folder anddocs/doc.go
).
$ swag init
- Download echo-swagger by using:
$ go get -u github.com/swaggo/echo-swagger
And import following in your code:
import "github.com/swaggo/echo-swagger" // echo-swagger middleware
package main
import (

func main() {
e := echo.New()
e.GET("/swagger/*", echoSwagger.WrapHandler)
e.Logger.Fatal(e.Start(":1323"))
}
- Run it, and browser to http://localhost:1323/swagger/index.html, you can see Swagger 2.0 Api documents.
Note: If you are using Gzip middleware you should add the swagger endpoint to skipper
e.Use(middleware.GzipWithConfig(middleware.GzipConfig{
Skipper: func(c echo.Context) bool {
if strings.Contains(c.Request().URL.Path, "swagger") {
return true
}
return false
},
}))
