Supports Swagger 1.3 as of version 0.3.0!
This project aims at providing Swagger support to your Spring-Web based application. It will attempt to document your API based on existing Spring-Web annotations if no Swagger annotations exist. If Swagger annotations do exist, it will utilize those in conjunction with the Spring-Web annotations.
##How-To
To include swagger4spring-web in your project, you need to include the jar in your project. If you use Maven, please include the following dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.knappsack</groupId>
<artifactId>swagger4spring-web</artifactId>
<version>0.3.5</version>
</dependency>
Java 8+ users, please compile your source using the javac "-parameters" argument. This ensures that your parameter names display correctly in your API documentation.
In order to use swagger4spring-web in your project, you need to declare an ApiDocumentationController bean in your servlet context. For example:
<beans:bean id="documentationController" class="com.knappsack.swagger4springweb.controller.ApiDocumentationController"
p:basePath="http://localhost:8080/yourapp"
p:baseControllerPackage="com.knappsack.swagger4springweb.controllers.api"
p:baseModelPackage="com.knappsack.swagger4springweb.models"
p:apiVersion="v1" />
- basePath - optional - the base URL of your web application, for example http://localhost/swagger4spring-web-example
- baseControllerPackage - optional - this is the package you want swagger4spring-web to scan to look for classes annotated with @Controller. If this is not set, all your packages are scanned.
- baseModelPackage - optional - this is the package you want to scan if all your model objects are in a specific directory. These classes will be added to your documentation schema. If no package is specified only certain return types and parameters are added to the documentation schema.
- additionalControllerPackage - optional - if you have more packages with controllers outside of the baseControllerPackage, specify them here.
- additionalModelPackage - optional - if you have packages outside of the baseModelPackage that you want to scan for models, specify them here.
- apiVersion - required - this is the version of your API
- apiInfo - optional - if you have information you wish to provide, such as license and terms of service, set this.
If you are using version 0.3.0 or above, you'll also need to add the following to the appropriate Spring context file in your application:
<mvc:annotation-driven>
<mvc:message-converters>
<beans:bean class="org.springframework.http.converter.json.MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter">
<beans:property name="objectMapper">
<beans:bean class="com.knappsack.swagger4springweb.util.ScalaObjectMapper"/>
</beans:property>
</beans:bean>
</mvc:message-converters>
</mvc:annotation-driven>
Once the ApiDocumentationController is wired, you may call go to your base path + /api/resourceList (ex: http://localhost/swagger4spring-web-example/api/resourceList) in order to retrieve an inventory of your APIs. For an example JSP see this page.
#####Alternative Implementation
If you wish to use a different request mapping then you may extend create a new controller that extends ApiDocumentationController. For example if you want the URL to be /documentation/resourceList instead of /api/resourceList you can create a controller like this:
@Controller
@RequestMapping(value = "/documentation")
public class ExampleDocumentationController extends ApiDocumentationController {
public ExampleDocumentationController() {
setBaseControllerPackage("com.knappsack.swagger4springweb.controllers.api");
setBaseModelPackage("com.knappsack.swagger4springweb.models");
setApiVersion("v1");
}
@RequestMapping(value = "/", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public String documentation() {
return "documentation";
}
}
In this case you don't have to create the controller bean in your servlet context if you are using component scanning and your new controller is set to be picked up in the scan.
To see a working example, please take a look at swagger4spring-web-example.
##Annotation Support The following Spring-Web annotations are supported:
- @Controller
- @RestController
- @RequestMapping
- @ResponseBody
- @RequestBody
- @PathVariable
- @RequestParam
- @ApiExclude - This annotation is unique to swagger4spring-web. It allows you to specify a controller or method for which you do not want to generate Swagger documentation.
The following Swagger annotations are supported:
- @Api
- @ApiResponse
- @ApiResponses
- @ApiOperation
- @ApiParam
- @ApiModel
- @ApiModelProperty
