Previously, the snippet for documenting a request’s parameters was
referred to as the query parameters snippet. This was misleading as the
snippet would actually document anything in the request’s parameters
map, not just parameters from the request’s query string.
This commit renames the snippet and the associated templates, etc so
that it is now known as the request parameters snippet. This provides
a more accurate reflection of it being able to document all of a
request’s parameters, not just those from its query string.
Closes gh-104
This commit updates the API to improve its extensibility and
readability.
SnippetWritingResultHandler has been replaced with a more general
purpose Snippet interface. Snippets are now provided to the main
document method using varargs rather than the various with… methods
that were previously used. As a result a custom Snippet implementation
can now be used in exactly the same way as any of the built-in
snippets:
this.mockMvc.perform(get("/"))
.andExpect(status().isOk())
.andDo(document("index-example",
links(
linkWithRel("notes").description("…"),
linkWithRel("tags").description("…")),
responseFields(
fieldWithPath("_links").description("…")),
yourCustomSnippet()));
Control of the snippets that are generated by default is now available
via RestDocumentationConfigurer:
this.mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup(this.context)
.apply(documentationConfiguration().snippets()
.withDefaults(curlRequest(), yourCustomSnippet()))
.build();

This commit adds support for associating custom attributes with the
generation of a particular snippet. The attributes are included in
the model during snippet rendering allowing them to be referenced from
a custom snippet template. Among other things, this makes it possible
to provide a configurable title for snippets that produce a code
block.
Closes gh-77
This commit adds support for associating custom attributes with field,
link, and query parameter descriptors. These attributes are then
included in the model during snippet rendering. Coupled with a custom
snippet template, this enables the inclusion of extra column(s) in the
generated tables.
Closes gh-70
