JSON schema invalid?

[Farmer-Ed]

@paul121

ule is what provides an OpenAPI doc: OpenAPI | Drupal.org

We evaluated it a while back and saw some issues. But as I recall it was largely with the OpenAPI client libraries like Swagger UI for OpenAPI UI | Drupal.org and ReDoc for OpenAPI UI | Drupal.org.

Perhaps the openapi module itself is better? It would be worth checking that out. @mstenta and I chatted recently with a maintainer of some lower-level schema modules tangential to all this… it sounds like there may be an effort forming to fix some of the common lower level issues all of these modules are trying to solve

I did some testing with OpenAPI modules myself as I found swagger nodes that I thought may have been useful in Node-Red, probably not enough to do a Propper evaluation though as I abandoned trying to make farmOS fit these nodes in favour creating nodes specifically for farmOS. farmOS, NodeRed, Home Assistant etc - #27 by Farmer-Ed

Is this a deep incompatibility, i wonder, or is it a simpler matter to fix, like maybe just some frontmatter to be added in?

The very first thing Postman does when you try to load the schema json is read the schema type from the first line in the json so it fails immediately as its an unrecognized type. Perhaps some sort of plugin/addon is available or could be made to add extra schema?

@walt

By the way, Ed: as i recently discovered this Flows feature in Postman, it reminded me very much of your developments in NodeRED -another Visual Programming Environment, in which you can chain blocks of code (requests, variables, what have you) together in workflows, even though they come from different environments. Maybe worth a look-see, if you should ever get bored of NodeRED

I’ve been aware of this feature for a while, there are a few other similar tools out there, but I find Node-Red has the biggest community support.
