Example values in containers

[santiagopoli]

I have an object defined as this:

public class CreationDTO {
   @ApiModelProperty(required = true)
   @JsonProperty("users") 
   private Set<Integer> users;
}

That object is shown in the UI as:

{
   "users": [0]
}

But I want it to be displayed as:

{
   "users": [1,2]
}

Is there a way to provide an example value for a container? I know there is an "example" property but it only accepts strings as values.

Thanks!

There isn't, no. This sounds more of an issue with the UI though. It shouldn't show your suggestion, but it should at least indicate it being a set.

If i define

public class Test {
   @ApiModelProperty(required = true, example = "Example Text")
   private String text;
}

The UI shows:

{ 
   "text":"Example Text"
}

Which is OK. The problem seems to be regarding values inside Lists.

I see. Well, perhaps we need to modify the example behavior but this is going to be a challenge as a free-form type.
