OpenAPI 3.0 use a different base URI for relative URLs in $ref












0















I'm new to OpenAPI 3.0, so let me know if I'm using bad practices.



Context: I'm building a flask app with Connexion to handle the REST routing and validation. Connexion loads an OpenAPI spec and maps to the handler methods. I've also submitted a PR to Connexion to enable $ref to use local relative file paths. Connexion loads the specs just fine.



The Issue: My issue is with the OpenAPI 3.0 specification itself. My spec files live in the directory /oas3/1.0beta/ and have relative filepaths, but the server base URL in the spec is /1.0beta/. The OpenAPI 3.0 specification states:




Relative references are resolved using the URLs defined in the Server Object as a Base URI.




Example



/oas3/1.0beta/spec.yaml:



openapi: 3.0.0
servers:
- description: Foo
url: https://foo.com/1.0beta/
info:
title: The Foo API!
version: "1.0beta"
paths:
/bar:
get:
summary: Gets a bar.
operationId: api_1_0beta.foo.bar_get
responses:
'200':
content:
application/json:
schema:
$ref: 'other_spec.yaml'


I want other_spec.yaml to resolve to /oas3/1.0beta/other_spec.yaml, but the OpenAPI specification (and therefore swagger tools/ui/etc) say that it resolves to /1.0beta/other_spec.yaml.



Is there a way/workaround to use a different base URI for relative $refs? Is it unreasonable to want different URL spaces for API paths and relative $refs?

  • No answer, but lots of sympathy. I'm also struggling mightily to get relative refs to work with connexion. I see your PR in the long PR queue. Did you work out a way to break up your schema? AFAICT, there's no way to break schemas up with relative paths in the current connexion release.
