Big announcements

In case you've missed it, we've got a few big announcements as maintainers of oapi-codegen which we'd recommend you read in more depth.

• oapi-codegen is moving to its own org
  • This is from release v2.3.0, but will be enacted likely before you get a chance to read these release notes, as we want to migrate everything to the same org ASAP
• Creating a more sustainable model for oapi-codegen in the future
  • Please consider looking at sponsoring the maintenance that we do on the project.

We'd also like to thank our sponsors for this release:

🔊 Notable features

The v2.2.0 release was largely focussed on the following big changes, alongside a number of other bug fixes.

Generate a pure Go 1.22+ net/http server

With Go 1.22+'s enhanced routing, it's now easier than ever to be able to write a pure-Go HTTP service, and thanks to a contribution from @thedadams we now have a std-http-server, further documented in the Supported Servers section in the README.

NOTE

Not seeing this working, i.e. seeing a 404 page not found? Make sure that the go directive in your project's go.mod is updated!

In the future we're going to see if we can preemptively warn you if you're not quite set up correctly.

Documentation overhaul

A significant undertaking in this release was to rewrite pretty much every line of documentation we had, as well as introducing a number of additional examples and test cases.

We're excited to hear your feedback on the new structure of the README, the additional docs added, and whether there are any additional examples that may be of use.

JSON Schema configuration

In the spirit of documentation, we now also have a JSON schema which can be found further documented in the Usage section in the README.

This not only gives a separate definition of fields and their meaning, but it can be used with IDEs for autocompletion and validation, allowing for a much better Developer Experience.

kin-openapi upgrade

A few big upgrades have come in kin-openapi, which we use for the underlying OpenAPI parsing and validation, which included a significant breaking change that meant that consumers of oapi-codegen couldn't upgrade the kin-openapi version until we had made changes in oapi-codegen.

This has additionally been set up as an FAQ as it's one we commonly get.
