Using
...
with Camel 2.15.x
The default servlet supports any environment using JMX to discover the CamelContext(s) to use.
The name of the servlet is org.apache.camel.component.swagger.DefaultCamelSwaggerServlet
.
Using with Camel 2.14.x
The Swagger servlet is integrated with Spring or ServletListener Component.
Component | Servlet ClassName |
---|---|
spring | org.apache.camel.component.swagger.spring.SpringRestSwaggerApiDeclarationServlet |
servletlistener | org.apache.camel.component.swagger.servletlistener.ServletListenerRestSwaggerApiDeclarationServlet |
The servlet support the same options when using spring or servletlistener.
Warning |
---|
The servlets above from Camel 2.14.x is deprecated and replaced with a single default servlet from Camel 2.15 onwards. |
For example when using Spring To use this you need to configure the org.apache.camel.component.swagger.spring.RestSwaggerApiDeclarationServletSpringRestSwaggerApiDeclarationServlet
in the WEB-INF/web.xml
file as shown below:
Tip |
---|
If you use Camel 2.15 onwards then just use the default servlet in any kind of environment. |

CorsFilter
If you use the swagger ui to view the REST api then you likely need to enable support for CORS. This is needed if the swagger ui is hosted and running on another hostname/port than the actual REST apis. When doing this the swagger ui needs to be allowed to access the REST resources across the origin (CORS). The CorsFilter adds the necessary HTTP headers to enable CORS.
Examples
To use CORS adds the following filter org.apache.camel.component.swagger.RestSwaggerCorsFilter
to your web.xml.
Code Block |
---|
<!-- enable CORS filter so people can use swagger ui to browse and test the apis -->
<filter>
<filter-name>RestSwaggerCorsFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.apache.camel.component.swagger.RestSwaggerCorsFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>RestSwaggerCorsFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/api-docs/*</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/rest/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping> |
The CorsFilter sets the following headers for all requests
- Access-Control-Allow-Origin = *
- Access-Control-Allow-Methods = GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, TRACE, OPTIONS, CONNECT, PATCH
- Access-Control-Max-Age = 3600
- Access-Control-Allow-Headers = Origin, Accept, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Access-Control-Request-Method, Access-Control-Request-Headers
Notice this is a very simple CORS filter. You may need to use a more sophisticated filter to set the header values differently for a given client. Or block certain clients etc.
Multiple CamelContexts
Available as of Camel 2.16
When using camel-swagger from Camel 2.16 onwards then it supports detecting all the running CamelContexts in the same JVM. These contexts are listed in the root path, eg `/api-docs` as a simple list of names in json format. To access the swagger documentation then the context-path must be appended with the Camel context id, such as `api-docs/myCamel`.
Examples
In the Apache Camel distribution we ship the camel-example-servlet-rest-tomcat
which demonstrates using this Swagger component.
