I'm working on a project in which I'm required to add swagger annotations to endpoints in a postman collection in a JSON file on GitHub. I'm a beginner in API documentation and I've not sure how to go about this. Any suggestions?

My requirement is to generate a Swagger File for a given ReST API URL. I have invoked the URLs using POSTMAN client and it was working fine.
However, for this URL to use in Informatica cloud, it's required to have associated Swagger file either json or yaml format.
could you please guide how we can do this?
I am using springfox for generating Swagger API documentation for REST APIs exposed by a spring boot application.
I need to add documentation for an API manually for which there is no REST controller, technically. How can I manually add to the Swagger API documentation? I want to do it once from the code.
You can create it using plugins mechanism. Create ApiListingScannerPlugin to dynamic added ApiDescription and OperationModelsProviderPlugin to dynamic added Definitions
I am building up a CDI/REST Environment as basis for several projects by using hammock. What I would like to have besides CDI and REST is also json schema for generating payload classes and an automatically generated REST API documentation via swagger ui.
I am now at the point where everything works (Weld3, Resteasy, Undertow, Swagger Core, Json Schema). The only thing missing is the integration of swagger UI into my hammock stack.
In another project I already worked with swagger UI. As far as I know it is based on HTML + JS with an entry point index.hml. How do I integrate this into my hammock stack. How to tell the undertow that there is a index.html and where to find it ?
I think my question is not only related to swagger, but to the idea to have the hammock stack with additional static html content.
John Ament has added a swagger module for Swagger 2.0-rc3 to Hammock 2.1-SNAPHOT (will be released as part of Hammock 2.1):
https://github.com/hammock-project/hammock/tree/master/swagger
As for hosting Swagger UI inside a Hammock app, you can add a few files from swagger-ui/dist/* to Hammock's static resources path:

I've developed a REST API anotated with Swagger annotations.
I've been able to show the api documentation on a swagger-ui application, very nice.
The problem:
I'm trying to generate clients acording this specification using the url provided by swagger acording my anotations.
The porblem is it seems to be imcompatible, or at least, I don't see how to do the swagger editor reads my url and from then on, generate clients. But swagger editor reports me about some errors...
It's possible to integrate my anotated swagger api with a swagger editor?
Thanks.
The question seems a bit confusing.
If you are trying to generate clients from your REST API Swagger spec, then you should take a look to Swagger-Codegen project.
Description of project:
swagger-codegen contains a template-driven engine to generate client code in different languages by parsing your Swagger Resource Declaration.
Link to repository: https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen/
Link to official page: http://swagger.io/swagger-codegen/
Not sure if I understand the question correctly. If you want to generate API clients online, you an use http://generator.swagger.io (besides http://editor.swagger.io). Here is an example to generate API client for Java:
curl -X POST -H "content-type:application/json" -d '{"swaggerUrl":"http://petstore.swagger.io/v2/swagger.json"}' http://generator.swagger.io/api/gen/clients/java
Swagger editor is used only for editing a swagger spec in either json or yml format. It does not deal with swagger annotations in any way. However, some of the server skeletons that are generated on the swagger-editor website contain annotations. The annotations are a way of reverse engineering your API to generate a json file so that swagger UI can render a webpage based on the public url path to your swagger.json file.
If you are maintaining a swagger spec json file anyways, the annotations aren't really needed, you might as well just serve up the raw swagger.json itself, rather than the json that is generated by the annotations.
As to your question, "Is it possible to integrate your API with swagger editor?"... Anything is possible, but I'm not sure as to how or why you want to integrate them.
I have a Dropwizard application with Swagger annotated Java resource classes. I'm also creating programatic REST resources which, of course, don't end up in the generated Swagger JSON. Is it possible to programmatically add operations via the Java Swagger API such that they end up in the generated JSON along with the annotated resources?
I tried using DefaultJaxrsApiReader.appendOperation but it had no effect.
I'm using com.wordnik:swagger-jaxrs_2.10:1.3.12
EDIT
I ended up just writing a Servlet filter to update the Swagger JSON response. It would be great to get #fehguy's suggestions working somehow. I think that swagger-jaxrs_2.10:1.3.12 isn't new enough to support those POJOs.
as of swagger-core-1.5.1-M1, you can build a swagger POJO which simply needs to be returned by your web application. That means, you can programmatically create the Swagger object and serve it up as JSON from your web service.
For examples of how to build a swagger pojo you can look at the source or an example (test) of building one.
You can also mutate the generated swagger object in your application. That means you can dynamically generate / modify swagger at runtime. There is an example in the swagger-codegen project, where the online code generator (swagger-generator) will detect what languages are enabled in the code generation logic via SPI, and update the swagger spec accordingly with the options:
