Description
🐛 Bug Report:
docker version of openapi-generator-cli doesn't work with configuration files.
Steps to Reproduce
despite the documentation, following doesn't work:
openapitools.json:
{
"$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator-cli/refs/heads/master/apps/generator-cli/src/config.schema.json",
"spaces": 2,
"generator-cli": {
"version": "7.12.0",
"generators": {
"v3.0": {
"inputSpec": "https://touhoudb.com/swagger/v1/swagger.json",
"generatorName": "typescript-fetch",
"output": "#{cwd}/client"
}
}
}
}
podman run --rm -v $PWD:/local:z openapitools/openapi-generator-cli generate
[error] Required option '-i' is missing
even if i explicitly pass in config file, it doesn't read config file despite "generatorName": "typescript-fetch",
podman run --rm -v $PWD:/local:z openapitools/openapi-generator-cli generate --config /local/openapitools.json
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException: generator name must be specified
