Issue: Adding Automated Swagger Documentation Generation

Description

I would like to propose the addition of automated Swagger documentation generation when generating a module via the CLI in our Node.js MongoDB project generator and management tool.

Problem

Currently, our tool provides efficient module generation, but it lacks automated Swagger documentation. This feature is crucial for improving the usability and adoption of our project by making API documentation more accessible and developer-friendly.

Proposed Solution

We should integrate a Swagger documentation generation process into our CLI tool. This would involve automatically creating Swagger/OpenAPI documentation for each module created using the CLI. This documentation should include information about the routes, parameters, and responses for the generated module.

Benefits

  1. Improved Developer Experience: Automated Swagger documentation will help developers understand and use our tool more effectively.
  2. Increased Adoption: Clear and accessible API documentation is a key factor in attracting users and contributors.
  3. Maintenance Ease: Having up-to-date API documentation will simplify future maintenance and updates.

Tasks

  • [ ] Research and select a Swagger documentation generation tool/library that fits our project's needs.
  • [ ] Integrate the selected tool/library into the CLI module generation process.
  • [ ] Ensure the generated documentation is up-to-date and accurately reflects the generated module.
  • [ ] Update the project's README and documentation to include information about the new feature.
  • [ ] Test the feature thoroughly to ensure it works as expected.
  • [ ] Document how other developers can use this feature in their projects.

Additional Information

  • This enhancement aligns with our goal of providing a comprehensive and user-friendly development experience.
  • We should make this feature customizable, allowing users to configure aspects of the generated Swagger documentation.

Let's discuss the feasibility and implementation details of this feature.
