[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/googleapis/gnostic.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/googleapis/gnostic)
# gnostic
This repository contains a Go command line tool which reads
[OpenAPI](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification)
descriptions in JSON or YAML formats and writes
equivalent Protocol Buffer representations.
[Protocol Buffers](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/)
are a language-neutral, platform-neutral extensible mechanism
for serializing structured data.
**gnostic** reads OpenAPI descriptions into
Protocol Buffer representations, reports errors,
resolves internal dependencies, and writes the results
in a binary form that can be used in any language that is
supported by the Protocol Buffer tools.
Code generated by the Protocol Buffer tools includes data
structures with explicit fields for the elements of an OpenAPI
description. This makes it possible for developers to work
with OpenAPI descriptions in type-safe ways. This is
particularly useful in strongly-typed languages like
Go and Swift.
**gnostic** compilation code and the OpenAPI Protocol Buffer
representation are automatically generated from the
[OpenAPI JSON Schema](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/master/schemas/v2.0/schema.json).
Source code for the generator is in the [generator](generator) directory.
## Disclaimer
This is prerelease software and work in progress. Feedback and
contributions are welcome, but we currently make no guarantees of
function or stability.
## Requirements
**gnostic** can be run in any environment that supports [Go](http://golang.org)
and the [Google Protocol Buffer Compiler](https://github.com/google/protobuf).
## Installation
1. Get this package by downloading it with `go get`.
go get github.com/googleapis/gnostic
2. [Optional] Build and run the compiler generator.
This uses the OpenAPI JSON schema to generate a Protocol Buffer language file
that describes the OpenAPI specification and a Go-language file of code that
will read a JSON or YAML OpenAPI representation into the generated protocol
buffers. Pre-generated versions of these files are in the OpenAPIv2 directory.
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/googleapis/gnostic/generator
go build
cd ..
./generator/generator
3. [Optional] Generate protocol buffer support code.
A pre-generated version of this file is checked into the OpenAPIv2 directory.
This step requires a local installation of protoc, the Protocol Buffer Compiler.
You can get protoc [here](https://github.com/google/protobuf).
./COMPILE-PROTOS.sh
4. [Optional] Rebuild **gnostic**. This is only necessary if you've performed steps
2 or 3 above.
go install github.com/googleapis/gnostic
5. Run **gnostic**. This will create a file in the current directory named "petstore.pb" that contains a binary
Protocol Buffer description of a sample API.
gnostic --pb_out=. examples/petstore.json
6. You can also compile files that you specify with a URL. Here's another way to compile the previous
example. This time we're creating "petstore.text", which contains a textual representation of the
Protocol Buffer description. This is mainly for use in testing and debugging.
gnostic --text_out=petstore.text https://raw.githubusercontent.com/googleapis/gnostic/master/examples/petstore.json
7. For a sample application, see apps/report.
go install github.com/googleapis/gnostic/apps/report
report petstore.pb
8. **gnostic** supports plugins. This builds and runs a sample plugin
that reports some basic information about an API. The "-" causes the plugin to
write its output to stdout.
go install github.com/googleapis/gnostic/plugins/go/gnostic_go_sample
gnostic examples/petstore.json --go_sample_out=-
