Swagger UI with Spring Boot 1.5.x

I recently created this demo / blog entry on using HTTPIE with Spring Boot Rest Repositories as shown below.

http://theblasfrompas.blogspot.com.au/2017/05/using-httpie-with-spring-boot-rest.html

I decided to take that same example and add Swagger UI to the RESTful endpoints. The full source code is here.

https://github.com/papicella/httpie-springboot

In short what you need is the following maven dependancies and that will add all you need. I found it works much cleaner if you use the same version of both these dependancies for some reason

  
<dependency>
  <groupId>io.springfox</groupId>
  <artifactId>springfox-swagger2</artifactId>
  <version>2.6.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>io.springfox</groupId>
  <artifactId>springfox-swagger-ui</artifactId>
  <version>2.6.1</version>
</dependency>

Finally a Class file describing the config and enabling Swagger is required as follows

  
package pivotal.io.boot.httpie.demo;

import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import springfox.documentation.builders.RequestHandlerSelectors;
import springfox.documentation.service.ApiInfo;
import springfox.documentation.service.Contact;
import springfox.documentation.spi.DocumentationType;
import springfox.documentation.spring.web.plugins.Docket;
import springfox.documentation.swagger2.annotations.EnableSwagger2;

import static springfox.documentation.builders.PathSelectors.regex;

@Configuration
@EnableSwagger2
public class SwaggerConfig
{
    @Bean
    public Docket swaggerSpringMvcPlugin() {
        return new Docket(DocumentationType.SWAGGER_2)
                .select()
                .apis(RequestHandlerSelectors.basePackage("pivotal.io.boot.httpie.demo"))
                .paths(regex("/api/employee/emps.*"))
                .build()
                .apiInfo(metaData());
    }

    private ApiInfo metaData() {
        ApiInfo apiInfo = new ApiInfo(
                "Spring Boot Employee REST API",
                "Spring Boot Employee REST API",
                "1.0",
                "Terms of service",
                new Contact("Pas Apicella", "https://www.blogger.com/profile/09389663166398991762", "papicella@pivotal.io"),
                "Apache License Version 2.0",
                "https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0");
        return apiInfo;
    }
}

The GitHub repo also included a Pivotal Cloud Foundry manifest.yml file to make it easy to deploy to Pivotal Cloud Foundry. The example uses a static hostname BUT can easily be changed to use a random-route or alter the hostname itself.

applications:
- name: pas-swagger-demo
  memory: 1G
  instances: 1
  hostname: pas-swagger-demo
  path: ./target/httpie-springboot-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
  env:
    JAVA_OPTS: -Djava.security.egd=file:///dev/urando

Then it's the simple "cf push"

$ cf push

pasapicella@pas-macbook:~/piv-projects/httpie-springboot$ cf push
