It automatically generates API client libraries (SDKs), server stubs, and API documentation from OpenAPI specifications in versions 2.0 and 3.0. The package syncs daily with the upstream Maven repository to stay current with the latest generator releases.\n\nTo use it, you install the package via pip and run openapi-generator-cli commands from your terminal. The tool requires Java (JDK 11 or later) to be installed and available on your system PATH, since the underlying generator is Java-based. Alternatively, you can install the optional jdk4py extra to avoid managing a separate Java installation. Once installed, you can invoke the CLI to parse OpenAPI specs and generate code in various target languages and frameworks.","worth_installing":"Yes. The package is actively maintained, has no Python dependencies (low friction), carries a permissive Apache 2.0 license, and addresses a real workflow need\u2014code generation from API specs. The only prerequisite is Java on your PATH, which is documented. Install it if you work with OpenAPI specs and want to automate SDK or stub generation."},"id":"openapi-generator-cli","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/openapi-generator-cli","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/openapi-generator-cli.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/openapi-generator-cli/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-21","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"openapi-generator-cli","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"CLI for openapi generator"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":756151,"position":5139,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"7.24.0"}
