Spring Boot Actuator hypermedia support has been disabled by default via
c7c685f, but its documentation wasn't updated.
This commit updates the documentation related to the change.
See gh-7215
This commit introduces a new annotation, @AutoConfigureRestDocs,
which can be used to enable auto-configuration of Spring REST Docs.
The auto-configuration removes the need to use Spring REST Docs' JUnit
rule and will automatically configure MockMvc. Combined with the new
auto-configuration for MockMvc it allows a test class to be free of
boilerplate configuration:
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@WebMvcTest
@AutoConfigureRestDocs(outputDir = "target/generated-snippets",
uriScheme = "https", uriHost = "api.example.com",
uriPort = 443)
public class ExampleDocumentationTests {
@Autowired
private MockMvc mvc;
@Test
public void documentIndex() {
// …
}
}
For more advanced customization a RestDocsMockMvcConfigurationCustomizer
bean can be used.
If a RestDocumentationResultHandler is found in the context, it will
be passed to the ConfigurableMockMvcBuilder's alwaysDo method as part
of its customization.
Closes gh-5563
If spring-hateoas is on the classpath and an MvcEndpoint returns a
@ResponseBody it will be extended and wrapped into a Resource with links.
All the existing endpoints that return sensible JSON data can be extended
this way (i.e. not /logfile). The HAL browser will also be added as an
endpoint if available on the classpath. Finally, asciidocs for the
Actuator endpoints are available as a separate jar file, which if
included in an app will also generate a new (HTTP) endpoint.
Fixes gh-1390
