Fix Swagger ApiModelProperty Hidden Issue
In the @ApiModelProperty annotation in Swagger, you can specify the hidden attribute to control whether to hide the field. If the hidden attribute is set to true, the field will not be displayed in the Swagger UI.
If the “hidden” attribute in the @ApiModelProperty annotation in Swagger is set to false or not set, but the field still cannot be displayed, it may be due to the following reasons:
- The Swagger dependencies are not properly imported. Make sure that you have correctly imported the Swagger dependencies. For example, for a Spring Boot project, you can import Swagger by adding the following dependencies:
io.springfox
springfox-swagger2
${springfox.version}
io.springfox
springfox-swagger-ui
${springfox.version}
- The Docket object in the Swagger configuration is not properly set up. Make sure the Docket object in the Swagger configuration class is correctly configured and includes the API package path that needs to be scanned. For example, here is a simple Swagger configuration class example:
- This block of code is setting up Swagger configuration in a Spring Boot application by enabling Swagger2 and defining a Docket bean which specifies where to look for API endpoints.
- The @ApiModelProperty annotation on the entity class is not being used correctly. Please make sure that the @ApiModelProperty annotation is properly applied to the fields of the entity class and the correct properties are specified. For example, the following is an example of using the @ApiModelProperty annotation:
-
@ApiModel(description = “Entity class for users”)
public class User {@ApiModelProperty(value = “User ID”, example = “1”)
private Integer id;@ApiModelProperty(value = “Username”, example = “John”)
private String username;// getters and setters
}
If none of the above solutions work, we suggest checking the compatibility of Swagger version and referring to Swagger documentation or community for related discussions and solutions.
