For instance, with config such as: # via https://github.com/rootlyhq/rootly-go/blob/61c86b8660b6f25d1e8d8638417de173350dfb61/vendir.yml apiVersion: vendir.k14s.io/v1alpha1 kind: Config directories: - path: .vendored contents: - path: rootly-api http: url: https://rootly-heroku.s3.amazonaws.com/swagger/v1/swagger.json This leads to .vendored/rootly-api/swagger.json being the full OpenAPI spec path.
