.go files generated from swagger.yml

[m15ch4]

What is a common approach when building API Server from swagger spec file (usually swagger.yml). Command swagger generate server... generates a bunch of .go files. Where those generated .go files should be placed. Is a good approach to put them to /pkg/api/ ?

I'd recommend to keep them under /api/, in same subdirectory which contains swagger.yml - because it makes sense to consider both swagger.yml and generated files "a same thing" (at least if you're not going to manually change autogenerated files, which is bad practice anyway).

But if you will manually change autogenerated files, then, yeah, put them under either internal/ or pkg/.
