sanic-transmute

build status coverage status

Easily document your Sanic API with Swagger UI, Plus param validation and model serialization.

What is sanic-transmute ?

A transmute framework for sanic. This framework provides:

  • declarative generation of http handler interfaces by parsing function annotations
  • validation and serialization to and from a variety of content types (e.g. json or yaml).
  • validation and serialization to and from native python objects, using attrs and schematics.
  • autodocumentation of all handlers generated this way, via swagger.

Quick start

Let’s get started.

Find Examples here:

Simple example with schematics model.

from sanic import Sanic, Blueprint
from sanic.response import json
from sanic_transmute import describe, add_route, add_swagger, APIException
from sanic.exceptions import ServerError
from schematics.models import Model
from schematics.types import IntType


class User(Model):
    points = IntType()


app = Sanic()
bp = Blueprint("test_blueprints", url_prefix="/blueprint")


@describe(paths="/api/v1/user/{user}/", methods="GET")
async def test_transmute(request, user: str, env: str=None, group: [str]=None):
    """
    API Description: Transmute Get. This will show in the swagger page (localhost:8000/api/v1/).
    """
    return {
        "user": user,
        "env": env,
        "group": group,
    }


@describe(paths="/killme")
async def handle_exception(request) -> User:
    """
    API Description: Handle exception. This will show in the swagger page (localhost:8000/api/v1/).
    """
    raise ServerError("Something bad happened", status_code=500)


@describe(paths="/api/v1/user/missing")
async def handle_api_exception(request) -> User:
    """
    API Description: Handle APIException. This will show in the swagger page (localhost:8000/api/v1/).
    """
    raise APIException("Something bad happened", code=404)


@describe(paths="/multiply")
async def get_blueprint_params(request, left: int, right: int) -> str:
    """
    API Description: Multiply, left * right. This will show in the swagger page (localhost:8000/api/v1/).
    """
    res = left * right
    return "{left}*{right}={res}".format(left=left, right=right, res=res)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    add_route(app, test_transmute)
    add_route(app, handle_exception)
    add_route(app, handle_api_exception)
    # register blueprints
    add_route(bp, get_blueprint_params)
    app.blueprint(bp)
    # add swagger
    add_swagger(app, "/api/v1/swagger.json", "/api/v1/")
    app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=8000)

Simple example with attrs model.

from sanic.exceptions import ServerError
import attr


@attr.s

app = Sanic()
bp = Blueprint("test_blueprints", url_prefix="/blueprint")


@describe(paths="/api/v1/user/{user}/", methods="GET")
async def test_transmute_get(request, user: str, env: str=None, group: [str]=None):
    """
    API Description: Transmute Get. This will show in the swagger page (localhost:8000/api/v1/).
    """
    return {
        "user": user,
        "env": env,
        "group": group,
    }


@describe(paths="/api/v1/user/", methods="POST")
async def test_transmute_post(request, user: User) -> User:

    return user

    """
    API Description: Handle exception. This will show in the swagger page (localhost:8000/api/v1/).
    """
    raise ServerError("Something bad happened", status_code=500)


@describe(paths="/api/v1/user/missing")
async def handle_api_exception(request) -> User:
    """
    API Description: Handle APIException. This will show in the swagger page (localhost:8000/api/v1/).
    """
    raise APIException("Something bad happened", code=404)


@describe(paths="/multiply")
async def get_blueprint_params(request, left: int, right: int) -> str:
    """
    API Description: Multiply, left * right. This will show in the swagger page (localhost:8000/api/v1/).
    """
    res = left * right
    return "{left}*{right}={res}".format(left=left, right=right, res=res)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    add_route(app, test_transmute_get)
    add_route(app, test_transmute_post)
    add_route(app, handle_exception)
    add_route(app, handle_api_exception)
    # register blueprints

    add_swagger(app, "/api/v1/swagger.json", "/api/v1/")

Routes

Example

Adding routes follows the standard transmute pattern, with a decorator converting a function to an aiohttp route:

from sanic_transmute import describe, add_route
from sanic import Sanic

app = Sanic()

# define a GET endpoint, taking a query parameter integers left and right,
# which must be integers.
@describe(paths="/{name}")
async def multiply(request, name: str, left: int, right: int) -> int:
    return left + right

# append to your route later
add_route(app, multiply)

the sanic request argument is supported: it will be passed into any function that has ‘request’ in it’s function signature.

see transmute-core:function for more information on customizing transmute routes.

API Documentation

sanic_transmute.describe(**kwargs)[source]

describe is a decorator to customize the rest API that transmute generates, such as choosing certain arguments to be query parameters or body parameters, or a different method.

Parameters:
  • paths (list(str)) – the path(s) for the handler to represent (using swagger’s syntax for a path)
  • methods (list(str)) – the methods this function should respond to. if non is set, transmute defaults to a GET.
  • query_parameters (list(str)) – the names of arguments that should be query parameters. By default, all arguments are query_or path parameters for a GET request.
  • body_parameters (List[str] or str) –

    the names of arguments that should be body parameters. By default, all arguments are either body or path parameters for a non-GET request.

    in the case of a single string, the whole body is validated against a single object.

  • header_parameters (list(str)) – the arguments that should be passed into the header.
  • path_parameters (list(str)) – the arguments that are specified by the path. By default, arguments that are found in the path are used first before the query_parameters and body_parameters.
  • parameter_descriptions (list(str)) – descriptions for each parameter, keyed by attribute name. this will appear in the swagger documentation.

Serialization

See serialization in transmute-core.

Autodocumentation

You can use add_swagger(app, json_path, html_path) to add swagger documentation for all transmute routes.

sanic_transmute.add_swagger(app, "/api/v1/swagger.json", "/ap1/v1")

The swagger page looks like,

API Reference

sanic_transmute.add_swagger(app, json_route, html_route)[source]

a convenience method for both adding a swagger.json route, as well as adding a page showing the html documentation
