Inline response objects

[rockxwre]

I am not sure if this question belongs here. But I will give it a try anyway.
I am using springdoc-openapi to generate an OAS3 yaml documentation based on my Spring controller/models.
What I want to achieve is to have an inline operation response. Something like this:

paths:
  /myoperation:
    get:
      ...
      responses:
        '200':
          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                required:
                  - count
                  - results
                type: object
                properties:
                  count:
                    type: integer
                  results:
                    type: array
		    ...

The annotations of the operation method in the controller class looks like this:

@ApiResponse(responseCode = "200",
             description = "OK",
             content = @Content(mediaType = "application/json", schema = @Schema(implementation = MyResponseDTO.class, requiredProperties = { "count", "results"} ))

and MyResponseDTO:

public class MyResponseDTO {

    @Schema(required = true, description = "")
    private long count;

    @ArraySchema(schema = @Schema(implementation = MyModel.class))
    private List<DTO> results;

    ... getters/setters

}

This results in a schema with:

...
      responses:
        200:
          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                $ref: '#/components/schemas/MyResponseDTO'

...
components:
    MyResponseDTO:
      required:
      - count
      type: object
      properties:
        count:
          type: integer
          format: int64
        results:
          type: array
          items:
            $ref: '#/components/schemas/MyModel'

The response content is a reference instead of an inline object. Is there a way I can annotate the response/schema so that it will appear inline in the documentation?

Hi,

We don't have any special feature related to inline object. We just rely on the official libraries.
You can ask your question, on the official swagger-core github:

Thank you for your reply.
I have asked the question again here.
