POST arrray with swagger UI

[Plamen Vasilev]

Hi Swaggers,

I have the following issue.
I have build rest api to create invoices.
The invoice have array of items
the definition is:

'definitions' => array(
    'InvoiceItems' => array(
        'type' => 'object',
        'required' => array(
            'name',
            'quantity',
            'price',
        ),
        'properties'=> array(
            'name' => array(
                'type' => 'string',
                'required' => true,
            ),
            'quantity' => array(
                'type' => 'float',
            ),
            'price' => array(
                'type' => 'float',
            ),
        )
    )
)

and the parameter is

'parameters' => array(
    array(
        'required' => true,
        'name' => 'items',
        'in' => 'formData',
        'description' => 'desc ..',
        "schema" => array(
            '$ref' => "#/definitions/InvoiceItems",
        ),
        'type' => 'array',
        'collectionFormat' =>'multi',
    ),
)

Is it possible when I do POST this array of arrays ?

The swagger UI shows me only an input and the schema definition on the right, but I cannot fill any of the elements

[Plamen Vasilev]

If I write into the input this

[{"name":"bananas", "quantity":1, "price":1}]

on the server the POST data is as a string

array(1) {
  ["items"]=>
  string(45) "[{"name":"bananas", "quantity":1, "price":1}]"
}

can I post this as array ? not as a string?

In Swagger 2, you cannot use models as values for form parameters, directly or in an array.

If it's a single parameter, you should treat it as a body parameter with the appropriate mime type.

When I set the "in" to "body" i get a textare in which I can paste the code and select content type, but If I change the "in" to "formData" i get only input field with no content type select option.

Is this a bug ?

You can't just change the "in" to "body" because the structure of "body" parameters is slightly different.
You need to move all the type definitions under the "schema" property. Take a look at our pet store for example.
