## Differences
This is fork of [pangpanglabs/echoswagger](https://github.com/pangpanglabs/echoswagger)

With several differences:
* Switched to [Echo framework, v4](https://github.com/labstack/echo/tree/v4.1.11)
* Modular dependencies support
* Switched to [Apache 2.0](https://git.webz.asia/echo-go/echoswagger/blob/master/LICENSE) license
* Builder docker script for example code  

## Feature
- No SwaggerUI HTML/CSS dependency
- Highly integrated with Echo, low intrusive design
- Take advantage of the strong typing language and chain programming to make it easy to use
- Recycle garbage in time, low memory usage

## Installation
```
go get git.webz.asia/echo-go/echoswagger
```

## Example
```go
package main

import (
	"net/http"

	"github.com/labstack/echo/v4"
	"github.com/labstack/echo/v4/middleware"

	"git.webz.asia/echo-go/echoswagger"
)

func main() {
	e := echo.New()

	e.Use(middleware.Recover())
	e.Use(middleware.Logger())

	// ApiRoot with Echo instance
	r := echoswagger.New(e, "/doc", nil)

	// Routes with parameters & responses
	r.POST("/", createUser).
		AddParamBody(User{}, "body", "User input struct", true).
		AddResponse(http.StatusCreated, "successful", nil, nil)

	// Start server
	r.Echo().Logger.Fatal(r.Echo().Start(":1323"))
}

type User struct {
	Name string
}

// Handler
func createUser(c echo.Context) error {
	return c.JSON(http.StatusCreated, nil)
}

```

## Usage
#### Create a `ApiRoot` with `New()`, which is a wrapper of `echo.New()`
```
r := echoswagger.New(echo.New(), "/doc", nil)
```
You can use the result `ApiRoot` instance to:
- Setup Security definitions, request/response Content-Types, UI options, Scheme, etc.
```
r.AddSecurityAPIKey("JWT", "JWT Token", echoswagger.SecurityInHeader).
	SetRequestContentType("application/x-www-form-urlencoded", "multipart/form-data").
	SetUI(UISetting{HideTop: true}).
	SetScheme("https", "http")
```
- Get `echo.Echo` instance.
```
r.Echo()
```
- Registers a new GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, HEAD or PATCH route in default group, these are wrappers of Echo's create route methods.
It returns a new `Api` instance.
```
r.GET("/:id", handler)
```
- And: ↓

#### Create a `ApiGroup` with `Group()`, which is a wrapper of `echo.Group()`
```
g := r.Group("Users", "/users")
```
You can use the result `ApiGroup` instance to:
- Set description, etc.
```
g.SetDescription("The desc of group")
```
- Set security for all routes in this group.
```
g.SetSecurity("JWT")
```
- Get `echo.Group` instance.
```
g.EchoGroup()
```
- And: ↓

#### Registers a new route in `ApiGroup`
GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS, HEAD or PATCH methods are supported by Echoswagger, these are wrappers of Echo's create route methods.
```
a := g.GET("/:id", handler)
```
You can use the result `Api` instance to:
- Add parameter with these methods:
```
AddParamPath(p interface{}, name, desc string)

AddParamPathNested(p interface{})

AddParamQuery(p interface{}, name, desc string, required bool)

AddParamQueryNested(p interface{})

AddParamForm(p interface{}, name, desc string, required bool)

AddParamFormNested(p interface{})

AddParamHeader(p interface{}, name, desc string, required bool)

AddParamHeaderNested(p interface{})

AddParamBody(p interface{}, name, desc string, required bool)

AddParamFile(name, desc string, required bool)
```

The methods which name's suffix are `Nested` means these methods treat parameter `p` 's fields as paramters, so it must be a struct type.

e.g.
```
type SearchInput struct {
	Q         string `query:"q" swagger:"desc(Keywords),required"`
	SkipCount int    `query:"skipCount"`
}
a.AddParamQueryNested(SearchInput{})
```
Is equivalent to:
```
a.AddParamQuery("", "q", "Keywords", true).
	AddParamQuery(0, "skipCount", "", false)
```
- Add responses.
```
a.AddResponse(http.StatusOK, "response desc", body{}, nil)
```
- Set Security, request/response Content-Types, summary, description, etc.
```
a.SetSecurity("JWT").
	SetResponseContentType("application/xml").
	SetSummary("The summary of API").
	SetDescription("The desc of API")
```
- Get `echo.Route` instance.
```
a.Route()
```

#### With swagger tag, you can set more info with `AddParam...` methods.
e.g.
```
type User struct {
	Age    int       `swagger:"min(0),max(99)"`
	Gender string    `swagger:"enum(male|female|other),required"`
	Money  []float64 `swagger:"default(0),readOnly"`
}
a.AddParamBody(&User{}, "Body", "", true)
```
The definition is equivalent to:
```
{
    "definitions": {
        "User": {
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {
                "Age": {
                    "type": "integer",
                    "format": "int32",
                    "minimum": 0,
                    "maximum": 99
                },
                "Gender": {
                    "type": "string",
                    "enum": [
                        "male",
                        "female",
                        "other"
                    ],
                    "format": "string"
                },
                "Money": {
                    "type": "array",
                    "items": {
                        "type": "number",
                        "default": 0,
                        "format": "double"
                    },
                    "readOnly": true
                }
            },
            "required": [
                "Gender"
            ]
        }
    }
}
```

**Supported swagger tags:**

Tag | Type | Description
---|:---:|---
desc | `string` | Description.
maximum | `number` | -
minimum | `number` | -
maxLength | `integer` | -
minLength | `integer` | -
allowEmpty | `boolean` | Sets the ability to pass empty-valued parameters. This is valid only for either `query` or `formData` parameters and allows you to send a parameter with a name only or  an empty value. Default value is `false`.
required | `boolean` | Determines whether this parameter is mandatory. If the parameter is `in` "path", this property is `true` without setting. Otherwise, the property MAY be included and its default value is `false`.
readOnly | `boolean` | Relevant only for Schema `"properties"` definitions. Declares the property as "read only". This means that it MAY be sent as part of a response but MUST NOT be sent as part of the request. Properties marked as `readOnly` being `true` SHOULD NOT be in the `required` list of the defined schema. Default value is `false`.
enum | [*] | Enumerate value, multiple values should be separated by "\|"
default | * | Default value, which type is same as the field's type.
