Swagger UI removes Content-Type params received from server

[vcabbage]

• swagger-ui version: 2.1.4
• a swagger file reproducing the issue: I don't think this is specific to a swagger file, but I can create one if necessary.

I'm working with an API that requires versioning in the Accept header. The required Accept header value is in the format application/json; version=1.

The curl examples produced by swagger-ui don't include these, just --header 'Accept: application/json', without the version parameter. I found that this header does not come from the swagger file, but from the Content-Type header received from the server.

After confirming that the server was responding with application/json; version=1 I looked more deeply and found that swagger-ui strips the first semi-colon and everything after it.

// if server is nice, and sends content-type back, we can use it
if (headers) {
    contentType = headers['Content-Type'] || headers['content-type'];
    if (contentType) {
        contentType = contentType.split(';')[0].trim();
    }
}

My question is whether this is desired behavior and whether it would be possible to at least make this stripping optional so that the curl command will be properly generated for APIs like this that require the Accept header param.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, the accept header that you're sending should be configured by the produces array for the operation--it will use whatever value you have when generating the request. The stripping of the response is different--that's after the request has been executed. You may want that value, but what I'm saying is that the first is the request and the splitting is the response.

Can you please confirm that you have the produces set correctly in your definition?

Thanks for the response. Below is an example of the produces config.

API commands issued from swagger UI itself work great. It's only the example curl commands that exhibit the issue.

"tags": [
    "auth"
],
"summary": "Get an API key",
"consumes": [
    "application/json"
],
"produces": [
    "application/json; version=1"
],

Got it, this is an issue in the curl rendering. I'll get this fixed.
