Summary

Core logic for generating Python source code from OpenAPI specifications.

This module provides reusable utilities for code generation, specifically generating Pydantic models and route handler stubs from OpenAPI 3.x schema definitions.

Functions

generate_models

generate_models(
    spec_path: Path,
    output_path: Path,
    pydantic_version: int = 2,
) -> None

Generate Pydantic models from an OpenAPI specification.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
spec_path	Path	Path to the OpenAPI specification file (YAML or JSON).	required
output_path	Path	Path where the generated Python code should be written.	required
pydantic_version	int	The Pydantic version to target (1 or 2). Defaults to 2.	2

Notes

Reusability: This function is designed to be used by the CLI and can be exposed as an MCP tool without modification.

generate_routes

generate_routes(
    spec_path: Path,
    output_dir: Path,
    *,
    use_models: bool = False,
    models_module: str = "models"
) -> list[Path]

Generate route handler stubs from an OpenAPI specification.

Creates one <resource>.py file per resource in output_dir. Resources are derived from the first path segment (e.g. /pets and /pets/{id} both group under pets).

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
spec_path	Path	Path to the OpenAPI specification file (YAML or JSON).	required
output_dir	Path	Directory where the generated route files are written. Created automatically if it does not exist.	required
use_models	bool	If True, import Pydantic models from models_module for request-body schemas referenced via $ref.	False
models_module	str	Dotted Python module path from which to import models (e.g. "models", "app.models").	'models'

Returns:

Type	Description
list[Path]	list[Path]: Absolute paths of every generated route file.

Raises:

Type	Description
OpenAPISpecLoadError	If the spec cannot be loaded or validated.
ValueError	If any operation is missing operationId.
