Client instances

Flag: --name

The OpenAPI generator allows creation of client instances to support the multiple backend services use case. The generated client uses an instance of the server configuration and not the global OpenAPI constant. To generate a client instance, set a custom name to the client class, use --name option.

openapi --input ./spec.json --output ./generated --name AppClient

The generated client will be exported from the index file and can be used as shown below:

// Create the client instance with server and authentication details
const appClient = new AppClient({
    BASE: 'http://server-host.com',
    TOKEN: '1234',
});

// Use the client instance to make the API call
const response = await appClient.organizations.createOrganization({
  name: 'OrgName',
  description: 'OrgDescription',
});
