First, download the petstore.json example file:
| Platform | Command |
|---|---|
| PowerShell | iwr https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Azure/autorest/master/Samples/petstore/petstore.json -o petstore.json |
| Linux/OS X | curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Azure/autorest/master/Samples/petstore/petstore.json |
Next, generate the client:
# generate the client
> autorest -Input petstore.json -CodeGenerator CSharp -OutputDirectory CSharp_PetStore -Namespace PetStore
The Microsoft.Rest.ClientRuntime.2.2.0 nuget package is required to compile the generated code.
# show what got generated:
> ls CSharp_PetStore -r
