This is a module adds support for [Play 2]((https://www.playframework.org) projects. It is written in Scala but can be used with either Java- or Scala-based Play applications.

• Play 2.3.9
• Scala 2.11.6
• SBT 0.13.8

You can depend on pre-built libraries in maven central by adding the following dependency:

resolvers += Resolver.bintrayRepo("markusjura", "maven")

libraryDependencies += "com.markusjura" %% "swagger-play2" % "1.3.7"

There are just a couple steps to integrate your Play2 app with swagger.

1. Add the resource listing to your routes file:

GET     /api-docs.json        controllers.ApiHelpController.getResources

2. Annotate the Play actions in your controller with Swagger annotations. This allows the Swagger framework to create the api-declaration automatically:

@Api(value = "/auth", description = "Authentication operations")
object AuthController extends SecuredController {

  @ApiOperation(
    value = "Authenticates the user.",
    notes = "Authenticates the user with a given password. Valid usernames are `user-1` to `user-10`. The password is `pass`",
    nickname = "auth",
    httpMethod = "POST")
  @ApiImplicitParams(Array(
      new ApiImplicitParam(name = "body", value = "JSON body must contain a username and password.", required = false,
        dataType = "application/json", paramType = "body", defaultValue = authBodyDefaultValue)))
    @ApiResponses(Array(
      new ApiResponse(code = 200, message = "Username and password is valid. Returns a token. The token contains the encrypted username."),
      new ApiResponse(code = 400, message = "Username or password not supplied."),
      new ApiResponse(code = 401, message = "Password is incorrect."),
      new ApiResponse(code = 401, message = "Username doesn't exist.")))
  def auth = Action.async { request =>
    ...
  }
}  

What this does is the following:

• Tells swagger that the methods in this controller should be described under the /api/auth path
• The Routes file tells swagger that this API listens to /auth
• Describes the operation as a GET with the documentation Authenticates the user. with more detailed notes Authenticates the user..
• Takes the body as application/json
• Returns error codes 200, 400 and 401, with the messages provided

In the routes file, you then wire this api as follows:

# API Documentation
# Swagger - Root Resources Listing
GET     /                           controllers.ApiDocController.view
GET     /api                        controllers.ApiHelpController.getResources
GET     /api/auth                   controllers.ApiHelpController.getResource(path = "/auth")

This will "attach" the /api-docs.json/pet api to the swagger resource listing, and the method to the getPetById method above

Swagger for play has two types of ApiParams--they are ApiParam and ApiParamImplicit. The distinction is that some paramaters (variables) are passed to the method implicitly by the framework. ALL body parameters need to be described with ApiParamImplicit annotations. If they are queryParams or pathParams, you can use ApiParam annotations.
