golang-echo-oapi

When To Use

• Use this skill for changes to github.com/adlandh/echo-oapi-middleware/v2 or code that consumes this library.
• Apply it when touching SwaggerYaml, SwaggerYamlWithConfig, SwaggerUI, SwaggerUIWithConfig, their tests, or README examples.

Library Shape

• Package name is echooapimiddleware; it is a single-package Go module with no generated code or subpackages.
• It targets Go 1.25 and Echo v5 (github.com/labstack/echo/v5). Echo handlers use func(c *echo.Context) error.
• Public API accepts *openapi3.T from github.com/getkin/kin-openapi/openapi3; do not add runtime parsing as part of the middleware path unless explicitly requested.

Behavior To Preserve

• Serialize the OpenAPI spec once when middleware is created, not on every request.
• SwaggerYaml defaults to /swagger.yaml and serves only GET and HEAD; all other methods and paths pass through to the next handler.
• SwaggerUI defaults to /swagger, also serves /swagger/ and /swagger/index.html, and wires the YAML endpoint.
• HEAD responses for YAML and UI must set Content-Length and write no body.
• nil specs are valid and produce successful empty YAML responses.
• KeepServers defaults to false: omit top-level servers from emitted YAML without mutating the caller's *openapi3.T.
• Generated Swagger UI HTML references unpkg swagger-ui-dist@5 assets.

Verification Commands

• Fast local check: go test ./....
• CI-equivalent tests: go test -race -coverprofile=coverage.txt -covermode=atomic ./....
• Focused tests: go test -run TestSwaggerYaml_RequestRouting . or go test -run TestSwaggerUI_DefaultPaths ..
• Benchmark YAML serving path: go test -bench BenchmarkSwaggerYamlGET -benchmem ..
• CI lint downloads the shared config before running: curl -sS https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adlandh/golangci-lint-config/refs/heads/main/.golangci.yml -o .golangci.yml, then golangci-lint run.

Implementation Notes

• Keep the middleware chain passthrough behavior explicit; tests depend on non-matching requests reaching downstream Echo routes.
• Prefer small direct functions over new abstractions; this library is intentionally tiny.
• If changing config defaults or route matching, update both README examples and tests in the same change.

Integrating Into A Project

• Do not try to embed or parse swagger.yaml / openapi.yaml at runtime. This library accepts *openapi3.T from github.com/getkin/kin-openapi/openapi3, not a raw YAML file.
• Before reaching for //go:embed or os.ReadFile, check the generated code — most OpenAPI code generators (e.g. oapi-codegen) produce a GetSpec function that returns the parsed *openapi3.T directly. Pass that to SwaggerYAML or SwaggerUI.
