Framework-agnostic Connexion #380
Comments
Hi @garbas , Thank you for the feedback we really appreciate it. About making Connexion more framework agnostic, Yes. I was discussing about it some time ago with @jmcs and this is something that we are interested in working on. That is something that I personally would like to be involved with, so I would be willing to join you in making this idea move forward. Connexion cold evolve to be like a library/layer over other frameworks (Tornado/Django/etc). We can setup some time to sit in person as well, that would be cool! 😃 |
@rafaelcaricio awesome! I will ping you on twitter to meet in person. I expect what we will come up with we will post here (or in additional PR) for further discussion to not exclude others. |
Hi all, thanks @garbas for starting this. What I would be interested in is too see if there's a layer between Connexion and Swagger that can be reused as a lib without making any assumptions on how its actually used in a web framework (spec=>code or code=>spec, how it's linked to views etc) (a little bit like bravado-core but specific to the server-side) I started to work on this on my side but I'd love to see if we can share some stuff |
@garbas @rafaelcaricio I would also be happy to join any Berlin meeting 😄 |
It would be awesome! I'm currently using connexion in a personal project and after writing some code I realized that it's very flask-specific while frameworks such as tornado and django have a few libraries for open API initiative. Thanks for starting this thread @garbas. Please let me know if I can help. |

Hello guys and @garbas, I really want to contribute to this issue. I wrote a Swagger lib that do same task as connexion (but with much less features), but I did it framework agnostic. https://github.com/dutradda/swaggerit With the experience that I learned, I think I will be useful to contribute. Are you working on a branch for it? |
This is great! I really like Connexion. However, I prefer using an HTTP library like Falcon or which is very minimal compared to Flask, and seems more suited towards RESTful APIs. I do suggest keeping it opinionated and simple, as it is now - it is a joy to develop API servers with. @dutradda's project is a great first step in the direction of a Falcon+Swagger framework, I especially liked the SQLAlchemy integration. Starred, will also offer my time to support this project :) |
@advance512 Falcon looks great, but I haven't used it yet. Do you want to contribute on integrating Connexion with Falcon? The PR #386 is a first step in extracting the calls to the framework (like Flask), it should be straight forward to create a |
@hjacobs I want to integrate the connexion with aiohttp. The framework interface is ready to inherit from? |
@dutradda The interface is not defined yet. This was our first iteration towards having this definition of what should go there. If you start integrating with some other framework like Falcon/aiohttp then you will get insights on what is missing in the interface and can suggest the changes you think makes sense. We are open for proposals. The PR #386 still needs some work. |
OK @rafaelcaricio, I will start my implementation and suggests to #386 |
Any updates in this direction? |
Hi there, |
Closing in favor of #1489. |
Hi,
First thank you for a great work you did, at Mozilla Release Engineering team we started using it few months ago and it proved to be the step into the right direction.
Currently Connexion is very flask specific which worked ok for initial work we are doing and since majority of our team is familiar with flask. But talking to others at Mozilla they like the idea but would like to use their existing framework. You think it would be worthwhile having Connexion being a cross framework utility, with framework specific helpers/layers.
I was wondering if you would be interesting into such contribution? Of course I would consider doing (and later helping maintain it) the majority of the work, since I'm proposing it.
I guess first step could be making Connexion framework agnostic. Since this would mainly involve re-organization of the code, we might also meet in person (I'm based in Berlin).
