Generate a data model from swagger spec

The toolkit allows for generating go native structures to serialize and validate a swagger compliant model definition.

The generated objects follow the specified validation rules, including extended format directives for strings and numbers.

Generated models support most Swagger 2.0 features, including polymorphism.

Generated models support most JSON-schema draft4 features, including AllOf, AdditionalProperties and AdditionalItems.

Usage

generate model -f {spec}
