# openapi-validation-tools [oav] [![Build Status](https://dev.azure.com/azure-public/adx/_apis/build/status/public.Azure.oav)](https://dev.azure.com/azure-public/adx/_build/latest?definitionId=3) [![code style: prettier](https://img.shields.io/badge/code_style-prettier-ff69b4.svg?style=flat-square)](https://github.com/prettier/prettier) Regression: [![Build Status](https://dev.azure.com/azure-sdk/public/_apis/build/status/OAV%20Validate%20Examples%20Regression?branchName=master)](https://dev.azure.com/azure-sdk/public/_build/latest?definitionId=163&branchName=master) [How to fix this](#fixing-regression-builds) Tools for validating OpenAPI (Swagger) files. ## Requirements - **node.js version > 10.x** You can install the latest stable release of node.js from [here](https://nodejs.org/en/download/). For a machine with a linux flavored OS, please follow the node.js installation instructions over [here](https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/) ### How to install the tool ```bash npm install -g oav@latest ``` ### Run API test OAV support run API test against Azure and validate request and response. You could define test scenario file which compose with several swagger example files and then use oav to execute it. For more details about API test, please refer to this [Test scenario documentation](https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs/tree/main/documentation/test-scenario). ![](./documentation/runApiTest.gif) #### Command usage: ```bash $ oav -h Commands: analyze-dependency analyze swagger resource type dependency. analyze-report analyze report. default format: newman json report example-quality Performs example quality validation of x-ms-examples and examples present in the spec. extract-xmsexamples Extracts the x-ms-examples for a given swagger from the .NET session recordings and saves them in a file. generate-collection Generate postman collection file from test scenario. generate-examples [spec-path] Generate swagger examples from real payload records. generate-report [raw-report-path] Generate report from postman report. generate-test-scenario Generate swagger examples from real payload records. generate-static-test-scenario Generate test-scenario from swagger. generate-uml Generates a class diagram of the model definitions in the given swagger spec. generate-wireformat Transforms the x-ms-examples for a given operation into raw request/response format and saves them in a markdown file. resolve-spec Resolves the swagger spec based on the selected options like allOfs, relativePaths, examples etc. run-test-scenario newman runner run test scenario file. [aliases: run] validate-example Performs validation of x-ms-examples and examples present in the spec. validate-spec Performs semantic validation of the spec. validate-traffic Validate traffic payload against the spec. Options: --version Show version number [boolean] -l, --logLevel Set the logging level for console. [choices: "off", "json", "error", "warn", "info", "verbose", "debug", "silly"] [default: "info"] -f, --logFilepath Set the log file path. It must be an absolute filepath. By default the logs will stored in a timestamp based log file at "/home/ruowan/oav_output". -p, --pretty Pretty print -h, --help Show help [boolean] ``` ### What does the tool do? What issues does the tool catch? - Semantic validation Semantic validation enforces correctness on the swagger specific elements. Such as paths and operations. Ensure the element definition meet the [OpenApi 2.0 specification](https://nam06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FOAI%2FOpenAPI-Specification%2Fblob%2Fmaster%2Fversions%2F2.0.md&data=02%7C01%7Craychen%40microsoft.com%7C8455b2c9dfe54f52d98c08d7cf1aad66%7C72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7C1%7C0%7C637205585798284783&sdata=zZrZzk4emkODos7%2BqtMT4RG0ipuFiV7uC0lCWeYdRPE%3D&reserved=0). - Model validation Model validation enforces correctness between example and swagger. It checks whether definitions for request parameters and responses, match an expected input/output payload of the service. Examples of issues: - required properties not sent in requests or responses; - defined types not matching the value provided in the payload; - constraints on properties not met; enumeration values that don’t match the value used by the service.

See [x-ms-examples extension](https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs/issues/648) on how to specify the examples/payloads. Swagger “examples” is also supported and data included there is validated as well. To get the most benefit from this tool, make sure to have the simplest and most complex examples possible as part of x-ms-examples. - Please take a look at the redis-cache swagger spec as an example for providing "x-ms-examples" over [here](https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs/blob/master/arm-redis/2016-04-01/swagger/redis.json#L45). - The examples need to be provided in a separate file in the examples directory under the api-version directory `azure-rest-api-specs/arm-//examples/.json`. You can take a look over [here](https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs/tree/master/arm-redis/2016-04-01/examples) for the structure of examples. - We require you to provide us a minimum (just required properties/parameters of the request/response) and a maximum (full blown) example. Feel free to provide more examples as deemed necessary. - We have provided schemas for examples to be provided in the examples directory. It can be found over [here](https://github.com/Azure/autorest/blob/master/schema/example-schema.json). This will help you with intellisene and validation. - If you are using **vscode** to edit your swaggers in the azure-rest-api-specs repo then everything should work out of the box as the schemas have been added in the `.vscode/settings.json` file over [here](https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs/blob/master/.vscode/settings.json). - If you are using **Visual Studio** then you can use the urls provided in the settings.json file and put them in the drop down list at the top of a json file when the file is opened in VS. ### How does this tool fit with others Swagger specs validation could be split in the following: 1. Schema validation 2. Semantic validation 3. Model definition validation 4. Swagger operations execution (against mocked data or live tests) 5. Human-eye review to complement the above In the context of “azure-rest-api-specs” repo: - #1 is being performed on every PR as part of CI. - #2 and #3 are performed by the tool currently in openapi-validation-tools repo and by AutoRest linter. We’re working towards integrating them into CI for “azure-rest-api-specs” repo. - #4 is not available yet, though we’re starting to work on it. - #5 will be done by the approvers of PRs in “azure-rest-api-specs”, as this won’t be automated. ### Autorest plugin configuration - Please don't edit this section unless you're re-configuring how oav plugs in to AutoRest AutoRest needs the below config to pick this up as a plug-in - see [Autorest extensions](https://github.com/Azure/autorest/blob/master/docs/developer/architecture/AutoRest-extension.md). ```yaml $(model-validator) pipeline: swagger-document/model-validator: input: swagger-document/identity ``` ### Live Validation Mode - A **Live Validation** mode has been added to OAV with the purpose of enabling validation of live traffic. - Usage (here is a sample of a [request-response pair](./test/sampleRequestResponsePair.json)): ```javascript const liveValidatorOptions = { git: { url: "https://github.com/Azure/azure-rest-api-specs.git", shouldClone: true, }, directory: path.resolve(os.homedir(), "cloneRepo"), swaggerPathsPattern: "/specification/**/resource-manager/**/*.json", isPathCaseSensitive: false, shouldModelImplicitDefaultResponse: true, }; const apiValidator = new oav.LiveValidator(liveValidatorOptions); await apiValidator.initialize(); // Note that for a large number of specs this can take some time. // After `initialize()` finishes we are ready to validate const validationResult = apiValidator.validateLiveRequestResponse(requestResponsePair); ``` ### Regression testing Output of the OAV tool has been snapshotted and committed to the repo. The regression test may be run on a sample or all of https://github.com/azure/azure-rest-api-specs. If there are changes to the snapshots the build produces a git patch file as an artifact which may be used to update the snapshots. [Fast Regression (~10mins)](https://dev.azure.com/azure-sdk/public/_build?definitionId=166&_a=completed) is used for merge validation [Slow Regression (~1 hour)](https://dev.azure.com/azure-sdk/public/_build?definitionId=163&_a=completed) is run after merge and should be fixed if it fails #### Fixing regression builds 1. Go to the failed build 2. Download the artifact patch file 3. In the OAV directory run `git apply ` 4. Commit the patched changes and create a pull request 5. Validate that the changes look ok and don't represent a breaking change in OAV 6.
