API Documentation Pipeline

Generate complete API documentation from your codebase, validate data schemas, and create integration tests -all automatically. This workflow ensures your API docs are accurate, your schemas are solid, and consumers have working examples.

4 Steps
01

Generate OpenAPI docs

DGdoc-generator

Scan your API routes and generate a complete OpenAPI/Swagger specification. Automatically detects endpoints, request/response types, authentication schemes, and produces interactive documentation.

$/api-docs--format openapi --output docs/api.yaml
OpenAPI specEndpoint catalogAuth documentation
02

Generate API README

DGdoc-generator

Create a developer-friendly README with quickstart guides, authentication examples, and common usage patterns. This is the human-readable companion to the OpenAPI spec.

$/readme-generate--type api --include-examples
API quickstartUsage examplesAuth guide
03

Validate and generate schemas

DCdata-converter

Validate your API responses against the generated spec and produce typed schemas. Creates TypeScript interfaces, JSON Schema definitions, or Zod validators that keep your frontend and backend in sync.

$/schema-generator--source docs/api.yaml --output src/types/
TypeScript typesJSON schemasValidation rules
04

Create integration tests

TGtest-generator

Generate end-to-end integration tests for every API endpoint. Tests cover happy paths, error cases, authentication, and edge cases with realistic test data -ready to run in CI.

$/generate-e2e-tests--target src/routes/ --include-auth
Integration testsError case coverageCI-ready suite

Getting the most out of this workflow

Start with /api-docs to generate the OpenAPI spec first. This becomes the source of truth that drives schema validation and test generation.

Use /schema-generator to create TypeScript interfaces or Zod validators from your API responses. This catches type mismatches between frontend and backend early.

Generate integration tests that actually call your endpoints. Pair with /test-data-factory to create realistic payloads for edge case testing.
