DodaTech Updated 2026-06-28 1 min read

In this tutorial, you'll learn about Versioning Tools. We cover key concepts, practical examples, and best practices to help you understand and apply this topic effectively.

API Versioning tools automate version detection, compatibility checking, changelog generation, and version enforcement across your API ecosystem.

class OpenAPIDiffTool:
    def __init__(self, old_spec: Dict, new_spec: Dict):
        self.old = old_spec
        self.new = new_spec

    def detect_breaking_changes(self) -> List[Dict]:
        changes = []
        old_paths = self.old.get("paths", {})
        new_paths = self.new.get("paths", {})
        for path in old_paths:
            if path not in new_paths:
                changes.append({"type": "breaking", "path": path, "change": "removed"})
            else:
                for method in old_paths[path]:
                    if method not in new_paths.get(path, {}):
                        changes.append({"type": "breaking", "path": path, "method": method, "change": "method_removed"})
        return changes

diff = OpenAPIDiffTool({"paths": {"/api/v1/scan": {"get": {}}}}, {"paths": {}})
print(f"Breaking changes: {diff.detect_breaking_changes()}")
