@ahoo-wang/fetcher-generator

The @ahoo-wang/fetcher-generator package is a CLI tool that reads OpenAPI 3.x specifications (JSON, YAML, or URL) and generates fully typed TypeScript code -- model interfaces/enums, decorator-based API clients, and Wow CQRS-specific command/query clients. Built on ts-morph for code generation and commander for CLI parsing.

Installation

pnpm add -D @ahoo-wang/fetcher-generator

CLI Usage

The fetcher-generator binary reads an OpenAPI spec and writes TypeScript source files into an output directory.

Commands

Command	Description
generate	Generate TypeScript code from an OpenAPI specification
-v, --version	Show version

Generate Options

Option	Short	Required	Default	Description
--input <file>	-i	Yes	--	OpenAPI spec file path or URL
--output <path>	-o	No	src/generated	Output directory
--config <file>	-c	No	./fetcher-generator.config.json	Configuration file path
--ts-config-file-path <file>	-t	No	--	TypeScript configuration file

Example CLI Commands

# Generate from a local YAML spec
npx fetcher-generator generate -i ./openapi.yaml -o ./src/generated

# Generate from a remote URL
npx fetcher-generator generate -i https://api.example.com/v3/api-docs -o ./src/generated

# Generate with a custom config and tsconfig
npx fetcher-generator generate -i ./spec.json -o ./src/api -c ./generator.config.json -t ./tsconfig.json

Source: packages/generator/src/cli.ts

Configuration

The generator reads an optional JSON configuration file (default ./fetcher-generator.config.json):

// GeneratorConfiguration
{
  "apiClients": {
    "TagName": {
      "ignorePathParameters": ["tenantId", "ownerId"]
    }
  }
}

By default, tenantId and ownerId path parameters are ignored when generating API client methods, since they are handled by the CoSec resource attribution interceptor.

Source: packages/generator/src/types.ts:73-87

Code Generation Pipeline

Step 1 -- Parse OpenAPI Specification

The CodeGenerator parses the input spec (JSON, YAML, or URL) into a typed OpenAPI object. It supports file paths and HTTP/HTTPS URLs.

Source: packages/generator/src/index.ts:45-142

Step 2 -- Resolve Bounded Context Aggregates

The AggregateResolver walks all operations to extract Wow bounded context aggregate definitions. It identifies:

• Commands -- operations with wow.CommandOk response schemas
• State -- snapshot state query operations (.snapshot_state.single)
• Events -- event stream list queries (.event.list_query)
• Fields -- snapshot count operations (.snapshot.count)

    participant AR as AggregateResolver
    participant OPS as Operations
    participant AGG as AggregateDefinition

    AR->>OPS: extractOperationEndpoints(paths)
    loop For each operation
        AR->>AR: commands(path, op)
        AR->>AR: state(op)
        AR->>AR: events(op)
        AR->>AR: fields(op)
    end
    AR->>AGG: resolve() -> BoundedContextAggregates
    Note over AR,AGG: Maps contextAlias -> Set of AggregateDefinition

Source: packages/generator/src/aggregate/aggregateResolver.ts:52-289

Step 3 -- Generate Models

The ModelGenerator iterates all OpenAPI component schemas and produces TypeScript types. It filters out Wow framework internal schemas (prefixed with wow.) and aggregate-generated suffix types.

The TypeGenerator handles these schema patterns:

Schema Pattern	Generated TypeScript
enum	enum declaration
object with properties	interface with typed properties
allOf	interface extends (intersection)
oneOf / anyOf	type alias (union)
array	Array<T> type alias
additionalProperties	Record<K, V> with index signature
Primitive types	string, number, boolean

Source: packages/generator/src/model/typeGenerator.ts:50-337

Step 4 -- Generate Clients

The ClientGenerator orchestrates three sub-generators:

graph LR
    subgraph ClientGenerator
        direction LR
        API["ApiClientGenerator"]
        CMD["CommandClientGenerator"]
        QRY["QueryClientGenerator"]
    end

    API --> |"REST API classes<br>per tag"| APICLASS["UserApiClient<br>OrderApiClient"]
    CMD --> |"Command classes<br>per aggregate"| CMDCLASS["CartCommandClient<br>CartStreamCommandClient"]
    QRY --> |"Query factory<br>per aggregate"| QRYCLASS["cartQueryClientFactory"]

    style ClientGenerator fill:#161b22,stroke:#30363d,color:#e6edf3
    style APICLASS fill:#2d333b,stroke:#6d5dfc,color:#e6edf3
    style CMDCLASS fill:#2d333b,stroke:#6d5dfc,color:#e6edf3
    style QRYCLASS fill:#2d333b,stroke:#6d5dfc,color:#e6edf3

Source: packages/generator/src/client/clientGenerator.ts

API Client Generator

Generates decorator-based API client classes from OpenAPI tags. Each class has:

• @api() class decorator with base path
• @get/@post/@put/@delete/@patch method decorators with endpoint paths
• @path parameter decorators for path template variables
• @request parameter decorator for the request body
• @attribute parameter decorator for interceptor attributes

Tags named wow, Actuator, or matching aggregate names are excluded.

Source: packages/generator/src/client/apiClientGenerator.ts:73-598

Command Client Generator

Generates command clients for each Wow aggregate. For every aggregate, it produces:

1. XxxCommandEndpointPaths enum -- maps command names to URL paths
2. XxxCommand type aliases -- typed command bodies wrapped with CommandBody<T>
3. XxxCommandClient class -- sends commands via @post decorators
4. XxxStreamCommandClient class -- extends command client with SSE streaming

Source: packages/generator/src/client/commandClientGenerator.ts:60-434

Query Client Generator

Generates query client factories for each aggregate:

• Domain event type union (XxxDomainEventType)
• Domain event title enum (XxxDomainEventTypeMapTitle)
• QueryClientFactory instance configured with context alias, aggregate name, and resource attribution

Source: packages/generator/src/client/queryClientGenerator.ts:35-226

Step 5 -- Index and Optimize

After all generators run, the code generator:

1. Recursively creates index.ts barrel export files for every output directory
2. Formats all source files with formatText()
3. Organizes imports with organizeImports()
4. Fixes missing imports with fixMissingImports()
5. Saves the ts-morph project to disk

Source: packages/generator/src/index.ts:157-262

Generated Output Structure

For a spec with bounded context example and aggregate Cart:

src/generated/
  index.ts                          # barrel export
  example/
    index.ts                        # barrel export
    boundedContext.ts                # export const example = 'example';
    model/
      index.ts
      CartState.ts                  # interface CartState { ... }
      AddCartItem.ts                # interface AddCartItem { ... }
      CartItemAdded.ts              # interface CartItemAdded { ... }
      ...
    cart/
      index.ts
      commandClient.ts              # CartCommandClient, CartStreamCommandClient
      queryClient.ts                # cartQueryClientFactory
    order/
      ...
  UserApiClient.ts                  # @api() class
  OrderApiClient.ts                 # @api() class

import { CodeGenerator } from '@ahoo-wang/fetcher-generator';

const generator = new CodeGenerator({
  inputPath: './openapi.yaml',
  outputDir: './src/generated',
  tsConfigFilePath: './tsconfig.json',
  logger: console,
});

await generator.generate();

Dependencies

• ts-morph -- TypeScript compiler API wrapper for source file manipulation
• commander -- CLI argument parsing
• @ahoo-wang/fetcher-openapi -- OpenAPI 3.x type definitions
• @ahoo-wang/fetcher -- URL utilities (combineURLs)
• @ahoo-wang/fetcher-decorator -- Decorator utilities for generated clients
• @ahoo-wang/fetcher-wow -- Wow framework types for aggregate definitions

Cross-References

• Decorator -- Generated API clients use @api, @get, @post, and parameter decorators from the decorator package
• Wow -- Command and query clients target the Wow CQRS framework's command and snapshot endpoints
• EventStream -- Generated streaming clients use JsonEventStreamResultExtractor for SSE results
• OpenAPI -- The generator consumes OpenAPI type definitions from the openapi package
