A Node.js module and CLI for designing, building, and testing Swagger 2.0-compliant REST APIs, integrating with Express, Hapi, Restify, and Sails. It bundles an editor, validation, and routing driven by a Swagger YAML specification. The repository is archived and no longer maintained.

Use cases

• design and build a REST API in Node.js from an OpenAPI/Swagger spec
• scaffold a Swagger API project from the command line
• validate and route API endpoints from a Swagger 2.0 YAML definition
• edit an API spec in a built-in browser-based editor with live validation
• auto-generate API documentation from a Swagger definition

When to choose

• you must maintain a legacy Node.js project already built on the swagger module
• you need a spec-first Swagger 2.0 workflow with Express, Hapi, Restify, or Sails and can accept an unmaintained dependency

When to avoid

• starting a new project - the repo is archived and the npm package may be repurposed
• you need OpenAPI 3.x support or active maintenance
• you only need Swagger UI, Editor, or Codegen - use the individual actively maintained Swagger tools instead
