springdoc-openapi-maven-plugin | Library for OpenAPI 3 with spring-boot | REST library

I have a very strange problem. I added the following dependency to my pom.xml

I have a plugin in my Spring Boot projects pom.xml which I would like the option of sometimes disabling when running mvn clean install.
Is there a configuration I could add to my pom.xml which would create a custom flag e.g. exc, which when invoked like so mvn clean install -D exc would build the jar, without that plugin. For clarity, here is the plugin I would like to disable via a maven flag:

I'm currently testing springdoc to integrate it in other projects. I found out, that the maven plugin doesn't apply any configuration settings, e.g. the outputfilename can't be set. If I'm calling mvn verify, the plugin just generates target/openapi.json! What I'm doing wrong?

The project has just a sample controller with some openapi anntotations.

I am trying to integrate Gatling to perform automation load testing. but I am getting different errors. I need some help on this topic.

I am using JDK-11 version

My Controller class as follows

I am trying to generate the Swagger.json file during maven build time.

This is my plugin in pom.xml from docs.

My goal is to generate Spring Boot REST Client using OpenAPI 3.0.

I would like to first generate the OpenAPI specification file (springdoc-openapi-maven-plugin) of my API and then generate the client code from this file (swagger-codegen-maven-plugin) using Maven.

My problem is that swagger-codegen-maven-plugin is executed before springdoc-openapi-maven-plugin. So, the output file generated by springdoc-openapi-maven-plugin does not exist when swagger-codegen-maven-plugin executes.

How to execute springdoc-openapi-maven-plugin before swagger-codegen-maven-plugin given the following Maven build plugins configuration?

My Maven build plugin configuration:

We are using SpringDoc in our WebFlux project to annotate our APIs and serve OpenAPI documentation from a UI. However, now we need the OpenAPI file generated as part of the maven build.

SpringDoc has a plugin to fetch the file from a running service, where the service has been started by spring plugin, but our service requires a lot of stuff to be set up in order to run. We are doing this setup in our tests' @BeforeClass and don't want to extract that setup (and the corresponding cleanup) just so that the service can be started as part of the maven build. Plus we plan to eventually stop starting up the service for our tests and instead use mocks, so adding a test to retrieve the file from the running test is only a temporary solution (would like to not have to maintain startup code just in order to retrieve the OpenAPI doc).

I have tried using the swagger-maven-plugin from swagger-core, but it seems to require jaxrs, which we are not using. I have also looked into SpringFox, but it also does not offer the desired functionality.

Any ideas on how to generate OpenAPI documentation for a WebFlux project as part of the maven build without starting the service?

I have a spring project where all the endpoints are running https which causes the following error when trying to run mvn verify -Dspring.application.admin.enabled=true -Dspring-boot.run.profiles=dev. Is there a way to specify the cert path? Or way to make only this endpoint http instead of https with spring security.

Error:

I have a sample SpringBoot API with the following features:

• 1 controller that exposes a single endpoint invokable with a GET request and that returns a custom class (ContainerClass in my example)
• ContainerClass contains a property List
• ParentClass is an abstract class that has 2 sub-classes: ChildA and ChildB

I try to generate an OpenApi contract from this API with springdoc-openapi-maven-plugin.

In my pom.xml, I have the following elements:

• SpringBoot version: 2.2.6
• org.springdoc:springdoc-openapi-ui:1.4.1
• org.springdoc:springdoc-openapi-maven-plugin:1.0

Here are my classes I generate schema from.
