Question

I have developpe some Rest web service documented by swagger, using swagger-springmvc annotions. Now, I want to use swagger-editor to generate client side Rest web service code, but swagger-editor require Yaml or Json file. Do you know if there is a way to generate this file ? Thanks at advance

EDIT : It's can be done by using swagger-mvn-plugin , but I don't found an example on how to do it ?

I reply to my self :) . You can generate client and server side documentation (yaml, json and html) by using swagger-maven-plugin

Add this to your pom.xml:

.....
 <plugin>
                <groupId>com.github.kongchen</groupId>
                <artifactId>swagger-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>3.0.1</version>
                <configuration>
                    <apiSources>
                        <apiSource>
                            <springmvc>true</springmvc>
                            <locations>com.yourcontrollers.package.v1</locations>
                            <schemes>http,https</schemes>
                            <host>localhost:8080</host>

                            <info>
                                <title>Your API name</title>
                                <version>v1</version>

You can download *.hbs template at this address: https://github.com/kongchen/swagger-maven-example

Execute mvn swagger:generate Json documentation will be generated at your project /generated/swagger/ directory. Past it on this address : http://editor.swagger.io

And generate what ever you want (Server side or Client side API in your preferred technology)
