✨ Gilly
Generate Gleam SDKs from OpenAPI specifications.
Gilly is in early development:
- many features from the OpenAPI specification are not yet supported
- for now, generated code is not guaranteed not to break between Gilly releases
Feedback and contributions are very welcome!
Usage
CLI
Add Gilly as a dev dependency in your gleam.toml:
gleam add gilly --dev
Then, you can run Gilly from the command line:
gleam run -m gilly -- <path_to_openapi_spec.json> --output <output_path.gleam>
That’s it! You can use the generated SDK in your Gleam projects along with your favorite HTTP client to call the API.
Any HTTP client that uses gleam/http types should be compatible with the Gilly generated client. This includes:
See the examples for fully featured use cases.
Library
Gilly can also be used as a library directly. Please refer to the HexDocs for more details.

Development
gleam run # Run the project
gleam test # Run the tests
This project relies on birdie snapshots for testing. You can update them by running:
gleam run -m birdie
Releases
Releases are handled with goreleaser and GitHub Actions.
To dry-run a release, you can use:
goreleaser release --snapshot --skip=publish --clean
