Swagger.io has a feature that it can build a complete client from any API definition file (YAML or url).
First, open a new browser window and go to https://editor.swagger.io/ (there is no need to have an user for this).
Then go to File, Import File:
A window will open, browse for the YAML file with the API specs and then press "Open":
The file will load and you will be able to see its contents on the screen:
Besides the operations you can do with Swagger, there is a menu on top that allows you to generate a Client in any of the software languages that the application support:
Once you select on one of the options, a client file will be quickly generated and you will be able to download it to your PC:
Once you open the zip file, you will find the source code of the client that was generated by the webapp:
You can use the generated code as a sample of the source code for the local implementation of the REST API that you need to develop.
