In an era where semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) are redefining our online interactions, the backbone supporting these advancements is often overlooked: vector databases. If you’re diving into applications like large language models, RAG, or any platform leveraging semantic search.

In the development process, the interface documentation is a crucial part. It not only facilitates developers in viewing and understanding the functionality and parameters of the interfaces but also helps in coordinating the work between the front-end and back-end development, thereby improving development efficiency. This article will introduce how to use Swagger in Spring Boot to automatically generate interface documentation.
