# Swagger
This page shows you how you can configure Swagger-ui with Ts.ED. Swagger uses the OpenApi to describe a Rest API. Ts.ED operates the existing decorators as well as new decorators to build a spec compliant with Swagger.
# Installation
Run this command to install required dependencies by @tsed/swagger
:
npm install --save @tsed/swagger
Then add the following configuration in your Server:
TIP
The path option for Swagger will be used to expose the documentation:
- OAS2: http://localhost:8000/v2/doc (opens new window)
- OAS3: http://localhost:8000/v3/doc (opens new window)
Ts.ED will print the swagger-ui url in the console.
WARNING
OpenSpec 2 support will be removed in v7.
WARNING
When using helmet, there may be a problem with CSP, to solve this collision, configure the CSP as shown below:
@Configuration({
middlewares: [
helmet({
contentSecurityPolicy: {
directives: {
defaultSrc: [`'self'`],
styleSrc: [`'self'`, `'unsafe-inline'`],
imgSrc: [`'self'`, "data:", "validator.swagger.io"],
scriptSrc: [`'self'`, `https: 'unsafe-inline'`]
}
}
})
]
})
export class Server {}
// If you are not going to use CSP at all, you can use this:
@Configuration({
middlewares: [
helmet({
contentSecurityPolicy: false
})
]
})
export class Server {}

# Swagger options
Some options are available to configure Swagger-ui, Ts.ED and the default spec information.
Key | Example | Description |
---|---|---|
path | /api-doc | The url subpath to access to the documentation. |
specVersion | 2.0 , 3.0.1 | The OpenSpec version. |
fileName | swagger.json | Swagger file name. By default swagger.json. |
doc | hidden-doc | The documentation key used by @Docs decorator to create several swagger documentations. |
viewPath | ${rootDir}/../views/swagger.ejs or false | The path to the ejs template. Set false to disabled swagger-ui. |
cssPath | ${rootDir}/spec/style.css | The path to the CSS file. |
jsPath | ${rootDir}/spec/main.js | The path to the JS file. |
viewPath | ${rootDir}/views/swagger.ejs | The path to the ejs file to create html page. |
showExplorer | true | Display the search field in the navbar. |
spec | {swagger: "2.0"} | The default information spec. |
specPath | ${rootDir}/spec/swagger.base.json | Load the base spec documentation from the specified path. |
outFile | ${rootDir}/spec/swagger.json | Write the swagger.json spec documentation on the specified path. |
hidden | true | Hide the documentation in the dropdown explorer list. |
options | Swagger-UI options | SwaggerUI options. See (https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui/blob/HEAD/docs/usage/docs/configuration.md) |
operationIdFormatter | (name: string, propertyKey: string, path: string) => string | A function to generate the operationId. |
operationIdPattern | %c_%m | A pattern to generate the operationId. Format of operationId field (%c: class name, %m: method name). |
pathPatterns | [] | Include only controllers whose paths match the pattern list provided. |
# Multi documentations
# By decorators
It's also possible to create several swagger documentations with the doc
option:
import {Configuration} from "@tsed/di";
import "@tsed/platform-express";
import "@tsed/swagger"; // import swagger Ts.ED module
@Configuration({
swagger: [
{
path: "/api-docs-v1",
doc: "api-v1"
},
{
path: "/api-docs-v2",
doc: "api-v2"
}
]
})
export class Server {}

Then use @Docs
decorators on your controllers to specify where the controllers should be displayed.
import {Controller} from "@tsed/di";
import {Docs} from "@tsed/swagger";
@Controller("/calendars")
@Docs("api-v2") // display this controllers only for api-docs-v2
export class CalendarCtrlV2 {}
// OR
@Controller("/calendars")
@Docs("api-v2", "api-v1") // display this controllers for api-docs-v2 and api-docs-v1
export class CalendarCtrl {}

# By Path patterns v6.66.0+
You can use the pathPatterns
options to include only controllers whose paths match the pattern list provided.
import {Configuration} from "@tsed/common";
import "@tsed/platform-express";
import "@tsed/swagger"; // import swagger Ts.ED module
@Configuration({
swagger: [
{
path: "/api-admin",
pathPatterns: ["/rest/admin/**"]
},
{
path: "/api-all",
pathPatterns: ["!/rest/admin/**"]
}
]
})
export class Server {}

# Model documentation
One of the feature of Ts.ED is the model definition to serialize or deserialize a JSON Object based on JsonSchema (See model documentation).
A model can be used on a method controller along with @BodyParams or other decorators.
import {Description, Example, Property, Title} from "@tsed/schema";
export class CalendarModel {
@Title("iD")
@Description("Description of calendar model id")
@Example("Description example")
@Property()
public id: string;
@Property()
public name: string;
}

# Endpoint documentation
This example shows you how to use the decorators to generate swagger documentation for an endpoint:
import {BodyParams, QueryParams} from "@tsed/platform-params";
import {Deprecated, Description, Get, Post, Returns, Security, Summary} from "@tsed/schema";
import {Controller} from "@tsed/di";
import {CalendarModel} from "./models/Calendar";
@Controller("/calendars")
export class CalendarCtrl {
@Get("/:id")
@Summary("Summary of this route")
@Description("Return a calendar from the given id")
@Returns(200, CalendarModel)
@Returns(404).Description("Not found")
async getCalendar(
@Description("A calendar Id")
@QueryParams()
id: string
): Promise<CalendarModel> {
return {};
}
@Get("/")
@Description("Return a list of Calendar")
@Returns(200, CalendarModel)
async getCalendars(): Promise<CalendarModel[]> {
return [];
}
@Get("/v0/:id")
@Deprecated()
@Description("Deprecated route, use /rest/calendars/:id instead of.")
@Returns(CalendarModel)
@Returns(404, {description: "Not found"})
async getCalendarDeprecated(@QueryParams("id") id: string): Promise<CalendarModel> {
return {};
}
@Post("/")
@Security("calendar_auth", "write:calendar", "read:calendar")
@Returns(CalendarModel)
async createCalendar(@BodyParams() body: any): Promise<CalendarModel> {
return {};
}
}

# Extra parameters
Sometimes you want to display extra in
parameters like headers
without consuming it in an endpoint.
It's possible describe extra parameters by using the
In
decorator over the method.
import {BodyParams} from "@tsed/platform-params";
import {In, Post, Security} from "@tsed/schema";
import {Controller} from "@tsed/di";
import {CalendarModel} from "./models/Calendar";
@Controller("/calendars")
export class CalendarCtrl {
@Post("/")
@In("authorization").Type(String).Description("Bearer authorization")
@Security("oidc")
async createCalendar(@BodyParams() body: any): Promise<CalendarModel> {
return {};
}
}

# Import Javascript
It is possible to import a Javascript in the Swagger-ui documentation. This script lets you customize the swagger-ui instance.
import {Configuration} from "@tsed/di";
import "@tsed/platform-express";
import "@tsed/swagger"; // import swagger Ts.ED module
@Configuration({
swagger: [
{
path: "/api-docs",
jsPath: "/spec/main.js"
}
]
})
export class Server {}

In your JavaScript file, you can handle Swagger-ui configuration and the instance:
console.log(SwaggerUIBuilder.config); //Swagger-ui config
document.addEventListener("swagger.init", (evt) => {
console.log(SwaggerUIBuilder.ui); //Swagger-ui instance
});

# Decorators
These decorators already add a documentation on Swagger:
In addition, the Ts.ED Swagger plugin gives some decorators to manage documentation:

# Maintainers
