  2. Download Swag for Go by using:
$ go install github.com/swaggo/swag/cmd/swag@latest
  1. Run the Swag in your Go project root folder which contains main.go file, Swag will parse comments and generate required files(docs folder and docs/doc.go).
$ swag init
  1. Download swagger for Iris by using:
$ go get github.com/iris-contrib/swagger/v12@master

And import following in your code:

import "github.com/iris-contrib/swagger/v12" // swagger middleware for Iris 
import "github.com/iris-contrib/swagger/v12/swaggerFiles" // swagger embed files

Example Code:

package main

import (
    "github.com/kataras/iris/v12"

    "github.com/iris-contrib/swagger/v12"
    "github.com/iris-contrib/swagger/v12/swaggerFiles"

    _ "github.com/your_username/your_project/docs"
    // docs folder should be generated by Swag CLI (swag init),
    // you have to import it.
)

func main() {
    app := iris.New()

    config := swagger.Config{
        // The url pointing to API definition.
        URL:          "http://localhost:8080/swagger/doc.json",
        DeepLinking:  true,
        DocExpansion: "list",
        DomID:        "#swagger-ui",
        // The UI prefix URL (see route).
        Prefix:       "/swagger",
    }
    swaggerUI := swagger.Handler(swaggerFiles.Handler, config)

    // Register on http://localhost:8080/swagger
    app.Get("/swagger", swaggerUI)
    // And the wildcard one for index.html, *.js, *.css and e.t.c.
    app.Get("/swagger/{any:path}", swaggerUI)

    app.Listen(":8080")
}
  1. Run it, and navigate through http://localhost:8080/swagger/index.html, you should see the Swagger 2.0 API documentation page.

  2. If you want to disable swagger when some environment variable is set, use DisablingHandler instead of Handler.

swagger.DisablingHandler(swaggerFiles.Handler, "THE_OS_VARIABLE_NAME_HERE", config)
