API registry in a container platform for automatically generating client code libraries

A method of providing Application Programming Interface (API) functions for registered service endpoints in container environments may include receiving, at an API registry, a request from a second service to use a first service in a container environment, where the API registry may list one or more API functions that call the first service. The method may also include generating, by the API registry, a client library for the second service that includes the one or more API functions to execute calls from the second service to the first service in the container environment.
