[Show NC] An offline GUI swagger codegenerator

last edited byUnless you live under a rock I am sure you must be knowing of the awesome Swagger spec that makes writing both client and server boilerplate really easy
They even have an API (and API to generate API - such APIception) at http://generator.swagger.io, and to top it off, they have a webapp where you can type your API spec in a editor, and it makes live documentation, and allows you to generate code for more than 10 server frameworks and over 20 client frameworks - http://editor.swagger.io
So I was really jobless today, and I cooked up a Java/Swing based offline GUI into which you can drop a swagger.yaml or swagger.json file, and it will spew out generated code for a whole many number of frameworks.
Here is the zip of the jar. Run it via the usual
java -jar swagger-codegen-gui.jarmethod

last edited bySuper, super useful. Planning to use Swagger for the backend portion of an app I've got in mind, and this is going to be a godsend.
