Is there a way to split a Swaggerfile / OpenAPI definition into multiple files? - json

Question

Is there a way to split a swaggerfile / OpenAPI specs file, either JSON or YAML, encoding every $ref into a separate file? Because I found a lot of solutions to achieve the opposite (multiple files -> single file), but none for this.
What I'd like to achieve is the following:
I have a huge JSON swaggerfile that contains internal $refs.
I'd like to have a single file for each and every object or path definition, and, in the root file, references (local or absolute) to these files. This way I can edit the root file to easily obtain a minimal subset of the paths and objects that I need.
{
"in": "inputField",
"required": true,
"schema": {
"$ref": "#/components/schemas/MyObject"
},
"components": {
"schemas": {
"MyObject": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"value": {
"type": "string"
}
}
}
}
},
"____comment": "I want MyObject definition in MyObject.json file and the $ref to that file"
}

Yeah, its possible, you must only use regex, and detect depedencies etc.
regex example from my project
new Regex("\"#/definitions/(.*)\"");
new Regex("#\\/definitions\\/(.*?)\\\"");
new Regex("\"" + key + "\": ");
etc.
You must replace elements with dependencies, and save to file. I do sth like that to recive jschema from model. Your case,is a little diffrent, but smilar.
