proto2schema

Compiles Protocol Buffer IDL to JSON Schema definitions.

Usage

You can use proto2schema as a command line tool, or as a function in node.

The CLI can output JSON or YAML (e.g. for Swagger). If you specify a protobuf message name along with a file, it will output just that message and all dependencies. Otherwise, it will output all messages.

$ npm install proto2schema -g
$ proto2schema --help

  Usage: cli [options] <files...>

  Options:

    -h, --help             output usage information
    -V, --version          output the version number
    -m, --model [model]    compile given model, default all
    -f, --format [format]  output format: json or yaml [json]

In node, proto2schema exports a single function that returns an object with the JSON Schema model.

var compile = require('proto2schema');

var all = compile('models.proto');
var single = compile('models.proto', 'MyModel');
