Parameter serialization format

[erictuvesson]

Hey,

I currently came across an issue where we annotate the code with uppercase "Integer", but Swagger only supports lowercase integer.
https://swagger.io/docs/specification/data-models/data-types/

Is there a way to force it to be lowercase or have a way to convert types to a different name?

It could be nice to have a hash where you can map to custom types.

Something like this maybe

{
  "Integer" => "integer"
}

This block of code is where identifiers are handled by the parser.

Looks like you could monkeypatch the SwaggerYard::Model.mangle method and add your custom behaviors:

class SwaggerYard::Model
  def self.mangle(name)
    case name
    when /Integer/
      name.downcase
    else
      name.gsub(/[^[:alnum:]_]+/, '_')
    end
  end
end

If you want to submit a patch to add some more formalized custom type mapping, feel free to submit a PR.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I would love to do a PR, just I don't have the time for it 😞

I ended up adding this monkeypatch, maybe I will add more types later. I only found an issue with String and Integer types now.

  module SwaggerYard
    class Model
      def self.mangle(name)
        case name
        when /string/i then name.downcase
        when /integer/i then name.downcase
        else
          name.gsub(/[^[:alnum:]_]+/, '_')
        end
      end
    end
  end
