create-model¶

Description¶

Adds a new Model resource to an existing RestApi resource.

Synopsis¶

  create-model
--rest-api-id <value>
--name <value>
[--description <value>]
[--schema <value>]
--content-type <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--rest-api-id (string)

The RestApi identifier under which the Model will be created.

--name (string)

The name of the model. Must be alphanumeric.

--description (string)

The description of the model.

--schema (string)

The schema for the model. For application/json models, this should be JSON schema draft 4 model.

--content-type (string)

The content-type for the model.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

To create a model for an API

Command:

aws apigateway create-model --rest-api-id 1234123412 --name 'firstModel' --description 'The First Model' --content-type 'application/json'  --schema '{ "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", "title": "firstModel", "type": "object", "properties": { "firstProperty" : { "type": "object", "properties": { "key": { "type": "string" } } } } }'

Output:

{
    "contentType": "application/json",
    "description": "The First Model",
    "name": "firstModel",
    "id": "2rzg0l",
    "schema": "{ \"$schema\": \"http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#\", \"title\": \"firstModel\", \"type\": \"object\", \"properties\": { \"firstProperty\" : { \"type\": \"object\", \"properties\": { \"key\": { \"type\": \"string\" } } } } }"
}

Output¶

id -> (string)

The identifier for the model resource.

name -> (string)

The name of the model. Must be an alphanumeric string.

description -> (string)

The description of the model.

schema -> (string)

The schema for the model. For application/json models, this should be JSON schema draft 4 model. Do not include “*/” characters in the description of any properties because such “*/” characters may be interpreted as the closing marker for comments in some languages, such as Java or JavaScript, causing the installation of your API’s SDK generated by API Gateway to fail.

contentType -> (string)
