swagger-ui is requesting the validator over http even when swagger-ui was loaded over https

[ftortega]

I believe the problem is in the following IF block

      // Default validator
      if(window.location.protocol === 'https') {
        this.model.validatorUrl = 'https://online.swagger.io/validator';
      }

in my browser (Chrome Version 43.0.2357.130 m (64-bit))
window.location.protocol returns https: with a colon :,
However even when I changed that line to:

 if((window.location.protocol).indexOf('https') !== -1) {

I still get a Mixed Content warning in the console saying that my page requested an insecure image.

You can disable the validator by using:

validatorUrl: null

Put this in the area where you render the SwaggerUi object

#1427 offers a partial fix. However, right now we don't really host the validator on https (it will redirect to http).

so no chance you will ever host a validator behind https? its pretty annoying.

we will move it under https. It just doesn't happen automatically, so it takes a bit of time.

Would be great if you could move the validator to https.

@guido4000 - it's already running on https as well.

@webron I do get redirected from
https://online.swagger.io/validator to
http://online.swagger.io/validator/
