Swagger UI does not get generated when WebMvcConfigurationSupport is present-CodePudding

I am trying to generate Swagger UI in my spring boot project. The JSON API docs are generated, however Swagger UI doesn't, at least I am getting 404 when I enter the swagger ui address. My dependencies:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.springfox</groupId>
        <artifactId>springfox-boot-starter</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>io.springfox</groupId>
        <artifactId>springfox-swagger-ui</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0</version>
    </dependency>

However, when I remove this config (and do nothing else):

@Configuration
public class WebConfig extends WebMvcConfigurationSupport {

    @Override
    protected void addFormatters(FormatterRegistry registry) {
        registry.addConverter(new SomeEnumConverter());
        registry.addConverter(new AnotherEnumConverter());
    }
}

The Swagger UI works. Does Swagger UI have a problem with converters? Is there a workaround for the problem?

CodePudding user response：

You need to add the @EnableWebMvc annotation

@EnableWebMvc
@Configuration
public class WebConfig extends WebMvcConfigurationSupport {

  @Override
  protected void addFormatters(FormatterRegistry registry) {
    registry.addConverter(new SomeEnumConverter());
    registry.addConverter(new AnotherEnumConverter());
  }
}

But I think the official way to configure WebMvc now is implementing WebMvcConfigurer. You can see several examples in the official docs. I think it does not require @EnableWebMvc if you use Spring Boot.

@Configuration
public class WebConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {

  @Override
  protected void addFormatters(FormatterRegistry registry) {
    registry.addConverter(new SomeEnumConverter());
    registry.addConverter(new AnotherEnumConverter());
  }
}
