openapi_parameters

openapi_parameters is an an OpenAPI aware parameter parser.

openapi_parameters unpacks HTTP/Rack query / path / header / cookie parameters exactly as described in an OpenAPI definition. It supports style, explode and schema definitions according to OpenAPI 3.1 (or 3.0). The gem is mainly build to be used inside of other OpenAPI tooling like openapi_first.

Learn about parameters in OpenAPI.

Synopsis

Note that OpenAPI supportes parameter definition on path and operation objects. Parameter definitions must use strings as keys.

Unpack query/path/header/cookie parameters from HTTP requests according to their OpenAPI definition

query_parameters = OpenapiParameters::Query.new([{
  'name' => 'ids',
  'required' => true,
  'in' => 'query', # Note that we only pass query parameters here
  'schema' => {
    'type' => 'array',
    'items' => {
      'type' => 'integer'
    }
  }
}])
query_string = env['QUERY_STRING'] # => 'ids=1&ids=2'
query_parameters.unpack(query_string) # => { 'ids' => [1, 2] }

path_parameters = OpenapiParameters::Path.new(parameters)
route_params = env['route.params'] # This depends on the webframework you are using
path_parameters.unpack(route_params) # => { 'ids' => [1, 2, 3] }

header_parameters = OpenapiParameters::Header.new(parameters)
header_parameters.unpack_env(env)

cookie_parameters = OpenapiParameters::Cookie.new(parameters)
cookie_string = env['HTTP_COOKIE'] # => "ids=3"
cookie_parameters.unpack(cookie_string) # => { 'ids' => [3] }

Note that this library does not validate the parameter value against it's JSON Schema.

Inspect parameter definition

parameter = OpenapiParameters::Parameter.new({
  'name' => 'ids',
  'required' => true,
  'in' => 'query', # or 'path', 'header', 'cookie'
  'schema' => {
    'type' => 'array',
    'items' => {
      'type' => 'integer'
    }
  }
})
parameter.name # => 'ids'
parameter.required? # => true
parameter.in # => 'query'
parameter.location # => 'query' (alias for in)
parameter.schema # => { 'type' => 'array', 'items' => { 'type' => 'integer' } }
parameter.type # => 'array'
parameter.deprecated? # => false
parameter.media_type # => nil
parameter.allow_reserved? # => false
# etc.
