How can I modify swagger-ui.html for springfox?

Question

I am using springfox's swagger implementation. I would like to modify the swagger-ui.html to take a custom header value. How do I modify this file? Or tell spring fox to use an alternate file?

Answer 1

1. Pull Swagger UI from github.

   https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui

2. Copy & paste dist directory of swagger ui to resources directory

3. Replace the code with below in swagger config

   replace

   registry.addResourceHandler("swagger-ui.html").addResourceLocations("classpath:/META-INF/resources/");
   

   with

   registry.addResourceHandler("**").addResourceLocations("classpath:/dist/");
   

4. Change the api docs path in index.html to your path

   Replace

   http://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json
   

   With

   http://localhost:8080/your_app/v2/api-docs
   

5. Use the below url pattern to see the ui page

   http://localhost:8080/your_app/index.html
