Add TrustStore Support for Fetching OpenAPI via HTTPS with Self-Signed Certificates
This Pull Request introduces enhancements to the plugin to support using a custom TrustStore. This feature is crucial for fetching OpenAPI documentation over HTTPS in environments that utilize self-signed certificates, especially in local development setups.
Changes Made
-
TrustStore Configuration: Added properties
trustStoreandtrustStorePasswordto allow specifying a customTrustStore. -
SSL Context Adjustment: Modified the SSL context setup within the plugin to include the
TrustStore, ensuring self-signed certificates are trusted during SSL handshakes. WhenTrustStoreis not provided default SSL context is used.
Motivation
In our current setup, fetching OpenAPI documentation over HTTPS fails due to untrusted self-signed certificates. By enabling TrustStore configuration, developers can easily add their self-signed certificates to the TrustStore, circumventing the SSL handshake issue.
Testing
- Tested fetching OpenAPI documentation in a local environment with a self-signed certificate, ensuring no SSL handshake errors occurred.
- Verified backward compatibility and that the changes do not affect existing functionalities.
- A new test case that validates the functionality of OpenAPI fetch using the
TrustStore.
Usage
Set the new properties in the application's configuration to point to the custom TrustStore and its password:
openApi {
apiDocsUrl.set("https://localhost:9000/api/docs")
outputDir.set(file("$buildDir/docs"))
outputFileName.set("swagger.json")
waitTimeInSeconds.set(10)
trustStore.set("keystore/truststore.p12")
trustStorePassword.set("changeit".toCharArray())
groupedApiMappings.set(
["https://localhost:8080/v3/api-docs/groupA" to "swagger-groupA.json",
"https://localhost:8080/v3/api-docs/groupB" to "swagger-groupB.json"]
)
customBootRun {
args.set(["--spring.profiles.active=special"])
}
}
Request for Review
I kindly request a thorough review of these changes, focusing particularly on the SSL context modifications and the implementation of the new properties. Any feedback or suggestions to further optimize this feature are welcome.
