Any Springfox alternatives out there?

Question

Last two years I worked on Spring Boot Applications with Springfox. Springfox generate a documentation and a test ui for your REST API. This was awesome.

But actually Springfox project is dead and do not support the newest Spring. I have three questions

1. Is there any other way to generate Swagger UI directly? Any other library/project?
2. How do you implement swagger ui into your Spring Boot project?
3. Maybe im outdated, is there a much more better alternative to the swagger staff for Spring Boot?

Update After months of heavy use and testing of

SpringDoc OpenApi

I would say that is not an alternative to springfox, it is something much better! Stable, easy to use and up to date!

I can 100% recomend this! We migrate all our projects to SpringDoc OpenApi.

Answer 1

I haven't tried it myself yet, but this looks quite promising:

https://github.com/springdoc/springdoc-openapi

OpenAPI is the successor of Swagger, if you haven't heard. Not sure how much this project offers in terms of customization and how mature it is, but I guess it's worth a try ;-)

Answer 2

Spring doc Open API is alternative going forward.

1. SpringDoc OpenAPI supports OAS 3.0
2. Supports more annotations like @MatrixParam which was not supported in springfox.
3. Spring boot 2.2.x works only with springdoc.
