Chapter 7. Adding MicroProfile OpenAPI annotations to your REST controller code

Procedure

1. Add the @OpenApiDefinition annotation at the class level of your GreetingController. Include the data that is shown in the example in the annotation:

   @OpenAPIDefinition(
       info = @Info(
           title="Greeting API",
           version = "1.0.1",
           contact = @Contact(
               name = "Greeting API Support",
               url = "http://exampleurl.com/contact",
               email = "techsupport@example.com"),
           license = @License(
               name = "Apache 2.0",
               url = "https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html"))
   )

2. Annotate your endpoint definitions using the @Tag annotation. Give a name and a description for each endpoint:

   @Tag(name = "Hello", description = "Just say hello")
   @GetMapping(produces=MediaType.TEXT_PLAIN_VALUE)
   public String hello() {
       return "hello";
   }
   
   @GetMapping(value = "/{name}", produces=MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_VALUE)
   @Tag(name = "Hello to someone", description = "Just say hello to someone")
   public Greeting hello(@PathVariable(name = "name") String name) {
       return new Greeting("hello " + name);
   }

   The data that you provided in the annotations appears in the generated OpenAPI schema:
