Swashbuckle.OData

Coverage Status

Extends Swashbuckle with OData v4 support! Supports both WebApi and OData controllers!

Getting Started

Install Swashbuckle

Install the Swashbuckle.OData NuGet package:

Install-Package Swashbuckle.OData

In SwaggerConfig configure the custom provider:

c.CustomProvider(defaultProvider => new ODataSwaggerProvider(defaultProvider, c, GlobalConfiguration.Configuration));

Include Navigation Properties in your entity swagger models

By default, OData does not get related entities unless you specify $expand on a navigation property. Swashbuckle.OData tries to accurately reflect this behavior and therefore, by default, does not include navigation properties in your entity swagger models. You can override this though by specifying:

c.CustomProvider(defaultProvider => new ODataSwaggerProvider(defaultProvider, c, GlobalConfiguration.Configuration).Configure(odataConfig =>
                    {
                        odataConfig.IncludeNavigationProperties();
                    }));

Enable caching of swagger requests

To enable the built-in cache functionality you must set this configuration:

c.CustomProvider(defaultProvider => new ODataSwaggerProvider(defaultProvider, c, GlobalConfiguration.Configuration).Configure(odataConfig =>
                    {
                        // Enable Cache for swagger doc requests
                        odataConfig.EnableSwaggerRequestCaching();
                    }));

Assemblies Resolver dependency injection for OData Models

Configuration example to inject your own IAssembliesResolver instead of using DefaultAssembliesResolver:

c.CustomProvider(defaultProvider => new ODataSwaggerProvider(defaultProvider, c, GlobalConfiguration.Configuration).Configure(odataConfig =>
                    {
                        //Set custom AssembliesResolver
                        odataConfig.SetAssembliesResolver(new CustomAssembliesResolver());
                    }));

Custom Swagger Routes

The following snippet demonstrates how to configure a custom swagger route such that it will appear in the Swagger UI:

// Let's say you map a custom OData route that doesn't follow the OData conventions 
// and where the target controller action doesn't have an [ODataRoute] attribute
var customODataRoute = config.MapODataServiceRoute("CustomODataRoute", ODataRoutePrefix, GetModel(), batchHandler: null, pathHandler: new DefaultODataPathHandler(), routingConventions: myCustomConventions);

// Then describe your route to Swashbuckle.OData so that it will appear in the Swagger UI
config.AddCustomSwaggerRoute(customODataRoute, "/Customers({Id})/Orders")
    .Operation(HttpMethod.Post)
    // The name of the parameter as it appears in the path
    .PathParameter<int>("Id")
    // The name of the parameter as it appears in the controller action
    .BodyParameter<Order>("order");

The above route resolves to an OrdersController (the last path segment defining the controller) and hits the Post action:

[ResponseType(typeof(Order))]
public async Task<IHttpActionResult> Post([FromODataUri] int customerId, Order order)
{
  ...
}

Custom property resolver

The following snippet demonstrates how to configure a custom property resolver, which resolves a schema's property name, instead of using a DataMemberAttribute:

c.CustomProvider(defaultProvider => new ODataSwaggerProvider(defaultProvider, c, GlobalConfiguration.Configuration).Configure(odataConfig =>
                    {
                        //Set custom ProperyResolver
                        odataConfig.SetProperyResolver(new DefaultProperyResolver());
                    }));

RESTier

By default, Swashbuckle.OData only displays RESTier routes for top-level entity types. You can describe and display additional routes, for related types, in the Swagger UI by configuring custom swagger routes. For example from the Northwind model, to display a route that queries an Order (a related type) for a Customer (a top-level entity type), configure the following:

var restierRoute = await config.MapRestierRoute<DbApi<NorthwindContext>>("RESTierRoute", "restier", new RestierBatchHandler(server));

config.AddCustomSwaggerRoute(restierRoute, "/Customers({CustomerId})/Orders({OrderId})")
    .Operation(HttpMethod.Get)
    .PathParameter<string>("CustomerId")
    .PathParameter<int>("OrderId");

Route prefixes that have parameters

The follow snippet demonstrates how to configure route prefixes that have parameters:

// For example, if you have a route prefix with a parameter "tenantId" of type long
var odataRoute = config.MapODataServiceRoute("odata", "odata/{tenantId}", builder.GetEdmModel());

// Then add the following route constraint so that Swashbuckle.OData knows the parameter type.
// If you don't add this line then the parameter will be assumed to be of type string.
odataRoute.Constraints.Add("tenantId", new LongRouteConstraint());

Swashbuckle.OData supports the following route constraints:

Parameter TypeRoute Constraint
boolBoolRouteConstraint
DateTimeDateTimeRouteConstraint
decimalDecimalRouteConstraint
doubleDoubleRouteConstraint
floatFloatRouteConstraint
GuidGuidRouteConstraint
intIntRouteConstraint
longLongRouteConstraint

OWIN

If your service is hosted using OWIN middleware, configure the custom provider as follows:

httpConfiguration
    .EnableSwagger(c =>
    {
        // Use "SingleApiVersion" to describe a single version API. Swagger 2.0 includes an "Info" object to
        // hold additional metadata for an API. Version and title are required but you can also provide
        // additional fields by chaining methods off SingleApiVersion.
        //
        c.SingleApiVersion("v1", "A title for your API");

        // Wrap the default SwaggerGenerator with additional behavior (e.g. caching) or provide an
        // alternative implementation for ISwaggerProvider with the CustomProvider option.
        //
        c.CustomProvider(defaultProvider => new ODataSwaggerProvider(defaultProvider, c, httpConfiguration));
    })
    .EnableSwaggerUi();

Development

You'll need:

  1. Visual Studio 2015
  2. Code Contracts
  3. NuGet Package Project to generate the NuGet package.

If you submit an enhancement or bug fix, please include a unit test similar to this that verifies the change. Let's shoot for 100% unit test coverage of the code base.
