The following methods and tools are commonly used to customize the appearance and behavior of Swagger UI in Python projects:
- Configuration via files or parameters — for example, in
flasggerordrf-yasg, you can set the title, description, API version, and themes. - UI customization — you can modify CSS, add logos, change color schemes, hide or show certain elements.
- Using Swagger UI Options — parameters passed during Swagger UI initialization, such as
docExpansion,defaultModelsExpandDepth,filter, and others. - Editing the OpenAPI specification — modifying descriptions, adding examples, and configuring schemas for more convenient display.
Example of configuring Swagger UI in Flask with flasgger:
from flasgger import Swagger
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
swagger_config = {
"headers": [],
"specs": [
{
"endpoint": 'apispec_1',
"route": '/apispec_1.json',
"rule_filter": lambda rule: True,
"model_filter": lambda tag: True,
}
],
"static_url_path": "/flasgger_static",
"swagger_ui": True,
"specs_route": "/swagger/"
}
swagger_template = {
"info": {
"title": "My API",
"description": "API description",
"version": "1.0.0"
},
"host": "localhost:5000",
"basePath": "/",
"schemes": ["http", "https"]
}
swagger = Swagger(app, config=swagger_config, template=swagger_template)
Thus, the configuration depends on the library used, but generally involves changing parameters and templates, as well as the ability to add custom styles and behaviors.
