             Summary: Generate (and use) OpenAPI spec for v2 APIs
                 Key: SOLR-16346
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-16346
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
          Components: v2 API
    Affects Versions: main (10.0)
            Reporter: Jason Gerlowski


An integration with [OpenAPI|https://www.openapis.org/] and its tooling has a 
lot to offer Solr.  Once generated, an OpenAPI specification can be used to:
* [generate clients|https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator] for 
multiple programming languages
* power a web UI to document and help users craft API calls (e.g. 
[redoc|https://github.com/Redocly/redoc]
* [detect breaking API changes|https://github.com/Azure/openapi-diff] across 
releases.

Of course, these benefits are only useful if we take pains to document our API 
inputs and outputs (probably with annotations that live directly in our Java 
code).  But I think there's enough upside to be worth that trouble.

This ticket aims to cover integrating OpenAPI into our gradle build, so that a 
single task can be used to generate an OpenAPI spec.  (It might also make sense 
to use this ticket to cover generating client bindings for one or more 
languages.)
