Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

postman-collection-flatter

v1.0.0

Published

A tool for converting OpenAPI specifications into Postman collections with a clean and organized structure, reducing excessive nesting and using paths as request names.

Readme

OpenAPI to Postman Collection Processor

Un tool per convertire specifiche OpenAPI in collezioni Postman con una struttura pulita e organizzata, riducendo il nesting eccessivo e usando i path come nomi delle richieste.

🎯 Caratteristiche

  • Appiattimento automatico - Riduce la gerarchia di cartelle a massimo 2 livelli
  • 🏷️ Path come nomi - Usa il path dell'endpoint invece del summary (es. GET /feedback/manager/summary/{userId})
  • 📁 Struttura pulita - Organizza le richieste in modo logico eliminando il nesting eccessivo
  • 🚀 Facile da usare - Script standalone o integrabile nel tuo workflow

📋 Prerequisiti

npm install -g openapi-to-postman

Assicurati di avere Node.js installato nel tuo sistema.

🚀 Installazione

Clona il repository:

git clone https://github.com/tuo-username/openapi-postman-processor.git
cd openapi-postman-processor
npm install

💻 Utilizzo

Flusso completo: da OpenAPI a Postman Collection

  1. Converti la specifica OpenAPI in collezione Postman:
openapi2postmanv2 -s open-api.json -o postman-collection.json -p requestNameSource=URL
  1. Processa la collezione con lo script di appiattimento:
node collectionflatter.js

Il file processato sarà salvato come processed-postman-collection.json.

Parametri del comando di conversione

  • -s, --spec: File di input OpenAPI (es. open-api.json, api.yaml)
  • -o, --output: File di output della collezione Postman (es. postman-collection.json)
  • -p, --parameter: Parametri di configurazione (es. requestNameSource=URL)

Opzioni disponibili per -p

requestNameSource=URL      # Usa l'URL come nome della richiesta (consigliato)
requestNameSource=Fallback # Usa fallback se non disponibile

📖 Come funziona

Lo script collectionflatter.js esegue due operazioni principali sulla collezione Postman:

1. Rename delle richieste

Trasforma i nomi delle richieste usando il path con metodo HTTP:

GET /feedback/manager/summary/{userId}
POST /auth/login
DELETE /user/{id}

2. Flatten della struttura

Riduce la gerarchia di cartelle da una struttura eccessivamente nidificata:

feedback/
  └── manager/
      └── summary/
          └── {userId}/
              └── GET Milestone 3

A una struttura pulita a 2 livelli:

Feedback/
  ├── GET /feedback/manager/summary/{userId}
  ├── POST /feedback/create
  └── DELETE /feedback/{id}
