I am trying to edit my express-swagger project and following this tutorial to add input validation into an express app
I used swagger-express-mw
package to generate a boilerplate using swagger project create app
but its not clear where I can add my middlewares as explained in the tutorial I mentioned above. Specifically i cant intercept my request, I get a typeError:
TypeError: req.checkBody is not a function
at saveNote
Here is my entry file. Everything apart from the bodyParser and validator function is coming from the boilerplate so I dont understand
SwaggerExpress.create(config, function(err, swaggerExpress) {
if (err) { throw err }
// install middleware
swaggerExpress.register(app)
// middleware
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false })); // my code
app.use(validator()) // my d
const port = process.env.PORT || 10010
app.listen(port)
// if (swaggerExpress.runner.swagger.paths['/notes']) {
// console.log('try this:\nlocalhost:10010/notes to get all notes')
// }
})
I know this is an old question, but this might help someone along the way.Here is the simple NodeJS code showing how to integrate swagger-tools
with swagger-express-mw
or swagger-node-runner
npm packages.
var SwaggerExpress = require('swagger-express-mw');
var swaggerTools = require('swagger-tools');
var app = require('express')();
module.exports = app; // for testing
var config = {
appRoot: __dirname // required config
};
SwaggerExpress.create(config, function(err, swaggerExpress) {
if (err) {
throw err;
}
// install middleware
swaggerExpress.register(app);
//swaggerobject is created by the swagger-express-mw module which is stored in runner object.
var swaggerObjectLoaded = swaggerExpress.runner.swagger;
//pass the runner object to initializeMiddleware function
swaggerTools.initializeMiddleware(swaggerObjectLoaded, function(middleware) {
app.use(middleware.swaggerMetadata());
// Validate Swagger requests
app.use(middleware.swaggerValidator());
// Route validated requests to appropriate controller
app.use(middleware.swaggerRouter(options));
// Serve the Swagger documents and Swagger UI
app.use(middleware.swaggerUi());
var port = process.env.PORT || 10010;
app.listen(port);
if (swaggerExpress.runner.swagger.paths['/hello']) {
console.log('try this:\ncurl http://127.0.0.1:' + port + '/hello?name=Scott');
}
});
});
