|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
- Code samples support (via vendor extension)
|
||
- Responsive three-panel design with menu/scrolling synchronization
|
||
- Integrate API introduction into side menu - ReDoc takes advantage of markdown headings from OpenAPI description field. It pulls them into side menu and also supports deep linking.
|
||
|
||
## Roadmap
|
||
- [x] performance optimizations
|
||
- [ ] better navigation (menu improvements + search)
|
||
- [ ] ability to simple branding/styling
|
||
- [ ] built-in API Console
|
||
- [ ] docs pre-rendering (performance and SEO)
|
||
|
||
## Releases
|
||
We host the latest and all the previous ReDoc releases on GitHub Pages-based **CDN**:
|
||
- 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
|
||
- `latest` release: https://rebilly.github.io/ReDoc/releases/latest/redoc.min.js **[not for production]**
|
||
|
||
## Deployment
|
||
|
||
### TL;DR
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<!DOCTYPE html>
|
||
<html>
|
||
<head>
|
||
<title>ReDoc</title>
|
||
<!-- needed for adaptive design -->
|
||
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
|
||
|
||
<!--
|
||
ReDoc doesn't change outer page styles
|
||
-->
|
||
<style>
|
||
body {
|
||
margin: 0;
|
||
padding: 0;
|
||
}
|
||
</style>
|
||
</head>
|
||
<body>
|
||
<redoc spec-url='http://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json'></redoc>
|
||
<script src="https://rebilly.github.io/ReDoc/releases/latest/redoc.min.js"> </script>
|
||
</body>
|
||
</html>
|
||
```
|
||
That's all folks!
|
||
|
||
### 1. Install ReDoc (skip this step for CDN)
|
||
Install using [bower](bower.io):
|
||
|
||
bower install redoc
|
||
|
||
or using [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/what-is-npm):
|
||
|
||
npm install redoc --save
|
||
|
||
### 2. Reference redoc script in HTML
|
||
For **CDN**:
|
||
```html
|
||
<script src="https://rebilly.github.io/ReDoc/releases/latest/redoc.min.js"> </script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For bower:
|
||
```html
|
||
<script src="bower_components/redoc/dist/redoc.min.js"> </script>
|
||
```
|
||
For npm:
|
||
```html
|
||
<script src="node_modules/redoc/dist/redoc.min.js"> </script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 3. Add `<redoc>` element to your page
|
||
```html
|
||
<redoc spec-url="url/to/your/spec"></redoc>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 4. Enjoy :smile:
|
||
|
||
## Configuration
|
||
|
||
### 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).
|
||
|
||
### Swagger vendor extensions
|
||
ReDoc makes use of the following [vendor extensions](http://swagger.io/specification/#vendorExtensions):
|
||
* [`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-nullable`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#nullable) - mark schema param as a nullable
|
||
* [`x-displayName`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-displayname) - specify human-friendly names for the menu categories
|
||
|
||
### `<redoc>` tag attributes
|
||
* `spec-url` - relative or absolute url to your spec file;
|
||
* `scroll-y-offset` - 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;
|
||
`scroll-y-offset` can be specified in various ways:
|
||
* **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);
|
||
* `suppress-warnings` - if set, warnings are not rendered at the top of documentation (they still are logged to the console).
|
||
* `lazy-rendering` - 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.
|
||
* `hide-hostname` - if set, the protocol and hostname is not shown in the method definition.
|
||
* `expand-responses` - specify which responses to expand by default by response codes. Values should be passed as comma-separated list without spaces e.g. `expand-responses="200,201"`. Special value `"all"` expands all responses by default. Be careful: this option can slow-down documentation rendering time.
|
||
|
||
## Advanced usage
|
||
Instead of adding `spec-url` attribute to the `<redoc>` element you can initialize ReDoc via globally exposed `Redoc` object:
|
||
```js
|
||
Redoc.init(specUrl, options)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
`options` is javascript object with camel-cased version of `<redoc>` tag attribute names as the keys, e.g.:
|
||
```js
|
||
Redoc.init('http://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json', {
|
||
scrollYOffset: 50
|
||
})
|
||
```

## Development
|
||
#### Running local dev-server
|
||

||
`git clone https://github.com/Rebilly/ReDoc.git`
|
||
- Go to the project folder
|
||
`cd ReDoc`
|
||
- Install dependencies
|
||
`npm install`
|
||
- _(optional)_ Replace `demo/swagger.yaml` with your own schema
|
||
- Start the server
|
||
`npm start`
|
