Roadmap

This page collects likely future directions for OAPIEX. It is not a strict release plan, but it is the current list of areas that would add the most value.

Documentation Platform Support

ReadMe Improvements

  • broader coverage for edge-case ReadMe layouts
  • better handling for deeply nested request schemas
  • stronger extraction of examples, response variants, and authentication metadata

Apidog Support

  • detect and parse API reference pages generated by Apidog
  • extract request and response examples from Apidog-specific page structures
  • normalize Apidog docs into the same raw and OpenAPI output shapes already supported for ReadMe
  • support crawl flows across Apidog navigation structures

Postman Documentation Support

  • parse Postman public documentation pages and collections published as docs sites
  • extract endpoint descriptions, parameters, headers, request bodies, and example responses
  • map Postman docs concepts into stable OpenAPI operations
  • support multi-page crawls for larger Postman documentation hubs

Output Quality

  • improve schema inference for partial or collapsed examples
  • preserve more response metadata such as content types and example variants
  • infer security schemes and authentication requirements when the docs expose them
  • reduce placeholder or low-confidence operations even further

Programmatic API

  • stabilize the public library export surface for import { ... } from 'oapiex'
  • expose higher-level helpers for one-call extraction and transformation
  • publish richer TypeScript types for extracted operations and OpenAPI output
  • support configurable logging hooks for embedding OAPIEX in other tools

CLI And Config

  • add first-class config for inclusion and exclusion rules during crawl
  • support custom output paths and file naming strategies
  • add machine-readable summary output for CI pipelines
  • expand debug surfaces beyond the current SDK HTTP controls (client.debug(level) and init-time debugLevel)

Performance And Reliability

  • improve concurrency controls for large crawls
  • add smarter retry behavior for flaky remote docs sites
  • cache repeated page loads during iterative extraction work
  • improve memory use when processing large documentation trees

Developer Experience

  • publish more fixtures and regression tests for real-world documentation sites
  • add end-to-end examples for package usage inside Node scripts
  • document supported doc-platform behaviors and known limitations more explicitly
  • provide migration notes as support expands beyond ReadMe

Notes

  • Apidog support and Postman docs support are both strong candidates for future expansion.
  • The roadmap is intentionally flexible and may change based on user demand and implementation cost.
