Readme
This is a fork of loopback-component-explorer version 4.2.0. We've basically removed some dependencies and make changes so that it supports oe-cloud project
oe-explorer
Browse and test your oeCloud.io app's APIs.
Basic Usage
Below is a simple LoopBack application. The explorer is mounted at /explorer
.
var loopback = require('loopback');
var app = loopback();
var explorer = require('../');
var port = 3000;
var Product = loopback.Model.extend('product');
Product.attachTo(loopback.memory());
app.model(Product);
app.use('/api', loopback.rest());
// Register explorer using component-centric API:
explorer(app, { basePath: '/api', mountPath: '/explorer' });
// Alternatively, register as a middleware:
app.use('/explorer', explorer.routes(app, { basePath: '/api' }));
console.log("Explorer mounted at localhost:" + port + "/explorer");
app.listen(port);
Options
Options are passed to explorer(app, options)
.
basePath
: String
Default:
app.get('restAPIRoot')
or'/api'
.
Sets the API's base path. This must be set if you are mounting your api to a path different than '/api', e.g. with `loopback.use('/custom-api-root', loopback.rest());
mountPath
: String
Default:
/explorer
Set the path where to mount the explorer component.
protocol
: String
Default:
null
A hard override for the outgoing protocol (
http
orhttps
) that is designated in Swagger resource documents. By default,loopback-component-explorer
will write the protocol that was used to retrieve the doc. This option is useful if, for instance, your API sits behind an SSL terminator and thus needs to report its endpoints ashttps
, even though incoming traffic is auto-detected ashttp
.
uiDirs
: Array of Strings
Sets a list of paths within your application for overriding Swagger UI files.
If present, will search
uiDirs
first when attempting to load Swagger UI, allowing you to pick and choose overrides to the interface. Use this to style your explorer or add additional functionality.
See index.html, where you may want to begin your overrides. The rest of the UI is provided by Swagger UI.
apiInfo
: Object
Additional information about your API. See the spec.
resourcePath
: String
Default:
'resources'
Sets a different path for the resource listing. You generally shouldn't have to change this.
version
: String
Default: Read from package.json
Sets your API version. If not present, will read from your app's package.json.
