Software developers and API integrators requiring a tool to create client libraries from OpenAPI specifications

About AutoRest

The AutoRest tool generates client libraries for accessing RESTful web services. Input to AutoRest is a spec that describes the REST API using the OpenAPI specification format and streamlines the creation of client code across multiple programming languages, including C#, Java, Python, TypeScript, and Go. This automation enhances consistency and efficiency in API consumption, reducing the manual effort required to develop and maintain client libraries. AutoRest operates through a flexible pipeline that processes OpenAPI input files, transforming them into a code model which is then utilized by language-specific generators to produce client code adhering to each language's design guidelines. The tool supports both OpenAPI 2.0 and 3.0 specifications, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of APIs. Developers can install AutoRest on Windows, macOS, or Linux systems, with installation facilitated via Node.js.

NSwag
NSwag
NSwag is a comprehensive Swagger/OpenAPI 2.0 and 3.0 toolchain for .NET, .NET Core, ASP.NET Core, and TypeScript, written in C#. It enables developers to generate OpenAPI specifications from existing API controllers and create client code from these specifications. NSwag combines functionalities similar to Swashbuckle (for OpenAPI/Swagger generation) and AutoRest (for client generation) into a single toolchain, eliminating the need for both. Key features include the ability to generate Swagger 2.0 and OpenAPI 3.0 specifications from C# ASP.NET (Core) controllers, serve these specifications via ASP.NET (Core) middleware with integrated Swagger UI or ReDoc, and generate C# or TypeScript clients/proxies from the specifications. NSwag offers multiple usage methods, including a user-friendly Windows GUI (NSwagStudio), command-line interfaces compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux, and integration into C# code via NuGet packages.
