Compatibility Tables
This page aims to document which parts of the openapi 3.1.0 specification is supported. It may not be totally complete / accurate, but it should be broadly correct and give you an understanding of what does / doesnβt work.
If something you need isnβt supported yet, please raise a Github issue detailing your use-case, and we can work together to get support added / extended.
We will also accept pull requests where implemented functionality follows the OpenAPI specification, and the output code is of a high quality in terms of developer experience and robustness. See CONTRIBUTING.md to get started
tldr;
Most common functionality used by JSON based APIs should work.
- Great support for
paths
usingapplication/json
request / response bodies - Comprehensive support for most
schema
properties, including json validation stuff likeminLength
, but only forjson
content types. Notable exceptions: readonly
is currently implemented incorrectlydiscriminator
is ignored, butunion
/intersection
types will be generated based onanyOf
/allOf
so this isnβt often an issue in practice- No support for security schemes, youβll need to fudge these as header parameters, or implement out-of-band for the specification for now.
- No support for
webhooks
/callbacks
yet

Sub-objects
Reference Object
Reference objects are supported to be used in place of the actual object definition anywhere in the documents. They can also cross files (and maybe urls - needs testing).
Itβs recommended to use $ref
objects as much as possible. It both promotes re-use, and also allows control
over the naming of the type / schema in the generated code.
Example:
requestBody:
required: true
content:
application/json:
schema:
$ref: "#/components/schemas/ExampleSchema"
Attribute | Supported | Notes |
---|---|---|
$ref | β | $ref support is robust, and works correctly across multiple input files. |

Server Object
Used by the client SDKs to generate builders for basePath
βs and override parameters.
See servers object guide for detailed explanation of how this is handled.
Attribute | Supported | Notes |
---|---|---|

variables | β |
Components Object
Technically you can define any βcomponentsβ you like, and $ref
s to them will work, regardless
of if they appear in the official specification.
The table indicates what will actually typically be used for anything right now.

everything should just work as youβd guess/expect.

Schema Object
The majority of attributes that can be specified by schema
objects are supported, and accurately match the underlying
openapi specification / json schema validation specifications.
Most notable exception is readOnly
/ writeOnly
which are currently implemented incorrectly, planned to be addressed
as a breaking change prior to v1.
