CONFIG OPTIONS

These options may be applied as additional-properties (cli) or configOptions (plugins). Refer to configuration docs for more details.

Option	Description	Values	Default
allowUnicodeIdentifiers	boolean, toggles whether unicode identifiers are allowed in names or not, default is false		false
disallowAdditionalPropertiesIfNotPresent	If false, the 'additionalProperties' implementation (set to true by default) is compliant with the OAS and JSON schema specifications. If true (default), keep the old (incorrect) behaviour that 'additionalProperties' is set to false by default.	false The 'additionalProperties' implementation is compliant with the OAS and JSON schema specifications. true Keep the old (incorrect) behaviour that 'additionalProperties' is set to false by default.	true
ensureUniqueParams	Whether to ensure parameter names are unique in an operation (rename parameters that are not).		true
enumUnknownDefaultCase	If the server adds new enum cases, that are unknown by an old spec/client, the client will fail to parse the network response.With this option enabled, each enum will have a new case, 'unknown_default_open_api', so that when the server sends an enum case that is not known by the client/spec, they can safely fallback to this case.	false No changes to the enum's are made, this is the default option. true With this option enabled, each enum will have a new case, 'unknown_default_open_api', so that when the enum case sent by the server is not known by the client/spec, can safely be decoded to this case.	false
invokerPackage	The main namespace to use for all classes. e.g. Yay.Pets		null
legacyDiscriminatorBehavior	Set to false for generators with better support for discriminators. (Python, Java, Go, PowerShell, C# have this enabled by default).	true The mapping in the discriminator includes descendent schemas that allOf inherit from self and the discriminator mapping schemas in the OAS document. false The mapping in the discriminator includes any descendent schemas that allOf inherit from self, any oneOf schemas, any anyOf schemas, any x-discriminator-values, and the discriminator mapping schemas in the OAS document AND Codegen validates that oneOf and anyOf schemas contain the required discriminator and throws an error if the discriminator is missing.	true
licenseHeader	The license header to prepend to the top of all source files.		null
packageName	Elixir package name (convention: lowercase).		null
prependFormOrBodyParameters	Add form or body parameters to the beginning of the parameter list.		false
sortModelPropertiesByRequiredFlag	Sort model properties to place required parameters before optional parameters.		true
sortParamsByRequiredFlag	Sort method arguments to place required parameters before optional parameters.		true
