[erlang-questions] cowboy-swagger newbie question

[Mark Geib]

Thanks for the reply.

However, I am a bit confused as to how I document the different operations then. I need to be able to provide metadata for more than one GET, one for “list” and and one for “played”. The parameters, for example, are different for each operation.

BTW, I am new to RESTful endpoints, so it could be a poor choice for an example.

Mark.

However I need some help in how to provide the swagger metadata for an endpoint where I have a root url like /applicaiton/rest/file/[:op]/[arg1]/[arg2] that I want to provide documentation for. I assume that I want to use the swagger “basePath” and “paths” attributes but can’t seem to make that work. I have tried the following in all the forms I can image:
