flask-restful VS prism

When it comes to Flask, in particular, there’re plenty of choices. And in fairness, not all frameworks are created equal. You’ve got flasgger, restx (successor of flask-restplus), flask-RESTful, and flask-smorest, to mention a few. How do you choose among those???

This has talked about in a similar matter: https://github.com/flask-restful/flask-restful/issues/221. However I'm still adamant about just using flask for exception handling. Unless I missed something,I'm having a hard time figuring out how to accomplish this in hopes to get rid of the string concatenation that flask_restful applies to the error message.

Considering the extension you've mentioned explicitly, the author of it has provided an explanation as to why he is not longer putting in any work, you can read about it here.

Since the OpenAPI can effectively describe our resources, we can reuse it to generate a dummy server that can be later used for development and testing purposes without bootstrapping any actual services. There some tools available that can help us with this task, such as Prism, OpenAPI Mock, OpenAPI Backend and the MSW library we have already seen.

I use https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism with x-faker properties in my OpenAPI specs to mock APIs with dynamic content.

Haven't tried it yet, but discovered https://microcks.io/ yesterday. Otherwise https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism is pretty good

Prism does more than mocking; You can also use it to inspect any discrepancies between your API implementation and the API spec. You can find out more on their GitHub page:https://github.com/stoplightio/prism

use a mock API server that can read openapi spec (e.g. Prism)

prism

What about skipping the DB all together and using OpenAPI w/ a Mock Server for local development https://openapi.tools/#mock personally like https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism

Pretty simple to run [prism](https://github.com/stoplightio/prism) locally for free.
