|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
- Extremely easy deployment
|
|
- The widest OpenAPI features support (yes, it supports even `discriminator`) <br>
|
|
|
|
- Neat **interactive** documentation for nested objects <br>
|
|
|
|
- Code samples support (via vendor extension) <br>
|
|
|
|
- Progressive loading with `lazy-rendering` options <br>
|
|
|
|
- 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.
|
|
- High-level grouping in side-menu via [`x-tagGroups`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-tagGroups) vendor extension
|
|
- Multiple ReDoc instances on single page ([example](demo/examples/multiple-apis/index.html))
|
|
|
|
## Roadmap
|
|
- [x] ~~performance optimizations~~
|
|
- [x] ~~better navigation (menu improvements + search)~~
|
|
- [ ] ability to simple branding/styling
|
|
- [ ] built-in API Console
|
|
- [ ] docs pre-rendering (performance and SEO)
|
|
|
|

## Deployment
|
|
|
|
### TL;DR
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<!DOCTYPE html>
|
|
<html>
|
|
<head>
|
|
<title>ReDoc</title>
|
|
<!-- needed for adaptive design -->
|
|
<meta charset="utf-8"/>
|
|
<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-examples`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-examples) - specify JSON example for requests
|
|
* [`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
|
|
* [`x-tagGroups`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-tagGroups) - group tags by categories in the side menu
|
|
* [`x-servers`](docs/redoc-vendor-extensions.md#x-servers) - ability to specify different servers for API (backported from OpenAPI 3.0)
|
|
|
|
### `<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.
|
|
* `required-props-first` - show required properties first ordered in the same order as in `required` array.
|
|
|
|
## Advanced usage
|
|
Instead of adding `spec-url` attribute to the `<redoc>` element you can initialize ReDoc via globally exposed `Redoc` object:
|
|
```js
|
|
Redoc.init(specOrSpecUrl, options)
|
|
```
|
|
`specOrSpecUrl` is either JSON object with specification or an URL to the spec in `JSON` or `YAML` format.
|
|
`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
|
|
- Clone repository
|
|
`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`
