Requirement: hidden password for APiParam

[shanling2004]

Not sure currently swagger can support to hidden the password in plaintext.
Currently, we 're using swagger-annotations_2.10. For ApiParam definition, we don't see any field to support hidden param value in plaintext.

Good idea. In the JSON Schema we could do something like this:

{
   "type": "string",
   "format": "password"
}

We just need to add some logic to the annotations to pick up the format hint. I'll keep this open as a feature.

Hi, since we now have a separate repo for the spec, do you mind opening a ticket there to add a password format for string types?

[fehguy]

This is now supported in both the core and javascript libraries for develop_2.0

in the APIParam annotation, should we use dataType="password"?

[fehguy]

good question, i'll reopen this as a reminder to document. dataType must be a fully-qualified class, so I'm certain that password is not correct.

I need to integrate something like this in swagger, i.e Masking the password fields in swagger-ui.

My code looks like this, And the question being what should be added here to mask the "name" field?
