Automatically generate Postman collection from Apipie docs

I often found myself having to create a Postman collection from our API so it's easier to test between the members of the team. But each time the collection ends up incomplete and it's a hassle to keep up to date.

For that reason, I created a new Ruby gem (Github) that automatically generates a Postman collection with all the tested endpoints covered with Apipie.

How to use it

The setup & usage are pretty easy:

• add the gem to your :development, :test group in the Gemfile
• generate a Postman API key; details here
• add an initializer file to config/initializers/apipie_postman.rb:

ApipiePostman.configure do |config|
  config.postman_api_key = 'your_postman_api_key'
  config.postman_collection_name = 'Your collection name'
  config.base_url = 'localhost:3000' # the base_url that you want in your postman collection
end

• run bundle exec apipie-postman - this will create the apipie_postman.rake file
• run bundle exec rake apipie_postman to run the task and generate docs
