                    <outputDirectory>${project.build.outputDirectory}/docs</outputDirectory>
                </configuration>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <phase>compile</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>swagger-springweb</goal>
                        </goals>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</project>

In the compile phase the service.json and the other JSON files are generated to the outputDirectory. You need to place the JSON files in a webserver for use.

Swagger-UI

Download Swagger UI from: https://github.com/wordnik/swagger-ui/tree/master/dist Place it in an Apache web server folder. In the index.html file you can change the default url to location of the generated JSON files:

url: "http://localhost/swagger-files/service.json"

Apache might also need access control set, to allow for localhost to retrieve the JSON files:

Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Headers "origin, x-requested-with, content-type"
Header add Access-Control-Allow-Methods "PUT, GET, POST, DELETE, OPTIONS"
