+1 for the proposal. In terms of the format, the current solution is simple
enough. But I propose to use a trimmed openAPI's format directly. It won't
add much cost as we can just take the minimum fields we want. But it opens
a window to extend it in the future. For example, it is easier if we want
to include operationID, or adding feature flags, or adding parameters. Here
is an example:
{
"resources": [
{
"/v1/{prefix}/namespaces":
{
"GET": {
"description": "List all namespaces"
}
},
{
"POST": {
"description": "Create a new namespace"
}
}
},
{
"path2": {}
}
...
]
}
