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-timedebugLevel)
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.
