# @kubb/plugin-swr

`@kubb/plugin-swr` generates typed [SWR](https://swr.vercel.app/) hooks from OpenAPI operations. Each hook calls a generated Axios or Fetch client.

## Installation

::code-group{sync="package-manager"}

```shell [bun]
bun add -d @kubb/plugin-swr
```

```shell [pnpm]
pnpm add -D @kubb/plugin-swr
```

```shell [npm]
npm install --save-dev @kubb/plugin-swr
```

```shell [yarn]
yarn add -D @kubb/plugin-swr
```

::

## Dependencies

Add [`pluginTs`](/plugins/plugin-ts/) and an [Axios](/plugins/plugin-axios/) or [Fetch](/plugins/plugin-fetch/) client plugin. Generated hooks require SWR v2 or higher. Configure validation on the client plugin.

## Example

```typescript twoslash [kubb.config.ts]
import { defineConfig } from 'kubb'
import { pluginTs } from '@kubb/plugin-ts'
import { pluginFetch } from '@kubb/plugin-fetch'
import { pluginSwr } from '@kubb/plugin-swr'

export default defineConfig({
  input: './petStore.yaml',
  output: { path: './src/gen' },
  plugins: [
    pluginTs(),
    pluginFetch(),
    pluginSwr(),
  ],
})
```
