[Gradle Plugin]: openApiValidate - how to validate multiple yaml files ?

[rolandg333]

Description

i can validate a single .yaml file using

openApiValidate {
inputSpec = 'file.yaml'
}

But my project has several .yaml files.
I would like to validate them all before packing them up into a .zip artifact on a build step.

How ?

openapi-generator version

id 'org.openapi.generator' version '4.2.1'

Hey. Sorry, just getting caught up on a huge backlog of issues/questions that we accrued over the holidays.

You've probably already figured this one out, but I wanted to comment for anyone else who might find your question.

task validateGoodSpec(type: org.openapitools.generator.gradle.plugin.tasks.ValidateTask){
    inputSpec = "$rootDir/petstore-v3.0.yaml".toString()
}

task validateBadSpec(type: org.openapitools.generator.gradle.plugin.tasks.ValidateTask){
    inputSpec = "$rootDir/petstore-v3.0-invalid.yaml".toString()
}

task validateSpecs(dependsOn: ['validateGoodSpec', 'validateBadSpec'])

The openApiValidate definition you've shown in your description is a project extension which has an identical task. All tasks in the plugin can be defined explicitly as I've done above. There are multiple examples in the local-spec sample.

If there's interest, we can add the example to our readme or sample script. I'm hesitant to do this because we already have examples of customizing GenerateTask, and I think it'll add little value and possibly make the readme harder to follow if each project extension includes an example of how to extend the underlying task. In that regard, I hope you don't mind that I'll close the issue?

I decided to add docs in #5167. I figured if you had the question, others probably do as well.
