Build the image
This is only required if you want to try new changes in the Dockerfile of this project.
docker build -t local-openapi-diff .
You can replace the local image name local-openapi-diff
by any name of your choice.
Run an instance
In this example the $(pwd)/core/src/test/resources
directory is mounted in the /specs
directory of the container
in readonly mode (ro
).
docker run --rm -t \
-v $(pwd)/core/src/test/resources:/specs:ro \
openapitools/openapi-diff:latest /specs/path_1.yaml /specs/path_2.yaml
The remote name openapitools/openapi-diff
can be replaced with local-openapi-diff
or the name you gave to your local image.
Usage
openapi-diff can read OpenAPI specs from JSON files or HTTP URLs.

Maven Plugin
Add openapi-diff to your POM to show diffs when you test your Maven project. You may opt to throw an error if you have broken backwards compatibility or if your API has changed.

String html = new HtmlRender("Changelog",
"http://deepoove.com/swagger-diff/stylesheets/demo.css")
.render(diff);
try {
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter("testNewApi.html");
fw.write(html);
fw.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Markdown
String render = new MarkdownRender().render(diff);
try {
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter("testDiff.md");
fw.write(render);
fw.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
JSON
String render = new JsonRender().render(diff);
try {
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter("testDiff.json");
fw.write(render);
fw.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Extensions
This project uses Java Service Provider Inteface (SPI) so additional extensions can be added.
To build your own extension, you simply need to create a src/main/resources/META-INF/services/org.openapitools.openapidiff.core.compare.ExtensionDiff
file with the full classname of your implementation.
Your class must also implement the org.openapitools.openapidiff.core.compare.ExtensionDiff
interface.
Then, including your library with the openapi-diff
module will cause it to be triggered automatically.
