For use correctly this package you must pass at least two argument: an input (inputhPath or inputUrl) & an output at create-models command.

Example:

 $ create-models -u https://generator.swagger.io/api/swagger.json -o ./models

Script generate a new folder named as the last string of the output parameter. Into this folder, generate two type of files: baseModel and Model.

• models 🗂
  • baseModels 🗂
    • BaseJack 📃
    • BaseSusy 📃
    • BaseLarry 📃
