Generating the documentation file

Make sure that in src/App/src/OpenAPI.php, on the line with #[OA\Server the value of url is set to the of URL of your instance of Dotkernel API.

Using your terminal, move to the root directory of your project.

Dotkernel API stores the OpenAPI attributes in the src directory, so that's the path we will use for generating the static documentation file.

Methods of generating documentation file

Without saving it to a file

./vendor/bin/openapi ./src

This will output the generated content to the terminal.

Place it in a custom location

./vendor/bin/openapi ./src --output public/openapi.yaml

This will place the generated file openapi.yaml in the public directory.

Specify OpenAPI version

Supported OpenAPI versions are 3.0.0 and 3.1.0, 3.0.0 being the default version.

The below command will specify both the output location and the OpenAPI version:

./vendor/bin/openapi ./src --version 3.1.0

Specify output file format

Supported file formats are yaml and json, yaml being the default format.

The below command will specify the output location and zircote/swagger-php will determine the file format:

./vendor/bin/openapi ./src --output public/openapi.json

Or be specific about the format by appending the --format argument:

./vendor/bin/openapi ./src --output public/openapi.json --format json

These will place the generated file openapi.json in the public directory.
