https://openapi-generator.tech/docs/generators/spring/#schema-support-feature 

From the documentation of the openapi generator used in A1PMS, AllOf is not supported for spring server generator. But it still generated objects without the use of extending the parent class. For example:

An extended object in the specification yaml:

Code Block
languageyml
themeMidnight
components:
  schemas:
    Policy:
      type: object
      properties:
        id:
          type: string
        name:
          type: string
    PolicyExtended:
      allOf:
        - $ref: '#/components/schemas/Policy'
        - type: object
          properties:
            description:
              type: string



Code Block
languagejava
themeMidnight
public class Policy {

  private String id;
  private String name;
...
}

public class PolicyExtended {

  private String id;
  private String name;
  private String description;
...
}



OpenAPI Required Properties

By default, all object properties are optional. You can specify the required properties in the required list:

  

Code Block
languageyml
themeMidnight
components: 
  schemas:
    Policy:
      type: object
      properties:
        id:
          type: string
        name:
          type: string
      required:
        - id

Having required parameters has only one effect of genereted code, the tool generates only one construcotr with only default parameters. So the implementer can use the setters and getters.

Code Block
languagejava
themeMidnight
  /**
   * Constructor with only required parameters
   */
  public Policy(String id, String name) {
    this.id= id;
  }

TODO and topic to follow

- Evaluate the necessity of optional fields: Determine if certain optional fields can be removed or if their use can be better documented to avoid dead data.
- Consider adopting more specific schemas for critical operations: This can improve both the documentation and the generated code quality. Leverage OpenAPI Features: Use OpenAPI's advanced features like `allOf`,
- Prepare for code adaptations: Implement patterns like Adapter/Builder/Transformer to handle translations between similar objects, facilitating easier maintenance and adaptation to specification changes.
- Regular compliance checks: Ensure regular checks against ORAN specifications to stay compliant and make necessary adjustments in a timely manner.
- Adopt Specific Schemas: Use specific schemas for different API operations to improve clarity and reduce the risk of errors.
- Implement Adapter Pattern: Use the Adapter pattern to manage differences between similar objects, ensuring compliance with ORAN specifications.
- Leverage OpenAPI Features: Use OpenAPI's advanced features like `allOf`, `oneOf`, `anyOf`, and discriminators to create flexible and reusable components.
