Jbuilder::Schema

Easily Generate OpenAPI 3.1 Schemas from Jbuilder Templates

Quick Start

Installation

Add this to your Gemfile:

gem "jbuilder"
gem "jbuilder-schema"

Then, run bundle or install it manually using gem install jbuilder-schema.

Generating Schemas

Use Jbuilder::Schema.yaml or Jbuilder::Schema.json to create schemas. For example:

Jbuilder::Schema.yaml(@article, title: 'Article', description: 'Article in the blog', locals: { current_user: @user })

This will render a Jbuilder template (e.g., articles/_article.json.jbuilder) and make @article available in the partial. You can also pass additional locals.

Contents

Advanced Usage

Rendering Specific Directories

If your Jbuilder templates are in a specific directory, use Jbuilder::Schema.renderer:

jbuilder = Jbuilder::Schema.renderer('app/views/api/v1', locals: { current_user: @user })
jbuilder.yaml @article, title: 'Article', description: 'Article in the blog'

Rendering Templates

For templates like app/views/articles/index.jbuilder, specify the template path and variables:

Jbuilder::Schema.yaml(template: "articles/index", assigns: { articles: Article.first(3) })

Output

Jbuilder::Schema automatically sets description, type, and required fields in the JSON Schema. You can customize these using the schema: hash.

Example

# _article.json.jbuilder
json.extract! article, :id, :title, :body, :created_at

Result

type: object
title: Article
description: Article in the blog
required:
  - id
  - title
  - body
properties:
  id:
    type: integer
    description: Article ID
  title:
    type: string
    description: Article Title
  body:
    type: string
    description: Article Contents
  created_at:
    type:
      - string
      - "null"
    format: date-time
    description: Timestamp when article was created

Handling Arrays and Objects

The gem efficiently handles arrays and objects, including nested structures. Arrays with a single element type are straightforwardly represented, while arrays with mixed types use the anyOf keyword for versatility.

Support of various object types like Hash, Struct, OpenStruct, and ActiveRecord::Base is also integrated. It simplifies object schemas by setting only type and properties.

Example

json.custom_array [1, article.user, 2, "Text", [3.14, 25.44], 5.33, [3, "Another text", {a: 4, b: "One more text"}], {c: 5, d: "And another"}, {e: 6, f: {g: 7, h: "Last Text"}}]

Result

properties:
  custom_array:
    type:
      - array
      - "null"
    minContains: 0
    contains:
      anyOf:
        - type: integer
        - type: object
          # ... ActiveRecord object properties ...
        - type: string
        - type: array
          # All arrays are merged in one so all possible values of arrays are in one place
          minContains: 0
          contains:
            anyOf:
              - type: number
              - type: integer
              - type: string
              - type: object
                properties:
                  a:
                    type: integer
                    # ... description ...
                  b:
                    type: integer
                    # ... description ...
        - type: number
        - type: object
          properties:
            c:
              type: integer
              # ... description ...
            d:
              type: integer
              # ... description ...
        - type: object
          properties:
            e:
              type: integer
              # ... description ...
            f:
              type: object
              properties:
                h:
                  type: integer
                  # ... description ...
                g:
                  type: string
                  # ... description ...
    description: Very weird custom array

Each schema is unique, ensuring no duplication. Description fields are nested under parent field names for clarity.

Nested Partials and Arrays

Nested partials and arrays will most commonly produce reference to the related schema component. Only if block with partial includes other fields, the inline object will be generated.

Example

json.author do
  json.partial! "api/v1/users/user", user: article.user
end
json.comments do
  json.array! article.comments, partial: "api/v1/articles/comments/comment", as: :article_comment
end
json.ratings do
    json.array! article.ratings, schema: {object: article.ratings.first, title: "Rating", description: "Article Rating"} do |rating|
      json.partial! "api/v1/shared/id", resource: rating
      json.extract! rating, :value
    end
end

Result

# ... object description ...
properties:
  author:
    type: object
    allOf:
      - "$ref": "#/components/schemas/User"
    description: User
  comments:
    type: array
    items:
      - "$ref": "#/components/schemas/Comment"
    description: Comments
  ratings:
    type: array
    items:
      type: object
      title: Rating
      description: Article Rating
      required:
        - id
        - value
      properties:
        id:
          type: integer
          description: Rating ID
        public_id:
          type:
            - string
            - "null"
          description: Rating Public ID
        value:
          type: integer
          description: Rating Value
    description: Article Ratings

Reference names are taken from :as option or first of the locals:.

The path to component schemas can be configured with components_path variable, which defaults to components/schemas. See Configuration for more info.

Customization

Customize individual or multiple fields at once using the schema: attribute. For nested objects and collections, use the schema: {object: <nested_object>} format.

Example

json.id article.id, schema: { type: :number, description: "Custom ID description" }
json.title article.title, schema: { minLength: 5, maxLength: 20 }
json.contents article.body, schema: { type: :text, maxLength: 500, required: true }
json.created_at article.created_at.strftime('%d/%m/%Y'), schema: { format: :date, pattern: /^(3[01]|[12][0-9]|0[1-9])\/(1[0-2]|0[1-9])\/[0-9]{4}$/ }

json.author schema: {object: article.user, title: "Article Author", description: "The person who wrote the article", required: true} do
  json.extract! article.user, :id, :name, :email, schema: {id: {type: :string}, email: {type: :email, pattern: /^[\w-\.]+@([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]{2,4}$/}}
end

Result

required:
  - id
  - title
  - contents
  - author

    type: number
    description: Custom ID description

    minLength: 5
    maxLength: 20
    description: Title of an article
  contents:
    type: string
    maxLength: 500
    description: Contents of an article
  created_at:
    type:
      - string
      - "null"
    format: date
    pattern: "^(3[01]|[12][0-9]|0[1-9])\/(1[0-2]|0[1-9])\/[0-9]{4}$"
    description: Timestamp when article was created
  author:
    type: object
    title: Article Author
    description: The person who wrote the article
    required:
      - id
      - name
      - email
    properties:

        type: email
        pattern: "^[\w-\.]+@([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]{2,4}$"
        description: User Email

Titles & Descriptions

Set custom titles and descriptions directly or through locale files. For models, use <underscored_plural_model_name>.<title_name> and for fields, use <underscored_plural_model_name>.fields.<field_name>.<description_name> in locale files:

en:
  articles:
    title: Article
    description: The main object on the blog
    fields:
      title:
        description: The title of an article

Configuration

Configure Jbuilder::Schema in config/initializers/jbuilder_schema.rb:

The title_name and description_name parameters can accept either a single string or an array of strings. This feature provides the flexibility to specify fallback keys.

Jbuilder::Schema.configure do |config|
  config.components_path = "components/schemas" # could be "definitions/schemas"
  config.title_name = "title" # could be "label", or an array to support fallbacks, like
  config.description_name = %w[api_description description] # could be just string as well like "heading"
end

With this configuration, the system will first try to find a translation for <underscored_plural_model_name>.fields.<field_name>.api_description. If it doesn't find a translation for this key, it will then attempt to find a translation for <underscored_plural_model_name>.fields.<field_name>.description.

Integration with RSwag

Use yaml/json methods in your swagger_helper.rb for Swagger documentation:

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.swagger_docs = {
    components: {
      schemas: {
        article: Jbuilder::Schema.yaml(FactoryBot.build(:article, id: 1),
          title: 'Article',
          description: 'Article in the blog',
          locals: {
            current_user: FactoryBot.build(:user, admin: true)
          })
      }
    }
  }
end
