There was a problem hiding this comment.
I don't see any required blocks in the objects coming back, is that right that every field may be optional?

@jamietanna it is not documented, and it is hard to say for sure for some of the fields. IDs should be required for sure |

This pull request adds OpenAPI specification for the Hacker News API, as documented in the README file. This OpenAPI specification can be used to serve the documentation on the website, to generate client code and to create various API mocks for the integration tests.
In fact, I am currently doing the latter with WireMock and its SaaS edition WireMock Cloud, to demonstrate the templates feature we rolled out in WireMock a while ago. Initially I created the specification for just one request, but then decided that it would be nice to finalize it and to contribute back to the project
I used the most recent version of the specification
Feedback is welcome!
