Utility Libraries
Beyond the three main libraries (openapi-backend, openapi-client-axios, openapicmd), the openapi-stack project maintains a set of small, focused utility libraries. They power the rest of the stack internally and are also used directly by teams at GitHub, SAP, Prisma, Zitadel, Mojaloop and many others.
| Library | What it does | Weekly downloads |
|---|---|---|
dereference-json-schema | Fast, in-memory dereferencing of $ref pointers in OpenAPI / JSON Schema documents. | ~240k |
mock-json-schema | Generate mock objects from JSON Schema definitions or OpenAPI examples. | ~70k |
glob-json-path | Glob-style matching for JSON paths. Pull a slice out of a deeply nested object by pattern. | ~5k |
All three are MIT-licensed, framework-agnostic, and ship with TypeScript types out of the box.
