how to do friendly base url for swagger 2.8.0

Question

I'm trying to change base access url for API documentation. The url is "http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui.html". I want to get something like "http://localhost:8080/myapi/swagger-ui.html".

I use Springfox 2.8.0 Swagger, Java 8, Spring Boot 2.0 The swagger configuration is:

@Configuration
@EnableSwagger2
public class SwaggerConfiguration {

    @Bean
    public Docket api(ServletContext servletContext) {
        return new Docket(DocumentationType.SWAGGER_2)
                .pathProvider(new RelativePathProvider(servletContext) {
                    @Override
                    public String getApplicationBasePath() {
                        return "/myapi";
                    }
                })
                .select()
                .apis(RequestHandlerSelectors.any())
                .paths(Predicates.not(PathSelectors.regex("/error")))
                .build()
                .useDefaultResponseMessages(false);
    }
}

Custom path provider had to help, but I still get access to api documentation by using url "http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui.html". If I use url "http://localhost:8080/myapi/swagger-ui.html", I get 404 error. Look at the screenshot below.
