I'm currently creating an API Rest using Eclipse, Spring Framework MVC, and I just added to my project swagger. I can access the json result of swagger but I need to add swagger ui.

Here are all my files creating for swagger-springmvc:

WebAppInitializer.java

public class WebAppInitializer implements WebApplicationInitializer {

    private AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext ctx = null;

    @Override
    public void onStartup(final ServletContext sc) throws ServletException {

        System.setProperty("spring.profiles.active", "web");

        // Create the 'root' Spring application context
        ctx = new AnnotationConfigWebApplicationContext();
        ctx.register(SpringBaseWebConfiguration.class,
                SpringSwaggerConfiguration.class);

        // Manages the lifecycle
        sc.addListener(new ContextLoaderListener(ctx));
        sc.addListener(new ContextCleanupListener());

        // Spring WebMVC
        ServletRegistration.Dynamic springWebMvc = sc.addServlet("ws",
                new DispatcherServlet(ctx));
        springWebMvc.setLoadOnStartup(1);
        springWebMvc.addMapping("/ws/*");
        springWebMvc.setAsyncSupported(true);
    }

    @PreDestroy
    protected final void cleanup() {
        if (ctx != null) {
            ctx.close();
        }
    }
}

SpringSwaggerConfiguration.java

public class SpringSwaggerConfiguration {
    public static final List<String> DEFAULT_INCLUDE_PATTERNS = Arrays
            .asList(new String[]{"/com/sa/rnd/dark/resources/.*"});

Here are my 3 files to add swagger to my project, atm I just decide to check just 1 method which is :

@Api(description = "CRUD services for containers working with WebDark",
        value = "CRUD Services Containers")
@RestController
@RequestMapping(value = "/container", produces = MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
public class ContainersResources {
    /**
     * Find all children of a container.
     *
     * @param containerId
     *            ID of the parent container
     * @return ApiResponse
     */


    @ApiOperation(response = ApiResponse.class,
            value = "Find all children containers of one container",
            notes = "Find all children containers of one container")
    @RequestMapping(method = RequestMethod.GET, value = "/{containerId}")
    @ResponseStatus(HttpStatus.OK)
    public @ResponseBody ApiResponse<List<ContainerModel>> getContainerChildren(
            @ApiParam(required = true, value = "The id of the container parent",
                    name = "containerId")@PathVariable("containerId") final String containerId) {
        ApiResponse<List<ContainerModel>> result = new ApiResponse<>();
        result.setMessage("getContainerChildren  method of new Api Dark");
        result.setSuccess(true);
        result.setTotal(9000);
        return result;
    }
}

My results : I can access the following url http://localhost:8080/ApiDark/ws/api-docs but I get the json value like :

{"apiVersion":"1","swaggerVersion":"1.2","authorizations":{"basicAuth":{"type":"basicAuth"}},"info":{"title":"Swagger Spring MVC for Dark Api","description":"Sample application demonstrating how to use swagger-springmvc in a no-XML environment.","termsOfServiceUrl":"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_service","contact":"[email protected]","license":"Apache 2.0","licenseUrl":"http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html"}}

That's why I decided to add swagger-ui. I add the content of dist folder (taken from swagger-ui) to my src/main/webapp folder. And modify the content of index.html to point to my url :

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
  window.swaggerUi = new SwaggerUi({
      url: "http://localhost:8080/ApiDark/ws/api-docs.json",
  dom_id: "swagger-ui-container",

But I can't access to swagger-ui interface, I just have the json result... Need help to make it work please !

This issue seems old but just to share, with the recent version of swagger-springmvc and springmvc-ui, it has become very easy and less complicated to integrate swagger & swagger-ui with your web service to see in production REST api documentation.

@EnableSwagger annotation is added that enables swagger-springmvc out of the box. The generated swagger json Resource Listing can be accessed at /api-docs.

You may refer to following link for the steps on integrating swagger-springmvc and swagger-ui with your spring mvc project. https://github.com/martypitt/swagger-springmvc

What do you mean by 'I can't access to swagger-ui interface'?

In my case, my browser did not load the index.html (I think it throw 404), which I had in a subfolder together with all the dist files: webapp/doc/index.html. I had to exclude the subfolder from the servlet mapping in web.xml as I shortly described here: Java swagger with JaxRS throwing errors

My web.xml snippet looks like this finally:

  <servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>My application servlet-name</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/doc/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

(why this works see here:http://blog.ericdaugherty.com/2010/02/excluding-content-from-url-pattern-in.html)

Hope that helps!
