This is a prototype of a better documentation of the MusicBrainz Web Service.
See also MBS-5307
The result can currently be seen on http://mbsandbox.org/~jonnyjd/swagger/
Put the complete archive to a web accessible location.
The location is currently hard-coded in api-docs.json.
You can use the provided Makefile to change between
locations quickly.
To display the documentation you need an instance of swagger-ui:
You can get a copy with:
git clone https://github.com/wordnik/swagger-ui.git
npm install
Apply the patches in the patches folder of this repository.
This can be done manually or with quilt:
cp -a ../musicbrainz-swagger-docs/patches .
quilt push -a
The result needs some building:
npm run-script build
The now complete dist folder is static
and can be copied to a web accessible location.
You should change the discoveryUrl in dist/index.html
so it points to your api-docs.json.
The documentation and swagger don't need to be on the same server. However, you might need to set up cross origin resource sharing (CORS) for this to work.
On the swagger-core wiki there is documentation on how to do the api documentation with swagger. Please open a pull request here if you have updates or additions.
