I have set up a swagger on my spring boot application, where on a lot of methods and controllers works correctly. The problem is the one field in the response class where Optional field is not showing on UI.
public class CalculatedResult {
private CalculatorKey key;
private CalculatedField field;
**@ApiModelProperty(value = "Depending on CalculatedField it can be number or string")
private Optional<?> value;**
... getters setters and etc
And the swagger class:
@Bean
public Docket api() {
//global default message that are on all methods
List<ResponseMessage> globalMessages = Arrays.asList(GLOBAL_MESSAGES); // ignore this
return new Docket(DocumentationType.SWAGGER_2)
.select()
.apis(RequestHandlerSelectors.basePackage("pts.riskengine"))
.paths(PathSelectors.any())
.build()
.directModelSubstitute(LocalDate.class, String.class)
.genericModelSubstitutes(ResponseEntity.class)
.alternateTypeRules(
newRule(typeResolver.resolve(DeferredResult.class,
typeResolver.resolve(ResponseEntity.class, WildcardType.class)),
typeResolver.resolve(WildcardType.class)))
.additionalModels(typeResolver.resolve(ClientSettings.class), typeResolver.resolve(CalculatedResult.class),
typeResolver.resolve(CalculatorKey.class))
.useDefaultResponseMessages(false)
.forCodeGeneration(true)
.apiInfo(apiInfo())
.securitySchemes(Arrays.asList(securityScheme()))
.securityContexts(Arrays.asList(securityContext()))
.globalResponseMessage(RequestMethod.GET, globalMessages)
.globalResponseMessage(RequestMethod.POST, globalMessages)
.globalResponseMessage(RequestMethod.PUT, globalMessages)
.globalResponseMessage(RequestMethod.DELETE, globalMessages)
;
}
I have tried to put in .additionalModels and also in .genericModelSubstitutes as String, but not working. dataType = "java.lang.String" is also not solving my issue. Do anyone else got this kind of problem or know how it could be solvable ?
