This looks interesting..but there is some cons also..

*swagger-node-express*
+ nice REST style UI
+ possible to try API directly from UI ( send HTTP requests + parse 
responses )
+ model supports
- *Adding models/methods needs "special way" to do it * (* E.g. 
swagger.addModels(petResources.models).addGet(petResources.findByTags)* )
  - this may affect to performance (?)
  - looks that this cannot be used with 
express-resources<https://npmjs.org/package/express-resource>directly (?)
- no mongoose/mongodb support directly
 *needs some kind of wrapper from mongoose-model to swagger-model


What you guys use for REST API documentation ? I do not think that I'm the 
only one who wants to document the interfaces of ~these requirements ...
