⚠️ This package doesn't support AsyncAPI 1.x anymore. We recommend to upgrade to the latest AsyncAPI version using the AsyncAPI converter. If you need to convert documents on the fly, you may use the Node.js or Go converters.

Overview

Generator is a tool that you can use to generate whatever you want basing on the AsyncAPI specification file as an input.

To specify what exactly must be generated you create so called template. To create your own template, go to section that explains How to create a template.

There is a large number of templates that are ready to use and are officially supported by the AsyncAPI Initiative.

You can find above templates and the ones provided by the community in this list

Requirements

• Node.js v12.16 and higher
• npm v6.13.7 and higher

Install both packages using official installer. After installation make sure both packages have proper version by running node -v and npm -v. To upgrade invalid npm version run npm install npm@latest -g

The generator is tested at the moment against Node 14 and NPM 6. Using newer versions is enabled but we don't guarantee they work well. Please provide feedback via issues.

Using from the command-line interface (CLI)

CLI installation

CLI usage

Learn more about different ways of using the CLI from the usage document.

Generator version vs Template version

Learn more about versioning from the versioning document.

How to create a template
