gin middleware to automatically generate RESTful API documentation with Swagger 2.0.
- Add comments to your API source code, See Declarative Comments Format.
- Download Swag for Go by using:
$ go get -u github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag
- Run the Swag in your Go project root folder which contains
main.go
file, Swag will parse comments and generate required files(docs
folder anddocs/doc.go
).
$ swag init
- Download gin-swagger by using:
$ go get -u github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger
$ go get -u github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger/swaggerFiles
And import following in your code:
import "github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger" // gin-swagger middleware
import "github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger/swaggerFiles" // swagger embed files
package main
import (
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
"github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger"
"github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger/swaggerFiles"
_ "./docs" // docs is generated by Swag CLI, you have to import it.
)
// @title Swagger Example API
// @version 1.0
// @description This is a sample server Petstore server.
// @termsOfService http://swagger.io/terms/

// @host petstore.swagger.io
// @BasePath /v2
func main() {
r := gin.New()
config := &ginSwagger.Config{
URL: "http://localhost:8080/swagger/doc.json", //The url pointing to API definition
}
// use ginSwagger middleware to
r.GET("/swagger/*any", ginSwagger.CustomWrapHandler(config, swaggerFiles.Handler))
r.Run()
}
- Run it, and browser to http://localhost:8080/swagger/index.html, you can see Swagger 2.0 Api documents.
- If you want to disable swagger when some environment variable is set, use
DisablingWrapHandler
package main
import (
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
"github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger"
"github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger/swaggerFiles"
_ "./docs" // docs is generated by Swag CLI, you have to import it.
)
// @title Swagger Example API

func main() {
r := gin.New()
// use ginSwagger middleware to
r.GET("/swagger/*any", ginSwagger.DisablingWrapHandler(swaggerFiles.Handler, "NAME_OF_ENV_VARIABLE"))
r.Run()
}
Then, if you set envioment variable NAME_OF_ENV_VARIABLE
to anything, /swagger/*any
will respond 404, just like when route unspecified.
