Swagger Validator Badge

Build Status

This project shows a "valid swagger" badge on your site, supporting Swagger/OpenAPI 2.0 and OpenAPI 3.x specifications.

There is an online version hosted on http://validator.swagger.io.

Using Docker

You can also pull a docker image of the validator directly from DockerHub, e.g.:

docker pull swaggerapi/swagger-validator-v2:v2.1.5
docker run -it -p 8080:8080 --name swagger-validator-v2 swaggerapi/swagger-validator-v2:v2.1.5

Since version 2.0.2 local and non http/https urls are rejected by default, along with redirects; this is controllable with docker env variables / java system properties:

docker run -it -p 8080:8080 -e "REJECT_LOCAL=false" -e "REJECT_REDIRECT=false" --name swagger-validator-v2 swaggerapi/swagger-validator-v2:v2.1.5

In non docker environments, system properties rejectLocal and rejectRedirect can be used.

Web UI is reachable at http://localhost:8080/index.html and OpenAPI spec at http://localhost:8080/validator/openapi.json

You can validate OpenAPI specifications version 2.0 (Swagger), 3.0 and 3.1. Swagger Parser is used for semantic validation. Depending on jsonSchemaValidation query parameter value also JSON Schema validation can be executed (default to true)

Additional parameters allow to customize parsing and validation mode.

Of course the YOUR_URL needs to be addressable by the validator (i.e. won't find anything on localhost). If it validates, you'll get a nice green VALID logo. Failures will give an INVALID logo, and if there are errors parsing the specification or reaching it, an ugly red ERROR logo.

For example, using https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/master/examples/v2.0/json/petstore-expanded.json as a source, we get ...

If your specification fails to validate for some reason, or if there is an error, you can get more information on why by visiting https://validator.swagger.io/validator/debug?url={YOUR_URL}.

Since the validator uses a browserless back-end to fetch the contents and schema, it's not subject to the terrible world of CORS.

Using cURL

You can also post a spec up to the service with cURL:

curl -X POST -d @swagger.json -H 'Content-Type:application/json' https://validator.swagger.io/validator/debug

In this example, swagger.json is the swagger definition in JSON format, in the CWD.

If your swagger definition file is in YAML format, the command needs to be adapted like so:

curl --data-binary @swagger.yaml -H 'Content-Type:application/yaml' https://validator.swagger.io/validator/debug

Note the use of --data-binary to avoid stripping newlines, along with a different Content-Type header.

Note

All of the above is also applicable to OpenAPI 3.x specifications; for example, using https://petstore3.swagger.io/api/v3/openapi.json as a source, we get ...

Since version 2.1.0 a /parseByUrl and /parseByContent are available, returning a serialized parsed specification, with parsing and result configurable by parameters, e.g. passing resolve, etc. See Swagger Parser.

Running locally

You can build and run the validator locally:

mvn package jetty:run

And access the validator like such:

http://localhost:8080/validator?url={URL}

or

http://localhost:8080/validator?url=http://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json
http://localhost:8080/validator?url=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/master/examples/v3.0/petstore.yaml
