In the video below, we take a closer look at how to configure Swagger in Spring Boot and setting up Swagger 2 with a Spring REST API. Let's get started!
Doing More With Swagger and Spring
In my last article, I gave a quick introduction to Swagger in the Spring realm. Also, we saw how the additional Maven artifact "spring-swagger-simplified" automatically leverages the validation constraint annotations used by Spring and enriches the Swagger models and Swagger UI.
Below, for a quick recap, we look at the automatic model enhancements amongst other things we had discussed in the previous article.
Generating and Consuming REST APIs With Spring Boot 2, Angular 7, and Swagger 2
Imagine you want to integrate backend APIs or third-party APIs with minimal effort; how do you pull it off?
Integrating backend APIs manually can be time-consuming and error-prone. That's where Swagger comes into the picture. Swagger is the most popular framework to generate and consume OpenAPI specifications. The tool greatly relieves the burden of documenting and interacting with APIs.
