oxide.ts

We have written our own http server framework focused on openapi support: https://docs.rs/dropshot/latest/dropshot/ https://serde.rs/ is the serialization/deserialization framework in Rust, and is well supported in the ecosystem. We also wrote https://github.com/oxidecomputer/oxide.ts to generate TypeScript clients from the OpenAPI. We mostly use react-router (or remix for older things that haven't been upgraded yet). So the way that it works is, you define your api in dropshot. You ask it to generate an openapi document. You run this on that document to get a typescript client. And then you use that client in your react-router application. I'm personally using it in the "framework" mode, so I have a "backend for frontend" going on, but the main appliccation is using it purely on the client, served from the same server as that API. Both h

We more or less did that too. We generate typed wrappers for every handler, and then we manually implement the internal logic for each endpoint. I doubt reliably generating 100% of the logic is possible, but even if it is, I would guess it's more work to do that than to do it manually. Generator: https://github.com/oxidecomputer/oxide.ts/blob/64401fa2/gene... Generated output: https://github.com/oxidecomputer/console/blob/8e74accf/libs/... Manually implemented endpoint behavior: https://github.com/oxidecomputer/console/blob/8e74accf/libs/...

At my job we've found working with MSW + OpenAPI to be near miraculous. I work on a web frontend and do most of my development against a mock API powered by MSW. This live preview runs against the mock API running fully in-browser. https://oxide-console-preview.vercel.app More details: https://github.com/oxidecomputer/oxide.ts https://github.com/oxidecomputer/console https://oxide.computer/podcasts/oxide-and-friends/1426644 Really excited about this next step for MSW — we'll be upgrading soon. Building on web standards buys you so much. (Reposted at top level because the parent got flagged.)
