API Definition Storage and API Coverage Improvements

Summary

We improved how OpenAPI definitions are uploaded, stored, parsed, and used across Hackgate.These changes make API definition handling more reliable, support versioned uploads, and improve API coverage analysis for both JSON and YAML OpenAPI files.

Fixed Filesystem Dependency

API definitions are no longer dependent on local server files.

Fixed YAML Parsing Issues

YAML OpenAPI files are now handled correctly by converting them before parsing.

Versioning Support for API Definitions

Each site can now have multiple uploaded API definition versions.For example:
  • Version 1
  • Version 2
  • Version 3
  • Version 4
When a new API definition is uploaded, the system automatically assigns the next version number.Only one version is marked as active at a time. The latest uploaded file becomes the active version by default.

Added Support for JSON and YAML OpenAPI Files

OpenAPI definitions can now be processed more reliably whether they are uploaded as JSON or YAML.Supported formats include:
  • .json
  • .yaml
  • .yml
YAML files are converted internally before being parsed, which avoids compatibility issues with OpenAPI parser versions that expect JSON input.
