Building and maintaining APIs can be exhausting. Between schema changes, breaking updates, and unexpected payload mismatches, things constantly break in production. That is why I built and open-sourced Repairo—a free, automated tool designed to detect and auto-repair API issues before they cause downstream failures.
Why I Built Repairo
Modern microservices architectures rely heavily on APIs communicating seamlessly. However, minor changes in data contracts often result in unhandled exceptions or failed requests. Instead of manually writing patches or dealing with late-night debugging sessions, Repairo intercepts failing requests, analyzes the schema divergence, and applies safe auto-corrections on the fly.
Key Features
- Automated Schema Healing: Detects discrepancies in incoming/outgoing payloads and maps them to expected types.
- Zero-Downtime Patching: Keeps services running smoothly without requiring an immediate manual deployment for minor drift issues.
- Lightweight & Extensible: Built to integrate easily into existing API gateways and middleware pipelines.
Get Started
The project is completely open source. You can check out the repository, inspect the code, or contribute over at the [Repairo GitHub Repository] https://github.com/adityacs50-lab/Repairo.
Contributions, feature requests, and feedback are always welcome!
