Expose functionality for disabling Swagger validation

[kfh]

It would be nice to have functionality for disabling the default swagger validation that's visible on the landing page. Since in our case we are running all services in a Kubernetes cluster behind a VPN the callback validation always fails and give us an orange box in the right corner that says: INVALID.

Hi,
i'm not quite sure which validation or orange box you mean. Do you maybe have a screenshot or know a swagger/openapi-documentation for this ? I'm also having diffuculties reproducing the problem with a minimal example (though i havent done too much experimentation yet).

Allright, best described by a screenshot probably.

So this is activated by default, i'm for sure not doing anything to enable that validation. If the box is clicked one is redirected to validator.swagger.io with an error message indicating the validation failed because it can't reach the server as explained initially.

Have a look at the validatorUrl parameter. I would suggest that you expose a thin convenience layer where you offer an boolean property ala validation which defaults to true

thanks for the hint. The validation doesnt happen when running on localhost, so i didnt catch it when testing.
I created a new version (0.7.0) making this configurable. The validation is now disabled by default, but can be enabled or set to use a custom (self-hosted) validator.

Thanx! Works great, already deployed the new version 👍
