Connexion: Maintenance status of this project?

[languitar]

I am seeing a lot of issues pile up here and also the latest commit appeared half a year ago. Can someone clarify what the maintenance status of this project is? Does connexion still play a role for Zalando and will continue to be maintained?

[ddurham2]

I too am concerned. Anyone aware of a more active fork?

[aramcap]

I'm interested too.

EDIT:

I am also interested.

Perhaps they have switched to openapi-generator. See companies / projects-using-openapi-generator and then search for Zalando.

[ddurham2]

I've never cared for the openapi-generator (and others) because it generates server stubs, but if you ever modify your spec and need to generate the server code again, you basically have to start over.. at least that seems to be the case. Correct me if I'm wrong. It's fine if you're openapi spec is never going to change, but during developement, it's not helpful.

[languitar]

I any case, two openapi generator modules for python result in connexion as the used framework.

Maybe this is a possible alternative: https://github.com/p1c2u/openapi-core
I'm using connexion in a bigger business project and I thought using software maintained by a big company like Zalando may be a future proof solution. Seems like I've been proven wrong.

While gathering alternatives to Connexion: falcon-oas (which uses python-oas)

falcon-oas is based on Falcon, so this is not a Flask-based solution. But IMHO falcon-oas is well-written and well-tested. It's not feature-complete though to be honest. I've used it quite a bit and it has worked well for me so far. To point out an advantage of Falcon/falcon-oas compared to Connexion/Flask: It supports dependency injection without any tricks or a library like flask-injector.
