, Angular
        • window.fetch API and ES6 promises, Fetch (use this template in your React/Redux app)
        • Aurelia using the HttpClient from aurelia-fetch-client, Aurelia (based on the Fetch template)

Usage in C#

The following code shows how to read a Swagger specification and generate C# client classes to call the described web services:

var swaggerSettings = new WebApiToSwaggerGeneratorSettings();
var swaggerGenerator = new WebApiToSwaggerGenerator(swaggerSettings);

var document = await swaggerGenerator.GenerateForControllerAsync<PersonsController>();

var clientSettings = new SwaggerToCSharpClientGeneratorSettings 
{
    ClassName = "MyClass",
    CSharpGeneratorSettings = 
    {
        Namespace = "MyNamespace"
    }
};
var clientGenerator = new SwaggerToCSharpClientGenerator(document, clientSettings);

var code = clientGenerator.GenerateFile();

Check out the project Wiki for more information.

NSwagStudio

The generators can be used in a comfortable and simple Windows GUI called NSwagStudio:
