RestRserve VS springdoc-openapi

You can then do cool stuff with that docker image like use this awesome package to build web apis if you're clever with your docker entrypoints.

The issue is that the springdoc-openapi BOM brings an old version of the Spring Framework 6.0, which is incompatible with Spring Boot 3.2. There are several ways to solve this problem: update springdoc, change the order of BOM imports, but the best, in my opinion, is to avoid using the io.spring.dependency-management plugin.

I would suggest using Springdoc

The SpringDoc library comes with lots of annotations to tune your REST API specification precisely. Anyway, that's out of context of this article.

I found SpringDoc, a library that automates the generation of the spec from the source code. It relies on annotations for textual bits (like tags and descriptions), but it also infers stuff from Spring annotations.

This is an API made with Spring Web, uses springdoc-openapi-ui to expose a swagger-ui on http://localhost:8080/swagger-ui/index.html

Libraries like Springdoc or Springfox can do this. These libraries generate the OpenAPI documentation based on your controllers (+ you can apply the OpenAPI annotations on your controllers). This documentation is then exposed as a REST API, for Springdoc these can be found at /v3/api-docs.

Retrieving all endpoints of a service isn't the goal of a service registry like Eureka, so no, you can't get all endpoints of a service. You can use a library like Springfox or Springdoc to enable Swagger/OpenAPI for your project. These libraries generate a JSON REST API (and a user interface) to view all your endpoints. You can even provide additional information (eg. default values, descriptions, ...) by adding some additional annotations on your controllers.

The springdoc-openapi helps automating the generation of API documentation using Spring Boot projects GitHub - springdoc/springdoc-openapi

Our microservice accept http requests: For swagger used Swagger OpenAPI 3. The bank account REST controller, which accept requests, validate it using Hibernate Validator, then call command or query service. The main reason for CQRS gaining popularity is the ability to handle reads and writes separately due to severe differences in optimization techniques for those much more distinct operations.
