Support oneOf

[nickretallack]

I used a oneOf and it rendered as an empty object. It seems to be ignored right now.

[webron]

oneOf is not supported by the Swagger specification.

[nickretallack]

Not even in the part where it delegates to jsonschema?

[webron]

Not anywhere. We don't delegate to JSON Schema. The spec is very specific about it. We use an extended subset of JSON Schema, and explicitly don't support oneOf.

[hansbeld]

Unfortunately no. It uses a subset of the draft-4.
You could adapt the swagger-client.js by adding an extra model type and resolve it accordingly.

[willshulman]

Just curious. Why was oneOf explicitly not supported?

This way something like defining a tree structure is not possible ..... Really bad news (Thought Swagger is good, but - oh, well ....)

E.g.

    "ModelFolder": {
        "properties": {
            "id": {
                "type": "number",
                "format": "integer"
            },
            "parentId": {
                "type": "number",
                "format": "integer"
            },
            "name": {
                "type": "string"
            },
            "itemType": {
                "type": "string"
            },
            "children": {
                "type": "array",
                "items": {
                    "anyOf":[
                        { "$ref": "#/definitions/ModelFolder"  },
                        { "$ref": "#/definitions/Model" }
                    ]
                }
            }
        },
    "Model": {
        "properties": {
            "id": {
                "type": "number",
                "format": "integer"
            },
            "parentId": {
                "type": "number",
                "format": "integer"
            },
            "name": {
                "type": "string"
            },
            "itemType": {
                "type": "string"
            }
        }

is not possible ?!?!?!?

I don't get it (Please be more pragmatic. But maybe its technically simply not doable in the Swagger implementation).

[webron]

It is doable, but please send your question to the google group. It has nothing to do with the UI.
