Julia Swagger Markdown

Swagger Markdown allows you to generate swagger.json for API documentation from the julia source code. The package uses marco to process the markdown that contains an API endpoint's documentation. The markdowon needs to follow the paths described by the OpenAPI Specification (v3, v2), and in YAML format.

For more information about OpenAPI Specification, version 3, version 2.

The package is inspired by, and it uses the similar style as swagger-jsdoc.
