Swagger Editor

Version of swagger editor embedded is: 2.9.9
You can get it from: here
If you want to use some other version:

• clone the repo
• replace the editor in ./swagger-editor
• Add codes below into the bottom of file swagger-editor/index.html
• npm install .

<script type="text/javascript">
    $("document").ready(function() {
        setTimeout(function() {
            var fileMenuTimer = setInterval(function() {
                // open file menu
                var fileMenu = $("#fileMenu");
                if (fileMenu.length) {
                    clearInterval(fileMenuTimer);
                    fileMenu.click();

                    // open example selector
                    var exampleButton = $("#open-example");
                    var exampleButtonTimer = setInterval(function() {
                        if (exampleButton.length) {
                            clearInterval(exampleButtonTimer);
                            exampleButton.click();

                            // click open button
                            setTimeout(function() {
                                $(".modal-large .btn-primary").click();
                            }, 1000);
                        }
                    }, 300);
                }
            }, 300);
        }, 1000);
    });
</script>
