Developing applications with Swagger documents
The Swagger document that is generated by the z/OS® Connect API toolkit can be examined and exposed in various
ways.
zosConnect-2.0 Applies to zosConnect-2.0.
A range of third-party tools are available for you to use with Swagger documents.
- Swagger UI
- With Swagger UI, you can visualize and test a REST API that is defined with Swagger from
any web browser. The built-in testing functions let you graphically explore the APIs, test the APIs,
and inspect the results. For more information, see
GitHub: Swagger UI.
- Swagger Codegen
- With Swagger Codegen, you can generate a Software Development Kit (SDK) in various
languages, including Java™, Objective-C, PHP, and Python, from
a Swagger document for a REST API. You can use the resulting SDK to test the API in real time with a
generated sample server implementation before you fully implement the API. For more information, see
GitHub: Swagger Code Generator.
The
editor.swagger.io site, for example,
provides Swagger Editor, Swagger UI, and Swagger Codegen.
