AsyncAPI Generator

Use your AsyncAPI definition to generate literally anything. Markdown documentation, Node.js code, HTML documentation, anything!

⚠️ This package doesn't support AsyncAPI 1.x anymore. We recommend to upgrade to the latest AsyncAPI version using the AsyncAPI converter. If you need to convert documents on the fly, you may use the Node.js or Go converters.

Install

npm install -g asyncapi-generator

Or use all the commands below using Docker by replacing ag in all the commands below with:

docker run --rm -it -v $PWD:/app -w /app asyncapi/generator [COMMAND HERE]

Usage

From the command-line interface (CLI)

  Usage: ag [options] <asyncapi> <template>


  Options:

    -V, --version                  output the version number
    -o, --output <outputDir>       directory where to put the generated files (defaults to current directory) (default: /Users/fmvilas/www/asyncapi-generator)
    -d, --disable-hook <hookName>  disable a specific hook
    -n, --no-overwrite <glob>      glob or path of the file(s) to skip when regenerating
    -p, --param <name=value>       additional param to pass to templates
    -t, --templates <templateDir>  directory where templates are located (defaults to internal templates directory) (default: null)
    -h, --help                     output usage information

Examples

The shortest possible syntax:

ag asyncapi.yaml markdown

Specify where to put the result:

ag -o ./docs asyncapi.yaml markdown

Passing parameters to templates:

ag -o ./docs --param title='Hello from param' asyncapi.yaml markdown

In the template you can use it like this: {{ params.title }}
