Generate .NET Client from Swagger [closed]

Question

What tool can I use to generate a .NET Client to consume from a Swagger definition?

For example, I started trying NSwag Studio and I would like to be able to generate the code to look like the Repository classes I am used to create.

You can use the swagger-codegen tool from the swagger project. It produces C# files that use

• RestClient for the HTTP calls
• Newtonsoft.Json for json marshalling
• .NET DataContract for the models.

You can either download the cli app or use the online editor. The petstore example models look like this:

using System; using System.Text; using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Runtime.Serialization; using Newtonsoft.Json;  namespace IO.Swagger.Model {      /// <summary>     ///      /// </summary>     [DataContract]     public class Order {       /// <summary>       /// Gets or Sets Id       /// </summary>       [DataMember(Name="id", EmitDefaultValue=false)]       [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "id")]       public long? Id { get; set; }        /// <summary>       /// Gets or Sets PetId       /// </summary>       [DataMember(Name="petId", EmitDefaultValue=false)]       [JsonProperty(PropertyName = "petId")]       public long? PetId { get; set; }  .... snip .... }
