Swagger Editor lets you edit API specifications in YAML inside your browser and to preview documentations in real time. Valid Swagger JSON descriptions can then be generated and used with the full Swagger tooling (code generation, documentation, etc).

To understand how it works, you should try the live demo!

YAML became a first-class citizen as part of the Swagger 2.0 working group process. Documenation for the YAML syntax will become part of the documentation of the Swagger 2.0 spec.

You can import an existing YAML spec by using the import query parameter. For example:

http://editor.swagger.wordnik.com/?import=http://generator.wordnik.com/online/api/swagger.yaml

Make sure you have all dependencies

ruby --version
node --version
compass --version
bower --version
grunt --version

If you don't have any of the dependencies, install them from their websites:

• NodeJS
• Ruby
• Compass
• Bower
• Grunt

git clone git@github.com:wordnik/swagger-editor.git
cd swagger-editor
npm install
bower install
grunt serve

This will open a browser window running current development version.

To build the project just run:

$ grunt build

This will build a new version of the web app, ready for production in /dist folder

To copy everything in /dist folder to gh-pages branch and push it to github, just run:

$ grunt ship

Please do not touch gh-pages branch manually!
