README

Appwrite SDK generator is a PHP library for auto-generating SDK libraries for multiple languages and platforms.

The SDK Generator uses predefined language settings as Twig templates to generate codebases based on different API specs.

Currently, the only spec supported is Swagger 2.0, but we intend to add support for more specifications in the near future. This generator is still lacking support for any definition/model specs.

Getting Started

Install using composer:

CLI

composer update --ignore-platform-reqs --optimize-autoloader

Docker (UNIX)

docker run --rm --interactive --tty --volume "$(pwd)":/app composer install --ignore-platform-reqs

Docker (Windows)

docker run --rm --interactive --tty --volume "%cd%":/app composer install --ignore-platform-reqs

Create language and SDK instances and generate code to target directory.

<?php

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Appwrite\Spec\Swagger2;
use Appwrite\SDK\SDK;
use Appwrite\SDK\Language\PHP;

// Read API specification file (Swagger 2) and create spec instance
$version = '1.9.x';
$platform = 'server';
$spec = new Swagger2(file_get_contents("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/appwrite/specs/main/specs/{$version}/swagger2-{$version}-{$platform}.json"));

// Create language instance
$lang = new PHP();

$lang // Set language or platform specific options
    ->setComposerPackage('my-api')
    ->setComposerVendor('my-company')
;

// Create the SDK object with the language and spec instances
$sdk  = new SDK($lang, $spec);

$sdk
    ->setLogo('https://appwrite.io/v1/images/console.png')
    ->setLicenseContent('License content here.')
    ->setVersion('v1.1.0')
;

$sdk->generate(__DIR__ . '/examples/php'); // Generate source code

For generated artifacts that do not need an API specification, use StaticSpec:

<?php

require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

use Appwrite\Spec\StaticSpec;
use Appwrite\SDK\SDK;
use Appwrite\SDK\Language\AgentSkills;

$spec = new StaticSpec(
    title: 'Appwrite',
    description: 'Appwrite backend as a service',
    version: '1.9.x',
    licenseName: 'BSD-3-Clause',
    licenseURL: 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/appwrite/appwrite/master/LICENSE',
);

$sdk = new SDK(new AgentSkills(), $spec);

$sdk
    ->setName('Appwrite')
    ->setVersion('1.9.x')
;

$sdk->generate(__DIR__ . '/examples/agent-skills');

Linting Twig Templates

This project uses djLint to lint Twig template files for syntax and common issues.

Note: Formatting is disabled as it breaks code generation syntax. Only linting is used.

Available command:

composer lint-twig  # Check for linting errors

Requires uv to be installed. Configuration is in pyproject.toml. The linter runs automatically on pull requests via GitHub Actions.

Supported Specs

• Swagger 2
• OpenAPI 3 (Not Ready)
• RAML 1.0 (Not Ready)
• RAML 0.8 (Not Ready)
• Postman 2.0 (Not Ready)
• Postman 1.0 (Not Ready)
• API Blueprint 1A (Not Ready)

Generated SDKs and Artifacts

The primary generation targets are defined in example.php. Run it without arguments to generate every target with the default console platform spec, or pass a target and optional platform to generate one SDK:

php example.php
php example.php <target>
php example.php <target> <platform>

<platform> can be console, client, or server. If omitted, it defaults to console.

Examples:

php example.php web client
php example.php node server
php example.php cli console
php example.php agent-skills

Client SDKs

Server SDKs
