Generate Document

OpenApi specifications are very helpful to document APIs. However, it is not really easy to read and understand the YAML or JSON file. It would be nice if you could read the specification as a PDF document.

There are different tools that can generate documents based on the OpenApi specification.

RapiPDF is one of these tools that transforms the OpenApi specification into a PDF document. If the specification is in a public GitHub repository, the PDF can be created directly through the RapiPDF website by providing the GitHub raw link to the specification. However, it is also possible to host RapiPDF locally and use it in this way.

OpenAPI Generator is another tool. It cannot generate PDFs, but it offers the possibility to generate the documentation in many other formats such as asciidoc, html, and markdown. With the OpenAPI Generator, it is possible to generate clients and servers in many programming languages and frameworks.
