Form post support in generated clients

[deardooley]

Thank you for the great work on this project. I was implementing this on our api earlier today and I noticed a discrepancy in the swagger-ui and swagger-codegen projects. Support for defining and posting HTML forms was recently added to swagger-core and swagger-ui. I'm wondering if it was just a matter of time before post form support makes its way into swagger-codegen or if it is not on the roadmap. If there are not plans to add it anytime soon, I'm happy to send a pull request with the changes I made to support form submission in php and java. I'm afraid someone with other language expertise would need to check out the mustache templates in other languages. There's also the chance that I'm completely missing something conceptually. If so, please let me know. Thanks again for the great work.

Howdy,
Yes, the codegen will get out of sync with the swagger spec for certain languages. We recently added file upload support to the scala and objective-c clients, but it will take longer to propagate to other languages. So help supporting them would be great! Pull requests are welcome, and if tested, can be accepted fairly quickly

If the code is in github, I'm happy to take a shot at php and java. I might be able to take a stab at python and python3, but no promises.

You can find the templates here:

For instance:

Form post (form parameters) are still not supported in the Ruby client, right? (see #253)

Do you have any plans on it?

[fehguy]

yes we'd like to support it. we're working on a major update to the tools now

[xhh]

According to the generated Java SDK, client/ApiInvoker, formParams is only supported in "PUT" requests. It should also be supported in "POST" requests, right?

[xhh]

Form post support is added to Java codegen with #681.

Based on my knowledge, this is done for Java, Android, Scala, Ruby, ObjC, Perl, Python, PHP, C#.

And what would it be missing for? :)

[wing328]

Well I can't confirm for C++ (Tizen and Qt5)

Most generators have proper support for form parameters. Closing this.
