Clojurians Log v2

each of my services publishes their schemas under a certain endpoint convention and my clients can consume those (since the schemas often are more complex than what can be represented by swagger)

right we define all our schemas in a shared utility library

i’m more talking about coercing the json response from one of our services into clojure datastructures using a given schema

right now we manually call ring.swagger.schema/coerce! on the json response and pass it the relevant schema

just seemed like something someone might have built a library for

Interesting. What would the library do?

It would be cool if schemas & specs would have symmetric encode & decode, so they could be used over the wire. Spec gets close with this.

Something related: https://github.com/metosin/compojure-api/issues/148 & https://github.com/oliyh/martian

well i’m imagining a wrapper around clj-http that could take a :responses map like you define in your api and automatically coerce the json for you

nice, martian looks close

There is also https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen

yeah the problem with using swagger directly is you lose the schema part

the main reason we use coerce! is to convert date/money strings back into joda time/money objects

which swagger can’t represent

If the client can access the some shared schema/spec namespaces, it would be possible to create a martian-style client for schema/spec.

yeah all schema is shared in a utility library

definitely gonna look into martian

yeah i think the main issue with martian is it doesn’t support async yet
