I got the same error when generating crystal client for stripe api. It seems like 2 get operations are interfering each other with required params.

Here's a minimal spec file that reproduces this error with latest master branch generating crystal client. The same spec works with v6.0.1.

It seems like this bug was introduced by #13117. @spacether

[spacether]

Thank you for reporting this bug @Erudition and @cyangle this is happening because DefaultCodegen is modifying the codegenProperty.baseName which is used used to store the schema property name from the spec in an unmodifed state. This line: https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/blame/master/modules/openapi-generator/src/main/java/org/openapitools/codegen/DefaultCodegen.java#L5080 is mutating the baseName so that the properties.vars have the names:

• scope[type]
• scope[user]

And the code in https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/pull/13117 is looking for unmodified baseNames. Also one is unable to run fromProperty to make a map from spec property name to current baseName because this baseName mutation happens outside of fromProperty, in fromParameter.

@wing328 why was that change made in https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/pull/8563? Can the code at that location be adjusted to modify another property instead of baseName, like name? If the baseName is not modified, these specs will run as-is.

It looks like this code that modifies baseName was originally added in: https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/pull/8563 [java native][dotnetcore] Implement QueryParameter deepObject style

[cyangle]

The implementation in #8563 probably doesn't work with nested json objects.

I think a model flattener is better than the current implementation.

[Erudition]

Just tried @cyangle 's workaround, it builds now! Alas, my generated code still has a thousand compile errors :(

[wing328]

Agreed that the baseName of the property shouldn't be updated.

@Reinhard-PTV (author of #8563), for the following line:

                                property.baseName = codegenParameter.baseName + "[" + entry.getKey() + "]";

ref: https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/pull/8563/files#diff-3a138675e8cb40943bcb00feb46edd6f6ee5c5306c29cc19f02c845a299c8658R4452

can we store the value in vendorExtensions (e.g. x-deep-object-name) instead?

[jawad-r3]

Guys, Is there any workaround to this? I need to generate some Apex clients for Stripe API.

Guys, Is there any workaround to this? I need to generate some Apex clients for Stripe API.

See the messages before yours and you will see that yes, there is a workaround, and yes, I tried it and it works.

But alas, we're still a long way from a usable Stripe API it seems. The generated code doesn't compile, and it's not trivial to fix, due to many remaining bugs in the Elm generator.

I fixed hundreds of errors and gave up - they just keep coming. Distinct items named exactly the same, lists not closed, parameters missing altogether because their type is unsupported... the generator may be good as-is for simple APIs, but the Stripe API is too complex and uses too many OpenAPI features that are still broken in the Elm generator...
