# Convert OData CSDL JSON or XML to OpenAPI 3.0.x or 3.1.0

This script converts an OData Version 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, or 4.01 [CSDL XML](http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata-csdl-xml/v4.01/odata-csdl-xml-v4.01.html) or [CSDL JSON](http://docs.oasis-open.org/odata/odata-csdl-json/v4.01/odata-csdl-json-v4.01.html) (`$metadata`) document into an [OpenAPI 3.0.x](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/master/versions/3.0.3.md) or [OpenAPI 3.1.0](https://github.com/OAI/OpenAPI-Specification/blob/master/versions/3.1.0.md) JSON document.

It's a pure JavaScript implementation, depending only on [`odata-csdl`](https://github.com/oasis-tcs/odata-csdl-schemas/tree/master/lib), which in turn depends on [`sax js`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/sax).

## Installation

To install globally type

```sh
npm install -g odata-openapi
```

## Usage

Assuming you installed the script globally, and your XML metadata file is `MyMetadata.xml`, then

```sh
odata-openapi3 MyMetadata.xml
```

will create `MyMetadata.openapi3.json` next to it.

Just type

```sh
odata-openapi3 -h
```

to get usage hints

```

## Supported Annotations

The mapping can be fine-tuned via [annotations](https://github.com/oasis-tcs/odata-openapi/blob/main/doc/Annotations.md) in the CSDL (`$metadata`) XML documents.
