Cornice has support for SPORE. SPORE is a way to describe your REST web services, as WSDL is for WS-* services. This allows to ease the creation of generic SPORE clients, which are able to consume any REST API with a SPORE endpoint.
Here is how you can let cornice describe your web service for you:
from cornice.ext.spore import generate_spore_description
from cornice.service import Service, get_services
spore = Service('spore', path='/spore', renderer='jsonp')
@spore.get()
def get_spore(request):
services = get_services()
return generate_spore_description(services, 'Service name', request.application_url, '1.0')
And you’ll get a definition of your service, in SPORE, available at /spore.
Of course, you can use it to do other things, like generating the file locally and exporting it wherever it makes sense to you, etc.
