Overview

orval is able to generate client with appropriate type-signatures (TypeScript) from any valid OpenAPI v3 or Swagger v2 specification, either in yaml or json formats.

Motivation

I often use a swagger as contract between the frontend and backend team. And before Orval, I used the swagger editor or swagger codegen but that wasn't enough for my need. That's why I started Orval.

Main goals:

• Generate typescript models
• Generate HTTP Calls
• Generate Mocks with MSW

The default generated client use axios and can be used by fetch API or your favourite Javascript framework like Angular, React or Vue. It's just a function who takes an instance of axios or function of fetch API in argument and return an object where each key is a function who setup a call HTTP. Learn more

Orval can also generate the following client:

• React query with axios
• Angular with HttpClient
