Default server URL "/" is added automatically when parsing OpenAPI 3 spec

Open Talakafafi opened this issue 4 months ago • 0 comments

Description: When I parse an OpenAPI 3.0 document using new OpenAPIV3Parser().readContents(...), a default server with URL "/" is automatically added if no servers are defined. This causes issues when the document is later used in Swagger UI or serialized with Json.mapper().writeValueAsString(...), as the unwanted "/" base path appears in the output.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Use the swagger-parser library to read an OpenAPI spec that has no servers section.
  2. Parse using:
OpenAPI openApi = new OpenAPIV3Parser().readContents(openApiString).getOpenAPI();
String openApiJson = Json.mapper().writeValueAsString(openApi);
  1. Observe that the resulting openApiJson includes:
"servers": [
  {
    "url": "/"
  }
]

Expected Behavior: If no servers are defined in the input OpenAPI spec, the parser should not add a default server URL, or there should be an option to disable it.

Actual Behavior: A server with URL "/" is automatically inserted into the servers list.
