Redoc displays definition with selectpicker using which user can select value of the x-extendedDiscriminator
-marked field.
Redoc displays the definition derived from the current (using allOf
) and has enum
with only one value which is the same as the selected value of the field specified as x-extendedDiscriminator
.
x-extendedDiscriminator example
Payment:
x-extendedDiscriminator: type
type: object
required:
- type
properties:
type:
type: string
name:
type: string
CashPayment:
allOf:
- $ref: "#/definitions/Payment"
- properties:
type:
type: string
enum:
- cash
currency:
type: string
PayPalPayment:
allOf:
- $ref: "#/definitions/Payment"
- properties:
type:
type: string
enum:
- paypal
userEmail:

In the example above, the names of definitions (PayPalPayment
) are named differently than names in the payload (paypal
) which is not supported by default discriminator
.

Extends the discriminator
property of the schema object.
Field Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
x-explicitMappingOnly | boolean | limit the discriminator selectpicker to the explicit mappings only |
How to use with Redoc
Redoc uses this extension to filter the discriminator
mappings shown in the selectpicker.
When set to true
, the selectpicker lists only the explicitly defined mappings. When false
, the default behavior is kept, in other words, explicit and implicit mappings are shown.
x-explicitMappingOnly example
Pet:
type: object
required:
- name
- photoUrls
discriminator:
propertyName: petType
x-explicitMappingOnly: true
mapping:
cat: "#/components/schemas/Cat"
bee: "#/components/schemas/HoneyBee"
Shows in the selectpicker only the items cat
and bee
, even though the Dog
class inherits from the Pet
class.
