Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I have to take the same yaml file and produce the client and server endpoints and create a straight through spring boot service. So if I call get /getPet against the SB service, it will then call /getPet. So server endpoints -> @Controller -> @Service -> client resttemplate.

It is quite tedious to setup the @Service layer to accept the call from the @Controller to in turn call the Resttemplate later.

Describe the solution you'd like

OpenAPITools already generates the server and client code from a single Yaml file. It would be great if it could (if from same yaml file) generate the tie up code as well thus creating a straight through service.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Alternative now is to roll up sleeve and hook up 100 endpoints.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the existing Spring Boot server and client generation paths, then determine how one OpenAPI YAML file could produce Controller-to-Service-to-RestTemplate wiring for every endpoint. Done means the generated service forwards calls from generated server endpoints to the generated client without manual hookup.
