generate pipe from openApi

[jmls]

Super excited to come across this project, so many plugins to play with ;)

Has anyone considered writing a tool for openApi that generates a steampipe plugin for that api ? If this were possible, it would increase the amount of available pipes dramatically . After all, if we can generate typescript sdks, why not pipes ?

This is a promising idea and would be great.

Possible approaches:

1. Code generation of OpenAPI schema to plugin code. A build process, perhaps with hand editing of details.
2. A dynamic plugin that creates tables and columns automatically from an OpenAPI schema at load / run time.

We have a number of plugins that work like 2 already - e.g. SalesForce, Kubernetes Custom Resource Definitions, CSV, etc. This would be an exciting approach.

Key challenge would be around things like pagination. I suspect we'd need custom fields added to the OpenAPI schema to define things like this - which is totally doable, but notable.

Can't wait to see what you build with Steampipe @jmls!
