This library provides a Ktor plugin to document routes, generate an OpenApi Specification and serve a Swagger UI. It is meant to be minimally invasive, meaning it can be plugged into existing application without requiring immediate changes to the code. Routes can then be gradually enhanced with documentation.
- minimally invasive (no immediate change to existing code required)
- provides swagger-ui with no initial configuration required
- supports most of the OpenAPI 3.0.3 Specification
- automatic json-schema generation from arbitrary types/classes for bodies and parameters
- use custom encoder/serializers for examples and json-schemas
- provide custom schemas or a custom schema-builder
- external/custom json-schemas for bodies
- protect Swagger-UI and OpenApi-Spec with custom authentication
A wiki with a short documentation is available here.
