import { createExpressRoute } from 'typescript-routes-to-openapi-server';

type NewPet = {
  name: string;
  tag?: string;
};

type Pet = NewPet & {
  id: number;
};

export class PetController {

import { generatedRoutes } from './generated/routes';

const app = express();
const PORT = 8888;

app.use(express.json());
app.use(generatedRoutes);

app.listen(PORT, () => {
  console.log('Listening on', PORT);
});
