Fern enables you to generate professional, interactive API reference documentation for your JSON-RPC APIs using the OpenRPC specification. OpenRPC provides a standardized, machine-readable format for describing JSON-RPC 2.0 APIs, unlocking powerful documentation and code generation workflows.

How to Add an OpenRPC Endpoint

  1. Add your OpenRPC specification file (e.g., openrpc.yaml) to your /fern directory.
  2. Configure your generators.yml to point to your OpenRPC spec:
generators.yml
1api:
2  specs:
3    - openrpc: ../../api-specs/openrpc/wallet.yml

Configuration Properties

api.specs[].openrpc
Required

Path to your OpenRPC specification file. You can include multiple OpenRPC specs if your project exposes more than one JSON-RPC API.

Common Use Cases

JSON-RPC APIs are widely used for:

  • Blockchain & Crypto: Node RPC endpoints, wallet APIs
  • FinTech: Trading platforms, market data feeds
  • Developer Tools: Language servers, debuggers, automation
  • Distributed Systems: Remote procedure calls between services

Leverage Fern and OpenRPC to deliver world-class developer experiences for your JSON-RPC APIs.
