Feature request: export as OpenAPI draft specification. about milkman

[warmuuh]

Sounds useful. I might think of a separate plugin with im/export for openapi...maybe other openapi related features as well...

hi. i decided against implementing openapi-spec export as it is not directly related to the core functionality of milkman. it should not be a tool to create specs, it should be a tool for debugging / exploring APIs. I did implement an openapi-import though and based on this, you could easily implement an exporter as well, i guess.

Any verbal description of how to accomplish adding an exporter would appreciated. That way, I can decided whether to try to add the exporter, or just move on. Thanks.

sure, all you need to do implement a collectionExporter and register it (here is the example postman exporter) and create an OpenAPI spec and write it to some file. to create a separate plugin, just create a new project which imports the dependencies as provided (such as for example the explorer-plugin which depends on rest-plugin). to depend on milkman, you can use jitpack.io as described here, or have both projects in the same workspace.
