Summary
Swag converts Go annotations to Swagger Documentation 2.0. We've created a variety of plugins for popular Go web frameworks. This allows you to quickly integrate with an existing Go project (using Swagger UI).
Examples
Getting started
-
Add comments to your API source code, See Declarative Comments Format.
-
Download swag by using:
$ go get -u github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag
- Run
swag init
in the project's root folder which contains themain.go
file. This will parse your comments and generate the required files (docs
folder anddocs/docs.go
).
$ swag init
- In order to serve these files, you can utilize one of our supported plugins. For go's core library, check out net/http.
- Make sure to import the generated
docs/docs.go
so that your specific configuration getsinit
'ed. - If your General API annotation do not live in
main.go
, you can let swag know with-g
.
swag init -g http/api.go
Supported Web Frameworks
How to use it with Gin
Find the example source code here.
- After using
swag init
to generate Swagger 2.0 docs, import the following packages:
import "github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger" // gin-swagger middleware
import "github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger/swaggerFiles" // swagger embed files
- Add General API annotations in
main.go
code:
// @title Swagger Example API
// @version 1.0
// @description This is a sample server celler server.
// @termsOfService http://swagger.io/terms/
// @contact.name API Support
// @contact.url http://www.swagger.io/support
// @contact.email support@swagger.io
// @license.name Apache 2.0
// @license.url http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html
// @host localhost:8080
// @BasePath /api/v1
// @securityDefinitions.basic BasicAuth
// @securityDefinitions.apikey ApiKeyAuth
// @in header
// @name Authorization
// @securitydefinitions.oauth2.application OAuth2Application
// @tokenUrl https://example.com/oauth/token
// @scope.write Grants write access
// @scope.admin Grants read and write access to administrative information
// @securitydefinitions.oauth2.implicit OAuth2Implicit
// @authorizationurl https://example.com/oauth/authorize
// @scope.write Grants write access
// @scope.admin Grants read and write access to administrative information
// @securitydefinitions.oauth2.password OAuth2Password
// @tokenUrl https://example.com/oauth/token
// @scope.read Grants read access
// @scope.write Grants write access
// @scope.admin Grants read and write access to administrative information
// @securitydefinitions.oauth2.accessCode OAuth2AccessCode
// @tokenUrl https://example.com/oauth/token
// @authorizationurl https://example.com/oauth/authorize
// @scope.admin Grants read and write access to administrative information
func main() {
r := gin.Default()
c := controller.NewController()
v1 := r.Group("/api/v1")
{
accounts := v1.Group("/accounts")
{
accounts.GET(":id", c.ShowAccount)
accounts.GET("", c.ListAccounts)
accounts.POST("", c.AddAccount)
accounts.DELETE(":id", c.DeleteAccount)
accounts.PATCH(":id", c.UpdateAccount)
accounts.POST(":id/images", c.UploadAccountImage)
}
//...
}
r.GET("/swagger/*any", ginSwagger.WrapHandler(swaggerFiles.Handler))
r.Run(":8080")
}
//...
Additionally some general API info can be set dynamically. The generated code package docs
exports SwaggerInfo
variable which we can use to set the title, description, version, host and base path programatically. Example using Gin:
package main
import (
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
"github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger"
"github.com/swaggo/gin-swagger/swaggerFiles"
"./docs" // docs is generated by Swag CLI, you have to import it.
)
// @contact.name API Support
// @contact.url http://www.swagger.io/support
// @contact.email support@swagger.io
// @license.name Apache 2.0
// @license.url http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html
// @termsOfService http://swagger.io/terms/
func main() {
// programatically set swagger info
docs.SwaggerInfo.Title = "Swagger Example API"
docs.SwaggerInfo.Description = "This is a sample server Petstore server."
docs.SwaggerInfo.Version = "1.0"
docs.SwaggerInfo.Host = "petstore.swagger.io"
docs.SwaggerInfo.BasePath = "/v2"
r := gin.New()
// use ginSwagger middleware to serve the API docs
r.GET("/swagger/*any", ginSwagger.WrapHandler(swaggerFiles.Handler))
r.Run()
}
- Add API Operation annotations in
controller
code
package controller
import (
"fmt"
"net/http"
"strconv"
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
"github.com/swaggo/swag/example/celler/httputil"
"github.com/swaggo/swag/example/celler/model"
)
// ShowAccount godoc
// @Summary Show a account
// @Description get string by ID
// @ID get-string-by-int
// @Accept json
// @Produce json
// @Param id path int true "Account ID"
// @Success 200 {object} model.Account
// @Failure 400 {object} httputil.HTTPError
// @Failure 404 {object} httputil.HTTPError
// @Failure 500 {object} httputil.HTTPError
// @Router /accounts/{id} [get]
func (c *Controller) ShowAccount(ctx *gin.Context) {
id := ctx.Param("id")
aid, err := strconv.Atoi(id)
if err != nil {
httputil.NewError(ctx, http.StatusBadRequest, err)
return
}
account, err := model.AccountOne(aid)
if err != nil {
httputil.NewError(ctx, http.StatusNotFound, err)
return
}
ctx.JSON(http.StatusOK, account)
}
// ListAccounts godoc
// @Summary List accounts
// @Description get accounts
// @Accept json
// @Produce json
// @Param q query string false "name search by q"
// @Success 200 {array} model.Account
// @Failure 400 {object} httputil.HTTPError
// @Failure 404 {object} httputil.HTTPError
// @Failure 500 {object} httputil.HTTPError
// @Router /accounts [get]
func (c *Controller) ListAccounts(ctx *gin.Context) {
q := ctx.Request.URL.Query().Get("q")
accounts, err := model.AccountsAll(q)
if err != nil {
httputil.NewError(ctx, http.StatusNotFound, err)
return
}
ctx.JSON(http.StatusOK, accounts)
}
//...

- user defined struct
Attribute
// @Param enumstring query string false "string enums" Enums(A, B, C)
// @Param enumint query int false "int enums" Enums(1, 2, 3)
// @Param enumnumber query number false "int enums" Enums(1.1, 1.2, 1.3)

It also works for the struct fields:
type Foo struct {

Baz int `minimum:"10" maximum:"20" default:"15"`
Qux []string `enums:"foo,bar,baz"`
}
Available
Field Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
default | * | Declares the value of the parameter that the server will use if none is provided, for example a "count" to control the number of results per page might default to 100 if not supplied by the client in the request. (Note: "default" has no meaning for required parameters.) See https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-fge-json-schema-validation-00#section-6.2. Unlike JSON Schema this value MUST conform to the defined type for this parameter. |

TIPS
User defined structure with an array type
// @Success 200 {array} model.Account <-- This is a user defined struct.
package model
type Account struct {
ID int `json:"id" example:"1"`
Name string `json:"name" example:"account name"`
}
Use multiple path params
/// ...
// @Param group_id path int true "Group ID"
// @Param account_id path int true "Account ID"
// ...
// @Router /examples/groups/{group_id}/accounts/{account_id} [get]
Example value of struct
type Account struct {
ID int `json:"id" example:"1"`
Name string `json:"name" example:"account name"`
PhotoUrls []string `json:"photo_urls" example:"http://test/image/1.jpg,http://test/image/2.jpg"`
}
Description of struct
type Account struct {
// ID this is userid
ID int `json:"id"
}
Override swagger type of a struct field
type Account struct {
// Override primitive type by simply specifying it via `swaggertype` tag
ID sql.NullInt64 `json:"id" swaggertype:"integer"`
// Array types can be overridden using "array,<prim_type>" format
Coeffs []big.Float `json:"coeffs" swaggertype:"array,number"`
}
About the Project
This project was inspired by yvasiyarov/swagger but we simplified the usage and added support a variety of web frameworks.
