Parsing the swagger API doc (swagger.json) to Java objects - swagger

Question

I want to parse any complex swagger-API-document(swagger.json) to Java objects.
may be List>
what are available options?
I am trying with io.swagger.parser.SwaggerParser.
but want to make sure that I know other available options and I use the correct parser which suffices to parse any complex document.
currently we are trying as below.
public List<Map<String,Object>> parse(String swaggerDocString) throws SwaggerParseException{
try{
Swagger swagger = new SwaggerParser().parse(swaggerDocString);
return processSwagger(swagger);
}catch(Exception ex){
String exceptionRefId=OSGUtil.getExceptionReferenceId();
logger.error("exception ref id " + exceptionRefId + " : Error while loading swagger file " + ex);
throw new SwaggerParseException("", ex.getLocalizedMessage(),exceptionRefId);
}
}
public List<Map<String,Object>> processSwagger(Swagger swagger){
List<Map<String,Object>> finalResult=new ArrayList<>();
Map<String, Model> definitions = swagger.getDefinitions();
// loop all the available paths of the swagger
if(swagger.getPaths()!=null && swagger.getPaths().keySet()!=null &&swagger.getPaths().keySet().size()>0 ){
swagger.getPaths().keySet().forEach(group->{
//get the path
Path path=swagger.getPath(group);
//list all the operations of the path
Map<HttpMethod,Operation> mapList=path.getOperationMap();
mapList.forEach((httpMethod,operation)->{
processPathData(finalResult,operation,path,group,httpMethod,definitions,group);
});
});
}
return finalResult;
}
whats the differences between
swagger-compat-spec-parser,
swagger-parser

swagger has the implementations for all the technologies.
