How to Integrate Swagger UI with Spring Boot 3
In this week's newsletter, let us see how we can implement SwaggerUI and OpenAPI specification for a simple Spring Boot 3 RESTful API
API Documentation is one of the important parts of developing a RESTful Service. API documentation helps us understand what the API expects as a request and the possible outputs it can provide, which helps us in consuming the service into our applications the right way.
The OpenAPI specification was previously known as the Swagger specification. It is the market standard that we generally use for developing API documentation.
Swagger UI is a visual tool that creates a UI on top of the OpenAPI specification, using which clients can test the RESTful services without having to write any implementation logic. It is automatically generated from the OpenAPI specification for the service.
Like as in any other popular frameworks out there, you can easily integrate Swagger UI in a Spring Boot 3 project.
You just need to install the required dependency and then create a Swagger Configuration bean that supplies the necessary information to the Spring Boot container.
In this article, I have explained in detail about how to do this with an illustrating example. Checkout the article here - https://referbruv.com/blog/how-to-integrate-swagger-ui-with-spring-boot-3/
