Provide an OpenAPI vendor extension to enable auto-wiring declared API endpoints to express route handler functions

I’m writing an issue through Google Translator. I hope the contents are well communicated.

Sir, Your project is amazing. However, it would be nice to have additional features. I’d like to propose to consider introducing additional features, so I’m writing an issue. If you don’t mind me asking please to consider the following features. For example, set operationId, eov-controller (name is just an example) in api.yaml as shown below. I think it would be cool if the routing configuration is automated.

I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you. I wish you good luck.

• api.yaml

openapi: '3.0.0'
info:
  version: 1.0.0
  title: Swagger Petstore
  description: A sample API
  termsOfService: http://swagger.io/terms/

  /pets:
    get:
      description: |
        Returns all pets
      operationId: 'pets#findPets' # will be automatically fetched
      eov-controller: 'pets' # load pets.js

• pets.js

module.exports = {
  'pets#findById': (req, res, next) => {
    res.json(pets.findAll(req.query));
  }
};

• don’t need to write code like this

// It will be fetched automatically.
app.get('/v1/pets', (req, res, next) => {
 res.json(pets.findAll(req.query));
});

Thanks @foway0. This is a nice idea. It’s certainly worth considering.

We do welcome PRs.

If you would like to attempt an initial pass at implementing your proposed feature, I will certainly consider integrating it.

Let me know if you would like to give it a try.

If so, there is also a gitter channel that we can use to chat in real time if desired. https://gitter.im/cdimascio-oss/community
