## Releases
2018-03-21 21:30:18 +03:00
**Important:** all the 2.x releases are deployed to npm and can be used via jsdeliver:
- particular release, e.g. `v2.0.0-alpha.15`: https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/redoc@2.0.0-alpha.17/bundles/redoc.standalone.js
- `next` release: https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/redoc@next/bundles/redoc.standalone.js
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
Additionally, all the 1.x releases are hosted on our GitHub Pages-based **CDN**:
2016-08-30 21:29:22 +03:00
- particular release, e.g. `v1.2.0`: https://rebilly.github.io/ReDoc/releases/v1.2.0/redoc.min.js
- `v1.x.x` release: https://rebilly.github.io/ReDoc/releases/v1.x.x/redoc.min.js
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
- `latest` release: https://rebilly.github.io/ReDoc/releases/latest/redoc.min.js - it will point to latest 1.x.x release since 2.x releases are not hosted on this CDN but on unpkg.
2016-07-28 19:58:04 +03:00

That's all folks!
2016-01-25 00:15:50 +03:00
**IMPORTANT NOTE:** if you work with untrusted user spec, use `untrusted-spec` [option](#redoc-options-object) to prevent XSS security risks.
2016-07-28 19:58:04 +03:00
### 1. Install ReDoc (skip this step for CDN)

2016-07-28 21:36:43 +03:00
### 4. Enjoy :smile:
2016-01-25 00:15:50 +03:00
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
## Usage as a React component
Install peer dependencies required by ReDoc if you don't have them installed already:
npm i react react-dom mobx@^4.2.0 styled-components
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
Import `RedocStandalone` component from 'redoc' module:
```js
import { RedocStandalone } from 'redoc';
```
and use it somewhere in your component:
```js
<RedocStandalone specUrl="url/to/your/spec"/>
```
or
```js
<RedocStandalone spec={/* spec as an object */}/>
```
Also you can pass options:
```js
<RedocStandalone
2019-01-10 11:03:41 +03:00
specUrl="http://rebilly.github.io/RebillyAPI/openapi.json"
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
options={{
nativeScrollbars: true,
theme: { colors: { main: '#dd5522' } },
}}
/>
```
Here are detailed [options docs](#redoc-options-object).
You can also specify `onLoaded` callback which will be called each time Redoc has been fully rendered or when error occurs (with an error as the first argument). *NOTE*: It may be called multiply times if you change component properties
```js
<RedocStandalone
2019-01-10 11:03:41 +03:00
specUrl="http://rebilly.github.io/RebillyAPI/openapi.json"
onLoaded={error => {
if (!error) {
console.log('Yay!');
}
}}
/>
```
## The Docker way
ReDoc is available as pre-built Docker image in official [Docker Hub repository](https://hub.docker.com/r/redocly/redoc/). You may simply pull & run it:
docker pull redocly/redoc
docker run -p 8080:80 redocly/redoc
Also you may rewrite some predefined environment variables defined in [Dockerfile](./config/docker/Dockerfile). By default ReDoc starts with demo Petstore spec located at `http://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json`, but you may change this URL using environment variable `SPEC_URL`:
docker run -p 8080:80 -e SPEC_URL=https://api.example.com/openapi.json redocly/redoc
2018-03-15 21:56:11 +03:00
## ReDoc CLI
[See here](https://github.com/Rebilly/ReDoc/blob/master/cli/README.md)
2018-03-15 21:56:11 +03:00
2016-01-25 00:15:50 +03:00
## Configuration
2016-10-31 13:32:17 +03:00
### Security Definition location
You can inject Security Definitions widget into any place of your specification `description`. Check out details [here](docs/security-definitions-injection.md).
2016-07-28 21:36:43 +03:00
### Swagger vendor extensions
ReDoc makes use of the following [vendor extensions](https://swagger.io/specification/#specificationExtensions):
2016-02-01 20:23:13 +03:00
* [`x-logo`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-logo) - is used to specify API logo
* [`x-traitTag`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-traitTag) - useful for handling out common things like Pagination, Rate-Limits, etc
* [`x-code-samples`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-code-samples) - specify operation code samples
* [`x-examples`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-examples) - specify JSON example for requests
2016-08-31 22:45:34 +03:00
* [`x-nullable`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#nullable) - mark schema param as a nullable
2016-12-11 23:57:22 +03:00
* [`x-displayName`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-displayname) - specify human-friendly names for the menu categories
2016-12-26 00:47:33 +03:00
* [`x-tagGroups`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-tagGroups) - group tags by categories in the side menu
2017-02-26 00:44:19 +03:00
* [`x-servers`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-servers) - ability to specify different servers for API (backported from OpenAPI 3.0)
* [`x-ignoredHeaderParameters`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-ignoredHeaderParameters) - ability to specify header parameter names to ignore
2016-02-01 20:23:13 +03:00
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
### `<redoc>` options object
You can use all of the following options with standalone version on <redoc> tag by kebab-casing them, e.g. `scrollYOffset` becomes `scroll-y-offset` and `expandResponses` becomes `expand-responses`.
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
* `untrustedSpec` - if set, the spec is considered untrusted and all HTML/markdown is sanitized to prevent XSS. **Disabled by default** for performance reasons. **Enable this option if you work with untrusted user data!**
* `scrollYOffset` - If set, specifies a vertical scroll-offset. This is often useful when there are fixed positioned elements at the top of the page, such as navbars, headers etc;
`scrollYOffset` can be specified in various ways:
2016-07-28 21:54:58 +03:00
* **number**: A fixed number of pixels to be used as offset;
* **selector**: selector of the element to be used for specifying the offset. The distance from the top of the page to the element's bottom will be used as offset;
* **function**: A getter function. Must return a number representing the offset (in pixels);
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
* `suppressWarnings` - if set, warnings are not rendered at the top of documentation (they still are logged to the console).
* `lazyRendering` - _Not implemented yet_ ~~if set, enables lazy rendering mode in ReDoc. This mode is useful for APIs with big number of operations (e.g. > 50). In this mode ReDoc shows initial screen ASAP and then renders the rest operations asynchronously while showing progress bar on the top. Check out the [demo](\\rebilly.github.io/ReDoc) for the example.~~
* `hideHostname` - if set, the protocol and hostname is not shown in the operation definition.
* `expandResponses` - specify which responses to expand by default by response codes. Values should be passed as comma-separated list without spaces e.g. `expandResponses="200,201"`. Special value `"all"` expands all responses by default. Be careful: this option can slow-down documentation rendering time.
* `requiredPropsFirst` - show required properties first ordered in the same order as in `required` array.
* `sortPropsAlphabetically` - sort properties alphabetically
2018-10-03 11:02:13 +03:00
* `showExtensions` - show vendor extensions ("x-" fields). Extensions used by ReDoc are ignored. Can be boolean or an array of `string` with names of extensions to display
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
* `noAutoAuth` - do not inject Authentication section automatically
* `pathInMiddlePanel` - show path link and HTTP verb in the middle panel instead of the right one
* `hideLoading` - do not show loading animation. Useful for small docs
* `nativeScrollbars` - use native scrollbar for sidemenu instead of perfect-scroll (scrolling performance optimization for big specs)
2018-03-21 18:32:28 +03:00
* `hideDownloadButton` - do not show "Download" spec button. **THIS DOESN'T MAKE YOUR SPEC PRIVATE**, it just hides the button.
2018-07-17 11:07:34 +03:00
* `disableSearch` - disable search indexing and search box
* `onlyRequiredInSamples` - shows only required fields in request samples.
* `theme` - ReDoc theme. Not documented yet. For details check source code: [theme.ts](https://github.com/Rebilly/ReDoc/blob/master/src/theme.ts)
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
## Advanced usage of standalone version
2016-01-25 00:15:50 +03:00
Instead of adding `spec-url` attribute to the `<redoc>` element you can initialize ReDoc via globally exposed `Redoc` object:
```js
Redoc.init(specOrSpecUrl, options, element, callback?)
2016-01-25 00:15:50 +03:00
```
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
- `specOrSpecUrl` is either JSON object with specification or an URL to the spec in `JSON` or `YAML` format
- `options` [options object](#redoc-options-object)
- `element` DOM element to put ReDoc into
- `callback` (optional) - callback to be called after Redoc has been fully rendered. It is also called also on errors with error as the first argument
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
2016-01-25 00:15:50 +03:00
```js
Redoc.init('http://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json', {
scrollYOffset: 50
2017-11-23 12:57:07 +03:00
}, document.getElementById('redoc-container'))
2016-01-25 00:15:50 +03:00
```
2016-07-29 18:20:38 +03:00
